THANK YOU VIEB FOR UPLOADING ONE OF THE GREATEST VIDEO'S EVER DONE.
ITS FURRY AT HIS BEST.
DOING ALL KINDS OF THINGS TO THAT GUITAR.
PLAYING AND SINGING LIKE NO MAN CAN
when you get right down to the bottom of it all, old-school blues will always remain. this man will be singing until the end of time.
glory, glory hallelujah
when I die lord, when I die.
This version of Lay My Burdon Down is right down from the heart. If you love music, how can you not fall for this? Sure hope Furry got to see his Jesus, maybe he saw him in this song.
LOL, that reminds me of the story Sonny Terry told when they wanted him to appear in a Broadway show. He was told that he'd have to play the song the exact same way every night, Sonny replied, "I ain't never played a song the same way twice", then he was told about the money, and he said "YEAH !!!, I can play it the same way, EVERY NIGHT !!!!", Lol, you gotta love Sonny, Rest in Peace Furry and Sonny.
My daddy has been gone for 28 years. He used to bring home Furry Lewis records from the library when I was in 2nd grade & we would listen...to Odetta also. Those are the two musicians I actually remember from the 2nd grade. I now have a grandson in the 4th grade so they made a real strong impression on me! After seeing this all I can think of ...besides how great he is...is "I sure wish daddy could see this!" We had the records, but I sure wish daddy could see this! Thank you.
