Happy Birthday blues man!

Many thanks!

Awesome, just awesome.

Dear Willie Dixon,
Thank you for Led Zeppelin. I could have done without Poison. You always have to go too far.
Sincerely,
Howie

We owe that man a whole lotta love.

I read that as "Willie Nelson" at first, and before re-reading the age, I was like, "NOOOOOOOO!!!!! I'VE GOT TICKETS TO HIS PICNIC ON FRIDAY!"

Seeing Willie Nelson play live before he dies is one of my goals in life. As of Friday, that goal will be accomplished.

Awesome! thanks for this.

Happy birthday bluesman!! Thanks for the tunes.

I had the distinct joy of getting to see Willie Dixon play at the Beloit Blues Festival back in 1970 (or possibly it was 72, two concerts, too long ago). He was just full of joy when he was playing the upright bass.

I can't think of a more prolific songwriter in the blues genre.

Well, I'm off to Itunes to download this man's entire catalog. Never heard that one before. Totally awesome.

Subby here. Glad you peeps enjoyed it.

dhudd - I'm glad you got to see him live.

never saw him live, have quite a few of his albums (you know those flat plastic discs) and I also picked up a cd compilation a few years back.
guy was farking brilliant.

Jimmy Page hangs his head in shame.

Thanks subby! That's a good 'un. Never saw him, but I saw John Lee Hooker, pre-commercial/duets BS stuff.

because no one ever listens to records anymore. It's not like we don't have a story every month about records making a comeback and being on the verge of killing mp3. Wait all that stuff I said did happen, you are a fagtard.

Truly the best kind of music made. Not many like him today. Maybe Elvis Costello.

wow a great music video on fark! i'm very pleased! this will make up for the next 10 crappy Rush videos that are posted.

Wow, that guy can shred.

When Willie was writing songs for both Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, each would claim that he was giving the best songs to the other. To remedy the situation, Willie used reverse psychology on them. While unveiling a song he'd written for Muddy, he'd say it was for the Wolf. Muddy would scream like a stuck pig that it should be HIS song. And, so it was.

Can anyone here enlighten me as to how one can listen to youtube music without the buffering delays?

wow, i never heard or saw him play a standard guitar, only a bass, from like back in the 1930's.

Halfmast Trousers:Wow, that guy can shred.

lol

Did he bite a bat's head off?

I suppose you could pause the video and let it buffer for a bit. You on dial up, friend?

This guy stole so much from the egyptians........

wow. thx.
