Reminds me of something I saw in high school. When I was a senior we had to deliver flowers to a local nursing home. Eventually we all ended up at one room listening to a very old black gentleman singing and playing harmonica. The nurse told us his name was Napoleon Strickland and that he was a very famous blues musician who had travelled all over the world. We sat there for an hour listening to him play. He passed away about 2 months after that, but it was truly a unique experience.

They did understand! It was Pinetop's event. They were just coming out on the porch to listen to him. I was there!

I wonder, these young people, did they have any idea who this gentleman really was-helped create American music history.

What a fine gentleman. 95 years old. Thanks for the music, Pinetop Perkins!

A master of the Blues!! This is we’re it’s started! Deep stuff going on there.

Well, no one there understand there is a LEGEND playing for them. He´s playing and his voice......We at least have enjoyed Pinetop. We who know,

Of course they did. It was the Pinetop Homecoming Celebration. They were there because of him!

Pinetop Perkins was one of the blues legends. He was one of the great pianists in the Legendary Blues Band, which accompanied Muddy Waters.

Graaaaaaande, Pinetop Perkins. RIP, maestro. Greeeeat Pinetop Perkins. RIP, master.

I shook and held those hands so many times I can't count. Miss you Top. I got to listen to this almost daily, at times at his home. Love ya pine

What those eyes have seen...

I remember buying chess records artists and always being happy when I saw Pinetop on the session credits because you knew it was gonna be good. Him and Otis Spann.

"...and that kids is how its done"♫

People walking away!!!! I wish I was there to se him perform. One of the last legends of the great delta blues.

Man, I'll be happy if I can remember what I had for breakfast at 95. What a master!

I'm not sure that anyone standing there completely understood the extent of what was going on in front of them there.

@@deeznuttz905 well if you'd spent much of your life playing with grammy-winning blues artists as I have, one tends to see a lot of people who have no idea... and thus is a problem with the blues today... less young are into it, and it's carried by a lot of us older folks. That's pretty much all I was saying.

@@pinetopperkinsfoundation thank you for clarifying! There was no description other than the title saying, "...at the store." It appeared to be the kind of situation I mentioned. I'm glad those were all fans! I have a picture of Pinetop, Buddy Guy, and me from 2010. I treasure that picture tremendously! (I'm a musician from Chicago)

​@@christophersorensen6522opened for Pinetop before he passed at Chicago blues fest. Wasn't looking to good but still had the smile and cane.

Fantastic!! Still got it at the ripe old age of 95 in this video.. a true musical Legend!!

master of his craft. complete blues clinic!!!

Black s deserve every musicians respect there would not be any jazz ,no country, no rock, ( CHUCK BERRY) Fats Domino no boogie woogie. When I first heard little Richard I I picked up coke bottles, until I had enough money to buy the single, thank you all Black artists for creating my life.

He is legend

THIS IS AMAZING I HOPE THE LORD CAN LET ME PLAY FOR PEOPLE AND MAKE THEM SMILE UNTIL IM 100!!!

I used to watch him at Bucks in Northern Indiana. What a delightful sight. Nice to have had the pleasure of meeting him.

The Hopson Commissary, I’ve spent a lot of time on that porch thanks to Pinetop. Just wish I could have met him 😥

His voice aged so well, so much soul

100year perfection!!!

Luv it ! Playing such bodacious boogie woogie at the age of 95 ! Bless his heart !! THANKS for sharing, Eric !! :-)

Bon blues comme toujours ! J'adore ! Encore et encore...

So much Sole and feeling. Lovely to hear a Legend. Big resect from Edinburgh Scotland.

rest in peace 🕊️

I recall seeing him play once in the 1990's. Think he was a guest (?) of the fabulous Thunderbirds at Antones in Austin Texas. Thank you sir for making me happy all these years.

And that is how you play the blues. My piano lesson for the day is over

My heart n ears thank ya...!!

Nice groovin' bud ❤😊

I have expected the blues brothers to hop out that car parked next to the building. Loved him in the movie 🎥.

Very cool, thank you for uploading.

MY GOD.

They needed more dancin' down at the store porch that day! What a treat.

AWESOME!!!! THANX FOR HAVING THIS.

Brilliant

Once you get the blues, you can never shake them

95? Good gracious. What a fantastic piece of video, that lead in How Long Blues is just vintage. So damn good.

Just happy to be here, cheah! Miss ya Pinetop!

Las manos sagradas de pinetop Perkins A genius of blues, great!

Amazing

Great stuff. I wonder how many opportunities I casually walked by in my life. On second thought, I guess I'd rather not know.

Love it he’s amazing

i saw him in Whistler bc and the base of blackcomb awesome player

Love the way he eyeballs the camera 💙

Ty sir...love ya

He is very good.

I wish he was on a better-sounding piano! He still rocked it- best ever!!!

I hope you play How Long in heaven too!

Wow

Clássico maravilha

🌟🥰💞😻🌟!!!!

The audience wearing what would have been considered raggedy underwear 90 years ago

E said: If you end a tune like that it's 50 bucks-so Pinetop would have to pay 200 to E.

PIne. Trees. Pinetop. Pinetop Perkins invented carbon credits.

Great Music master, but I hate it when people flock around someone like that, with their cameras and phones destroying the moment. NOT TO MENTION THE ONES WHO HAD NO CLUE WHO HE WAS Granted it is not as bad as the kids with their phones out when a person gets hit by a bus...instead of trying to save their life, but still. Same problem, everyone wants to be the next great movie maker smh.

One dark-skinned person in the whole damn video, and him the only one amongst you with a shred of talent. Never change, Mississippi. The rest of us need something to push against.

Eden Brent was in the video, pretty sure that was her keyboard. If you think she doesn't have any talent, you are very mistaken. She learned from one of Pinetop's contemporaries, Boogaloo Ames.

Holy Shit! The people just walking by oblivious to the genius they were in front of!
