thank you, i was wondering who he is

The real shame about R.L. is that just as he was starting to get widely noticed and making some money, his health started to fail him. Well, that's the Blues, I guess. Credit to Fat Possum Records for sticking with him and making him more widely known.

I saw him at the Horseshoe Toronto around 93 maybe ,taped it. but then lost the fucking tape somehow in a move! So glad I was able to see him and relive that show several times before I lost it . Awesome show with full band including his son too.Me and my buddy went backstage and we were smoking joints with him, he was so cool .

This 84 year old white Texan still loves that music and always will!

I've watched this at least 30 times. All Burnside's music is addictive. He's a person to study. A real musician.

I asked him who his favorite guitar players were, predictably he said John Mayer, Clapton, Joe Bonamassa and Stevie Ray Vaughan. My response to him was that "you're missing about 50 years of music prior to those guys!". This kid had never even heard of Bo Diddley! Or Brownie McGhee, or Freddy King and Albert King....much less Blind Willie Johnson, Fred McDowell, Tampa Red and so on.

I will never forget the first time I heard R L Burnside. I went to our local Fred Meyers store to drop off some shoes for repair. I heard this blues singer on the radio, and a young man of about twenty working there told me, "That's R L Burnside. I can't believe you've never heard of him. He's a famous blues singer." This was about ten years ago, and I never forgot him. That is pure, raw, beautiful talent!!!

If you know his story, we are lucky we heard that shout at all. He was a sharecropper in a house with a dirt floor and couldn't afford a guitar for a while. Recorded his first songs on a borrowed guitar when he was "discovered" by a musicologist in 1977.

Heaviest metal blues. so blue, it's psychedelic !

Northern Mississippi Hill Country Blues has a different vibe on it's own like the Delta. More of a hypnotic trance rhythm.

we all love Mr Burnside

I’ve heard this song before. I’ve never heard it played this good. Remarkable heavy blues musician with a signature sound.

I was lucky enough to see RL 'live' in a small club in Glasgow, Scotland in 1999, incredible talent with brilliant backing from Cedric and Kenny. No earthly reason why RL shouldn't be mentioned alongside John Lee Hooker, et al as one of the blues greats.

Oh man, this has a groove. RIP Mr. Burnside.

Junior Kimbrough was my introduction to the Hill Country Blues, but R.L. made me fall in love with it.

The drummer fucking rules!

Mr RL Burnside is being shown on u tube in takes at his home back yard. Pure genius and talent unbridled. A true music maker. A true sense of his poor upbringing I presume in the deep south of America. His love of blues and his talent is a joy to listen to. A real gentlemen.

RL should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame . Real Performer . That’s called a riff .Like shelling peas for the great man .

I love this redition of rollin and tumblin, and I love north hill country blues. I've noticed in all my favourite music, my most favourite is all very repetitive, more like rhythms than melodies. Maybe it's the cave man in me, but it's beautifully simple and simply beautiful.

The blues is the best genre no fancy shredddy stuff, just simple rythmn and soul

It's kind of sad thinking about how much respect this guy had in Europe while he was generally unknown throughout his career in his home country, along with the other Hill Country Blues guys. It would have been awesome to see this...three legit Hill Country musicians. I think they're even neighbors!
