I saw him live ,at Penn State in 1967, with Waterman hovering over him, in a small auditorium, only about 25 guys attending,; I was so close to him, and what I heard and saw changed the musical and cultural arc of my life. If not a god, he is one of God's dearest prophets.

This performance is an excerpt from the documentary film "Devil Got My Woman, Blues at Newport" directed by folklorist Alan Lomax. At Lomax's request in 1966 the Newport Folk Festival Board set up a replica of a Southern juke-joint in which the older Blues performers could play and be filmed. For several, including Son House and Skip James, it was early in their return to live performance after decades of not playing music. The 61-minute film is available on DVD from Rounder/Universal. As it's a legitimate licensed release, it's possible that the various performers' estates may receive compensation.

This was the same show where House got very drunk and started Heckling Howlin Wolf as he was beginning to perform, i think that really messed with Wolf coz Son House was obviously a man he looked up to very very much. Dick Waterman talked about how he was very vigilant in controlling House's Alcoholism while he was his manager and this must've been one of the few times where Waterman lost control. curious to see all the footage from this film to see how that whole scene played out

This is from a tour of the world by SON HOUSE, circa 1941/1942. Recorded in the back room of Clarks' country store in Robinsonville by Lake Cormorant in Mississippi, with John Lomax, this is the only recording of Son House with a band.
Amen, no one plays like this anymore. Our loss, this is magnificent, I feel more from ten seconds of this than all modern music. We don't even have a good poser copying stuff like this. The torch was passed, and dropped on the side of the road in the ditch. And NOBODY has what it takes to pick it up and carry it on. RIP Son, thanks for the soul strafing blast of gut wrenching angst.

I don't quite remember when I bought a brand new, shrink wrapped Son House LP record with this song on it; I think it was around 1976. It was right after I had bought a Mississippi Fred McDowell ("I Do NOT PLAY NO ROCK and ROLL) for $1.00 at the Foothill College Bookstore, back in 1975. I love the Blues & I love Son House on this particular song; among some others by Son House. In 2014, I started taking Blues Bass Guitar lessons for about 7 years; playing with Blues bands at a Downtown club in Sunday Jam sessions (until Covid came along & shut everything down, that is...). Oh well. I just want to say that the "REAL" 'Blues feeling' that I've been able to achieve or have with my own Bass-playing was acquired by my first listening to Son House & Guitar players who "influenced" Son House.

That's the best Fred McDowell record, and my favorite. And Son House, while not my favorite blues man, is the greatest of them all, I don't care what anyone says. Without him, there would be no idea of bottleneck slide. No Johnsons, no Howlin' Wolf's, no Leadbellys. It started with him and I am so happy it didn't die with him.

I don't know how Vevo operates, but Son House died in 88, which means his music is still in copyright. Therefore, if there is an estate of Son House (relatives and so on), they should be receiving royalties from this. If so, it's preferable to the unofficial uploads from which they will receive nothing at all.

The Great Son House
Wow as a kid during the seventies, i remember my Uncle Eugene talking about Son House. Thanks for this video.
I was fortunate enough to see him play live and he just blew you away!
performed with more heart than seen
Respect to him and to his family
This is so haunting, beautiful and rare at the same time. Robert Johnson was Definitely chasing this type of blues playing. First time ever heard a guitar cry in black and white footage!
This is real music with soul and feeling love it this is what a lot of rock and roll is based on but nobody plays with this much emotion now a days

This is from a tour of the world by SON HOUSE, circa 1941/1942. Recorded in the back room of Clarks' country store in Robinsonville by Lake Cormorant in Mississippi, with John Lomax, this is the only recording of Son House with a band.

Amen, no one plays like this anymore. Our loss, this is magnificent, I feel more from ten seconds of this than all modern music. We don't even have a good poser copying stuff like this. The torch was passed, and dropped on the side of the road in the ditch. And NOBODY has what it takes to pick it up and carry it on. RIP Son, thanks for the soul strafing blast of gut wrenching angst.

"no one plays like this anymore"and"We don't even have a good poser copying stuff like this",totally agree with you,we are far,very very far from that powerful,intense,moving and beautiful original blues stuff...not mentioning the voice style completely lost today,and maybe it is kind of natural:other times,other story, other music...to me this is forever in the Music Paradise,a kind of eternal and timeless place for our beloved players who bring tears in our eyes when we listen to them...and I find today we have fantastic players in all styles,they just do something different and,no doubt to me,great!

Besides stopping me in my tracks and blowing my mind with its naked powerful beauty, it reminded me of what keith once said about all guitar players just being singers at heart.

I just recently discovered him at a African American music historical museum in Nashville, TN when I saw him I immediately had chills. He looks identical to my grandfather and his brothers. I believe he is a ancestor of mines. ♥️ I feel blessed to experience these live performances of him. Blessing on to him ♥️
son fucking house, impossible to listen to without getting goosebumps.
Son House is the baddest vocalist ever! There are guitar players, but nobody belts it out like Son House!
The key to the blues is not to put a performance but play to heal the hurt
This one is unexplainable this touch your whole soul.Thank you SONHOUSEVEVO for uploading,
not named Scary Delta Blues, plus video started after actual original video starts. but it shows the sho nuff, raw genius of SonHouse

I don't quite remember when I bought a brand new, shrink wrapped Son House LP record with this song on it; I think it was around 1976. It was right after I had bought a Mississippi Fred McDowell ("I Do NOT PLAY NO ROCK and ROLL) for $1.00 at the Foothill College Bookstore, back in 1975. I love the Blues & I love Son House on this particular song; among some others by Son House. In 2014, I started taking Blues Bass Guitar lessons for about 7 years; playing with Blues bands at a Downtown club in Sunday Jam sessions (until Covid came along & shut everything down, that is...). Oh well. I just want to say that the "REAL" 'Blues feeling' that I've been able to achieve or have with my own Bass-playing was acquired by my first listening to Son House & Guitar players who "influenced" Son House.

That's the best Fred McDowell record, and my favorite. And Son House, while not my favorite blues man, is the greatest of them all, I don't care what anyone says. Without him, there would be no idea of bottleneck slide. No Johnsons, no Howlin' Wolf's, no Leadbellys. It started with him and I am so happy it didn't die with him.
Thanks for this. One of the Elements.

I don't know how Vevo operates, but Son House died in 88, which means his music is still in copyright. Therefore, if there is an estate of Son House (relatives and so on), they should be receiving royalties from this. If so, it's preferable to the unofficial uploads from which they will receive nothing at all.
