Another dazzling performance by Joe Louis Walker and the Bosstalkers on this Big Joe Turner number.

mark2058- Well, Joe Turner's song was actually named Roll'em Pete. Awesome performance anyway
****
pixaninny- Sorry mark but I've performed with Joe and he told me himself that it was called 'Rebecca' when I asked him. Just checked again in my collection and it sounds like the same song to me.

755sed- Live at Slims vol.1 and vol.2 on Hightone Records are worth checking out. Henry Oden is a top notch player. Jeff Lewis and my brother,Tim Devine are the horn players.Joe is one of San Fanciscos best blues players out there.He's the real deal folks! Go See em live and try to keep from dancing!

Agent007plus- He was the top act of the Saturday lineup at the 2-day Blues By the Bay in Eureka, CA on Aug 30 '08, and he was blazing just like this vid. Also saw him in Fair Oaks, CA in '07 at NorCal Blues Fest. He's one of the top live blues acts out there.

jonnyjamesblues-
shes got eyes like diamonds
her eyes they shine like gold
shes got eyes like diamonds
her eyes they shine like gold
all I want is a little love before I get to old
the moon looks good
its shinnin through the trees
the moon looks good
its shinnin through the trees
dont my woman look nice right here beside me

ThePrettyMachineVids-Klondike gold. From the old gold-panners.

ibm650- @jonnyjamesblues
Minor correction: the first verse starts like this:
"She's got eyes like diamonds, they shine like Klondike gold"
This is one of those classic old blues lines whose originator is unknown. Taj Mahal copped it in his version of "Corrina, Corrina".

lamiamano - Pay your respect for a great musician and an excellent bluesman.
