Wow. Very few Jimmy Reed live videos out there. Great find!

It may be amazing.
But they should have taken more time to tune up properly.
My god, sounds like they didn't agree what key the song was in.
(and tempo too...)  :sad:

Jimmy wasn't concerned about such trivial things.  :)

No he was a little Chuck Berry=ish.
I'll play you pay.

At one point his son was playing bass in the band , Jimmy was drinking , a lot . He fell over on stage ,  the band was pretty fed up with him and didn't make a move . His son lit up a cigarette . About a minute later Jimmy came to , looked around , glared at his son and said "No smoking on the bandstand"

How I hate your rigid, compartmentalized and utterly unartistc view on things, Holländer! In your next life, you'll be reborn deutsch (no, not Dutch). :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

  This makes me so very happy. Badfinger is one of my favorite bands. I've seen Tommy with Jazz Basses, Nonreverse Thunderbirds even a EB1 I don't think I've ever seen Tommy with a EB3! As Uwe states there is no mistaking the sound. Back in the early 80's I would run into Tommy from time to time and spent quite a bit of time chatting , even got to play his EB1.

Don't know if this has been previously posted here. Alan Lancaster and an early EB-0 with added bridge pickup:
