Rory Gallagher - Laundromat
This is a live performance from Irish blues guitarist Rory Gallagher. The performance is from '71, and Rory plays the song "Laundromat" from his debut solo album released in 1971.
It's a great simple blues shuffle song, with a lot of amazing lead licks by Gallagher. The tempo and speed of the song also kinda makes it sound a little like a ZZ Top song, not completely similar, the riff does resemble ZZ Top's "La Grange" a little bit.
It has a great groove and it's a great performance.
Enjoy ; )

Johnny Copeland & Johnnie Johnson - Down Home Blues
This is a performance from New York in 1991, it features Texas blues man Johnny Copeland and piano player Johnnie Johnson who is most famous for playing with rock 'n' roll legend Chuck Berry.
Copeland isn't the most famous blues artist and he's probably most famous for playing with Stevie Ray Vaughan on several songs at Vaughan's 1985 Montreux concert.
The song "Down Home Blues" was originally recorded by blues artist Z.Z. Hill. Z.Z. isn't the most famous blues artist, but Down Home Blues has become quite a classic song and is probably his most famous song.
The song has also been covered by Etta James and many other artists.
Enjoy ; )

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Change It
This is a performance from blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan, it's him performing the song "Change It". It's one of Stevie's best, it has a melancholic feel to it, but still sort of a sad cheerful nature, true soul, no one but Stevie could do this. It was released on Stevie's 1985 album "Soul to Soul".
I don't think they performed it live that often, I've only been able to find this one clip that's live from Farm Aid, but other than that I don't think they played it live that often.
It's a great song, and a good live performance that catches the soul and tension that is on the original recording, truly great.
Enjoy ; )
