Jimmy Reed - When I Woke Up This Morning Lyrics

When I played with Detroit Junior, every once in a while he would just turn to the band and yell out, "Jimmy Reed!" What more needed to be said.

As bad as as badass can be !

Damn he’s great🥃🥃🥃🥃

Damn loves the blues🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💋💋💋💋💞🌹❤️🤗🔥🔥🔥💋👩‍🦰🔥💥🍇🍓🍷🥃🕉

Oh yes. I grew up listening to Mr. Reed. This just makes me feel good.

I love it

Gregg Allman brought me here.He's parked out back.

Jimmy Reed the coolest of the cool

Whoever the hell gave this a 👎 knows sh*t about music.

yeah baby do it .....

JR is the greatest blues singer. He never got the credit he deserved for the great songs he wrote and sang. I grew up listening to his music.

And many of his earlier hit blues songs are not just the standard blues structurally either. However, after the success of "Baby What You Want Me To Do", he did pretty much fall into a formula.

Sarah Lundy So why doesn't he channel have any content Sarah ?

That's why his music will never be forgotten I've been listening to jimmy Reed sense I was 15 still jamming and now52

nothing but the Blues

Amen that what blue baby

Clara D . avis

witch type of blues is this

Standard twelve bar blues. But nobody did it better then JR. It's so funky with like.. a jump feel to it.

Aye , what this fella said

Easy rockin' blues is what it is to me, and I love it. It is a special form or Chicago blues (by way of Mississippi). I much prefer it over "city blues" - where the singer stands up and sings a phrase, and then answers with a phrase of single notes on the guitar. "City blues" to me means no harmonica, and usually brass (horns) and a small sort of swing band backing up the singer/guitarist. Except for BB, & Freddie King - that form rarely sounds authentic to me. A lot of guitar player/singers of that sort of city blues just sound like they are masterbating their egos.

Swamp Blues

Oringinal

YEA IS GOOD

Yeah. this is the way the blues should sound as far as I am concerned

You just can't go wrong with Jimmy Reed.

THIS......is the way the blues was meant to be.

Keith Richards is right. Jimmy Reed does the laziest, most brilliant turnarounds. Can you hear how on the turnaround the bass remains on the IV, when it 'should' be on the V, then settles into the proper IV on its way back to the I? It's part of JR's sound, along with his special, consistently slightly out-of-tune tuning.

"Nicely out of tune." John Lee Hooker, however, was a much more extreme example of blues eccentricity - sometimes staying on the tonic chord no matter what change anyone playing with him expected.

What bull. LISTEN!!!! That is the sound of harmony. Eddie Taylor, Jimmy Reed. Harmony. Consistently out of tune? Are you people out of your minds? It's the tape speed. Jimmy slept in tune for Christs sake. His harp was out of tune? I could go on. That you need a pud like Keith Richards to legitimize a genius like Jimmy Reed is pathetic. Are we clear on this, or do you want me to paint a picture?

This is my kinda blues...thanks for posting these great songs.
