Juke is a 12 bar blues progression...

band sucks, terrible. they butchered the songs, walter HATED slide guitar, he would have hated this tribute. Good thing he's dead cause he would have kicked their asses for playing like fools. Nice try though.

you're fucking whacked.....thoe asswipes were there to back up cotton on walter's tune for the fucking hall of fame induction and they should have had that tune locked up tight. shit, all they had to do was hang on the one and the do the turnaround. christ, they're supposed to be pros and they can't follow a VERY SIMPLE blues progression!?! I hate paul shaffer and will lee with a vengeance!

James Cotton is one of my heroes and I love him but he can fuck up too.Legends can fuck up!
In my opinion it's always the music that comes first.Cotton should have corrected the tune once he saw that Paul Schaeffer and his band don't get it, he should have followed them and Juke would have been restored.This way it's just a mess to my ears.
My Babe works just fine. :-)

Little Walter the best harmonica player in the world and theres very little video footage of him - I just can't understand that!!!
woodsheddin (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
should have had conan's band back him. why does that twit paul schaffer always get the call for these events. he's such a heartless, soul-less shitheel.
they dropped the ball right out of the gate. Cotton played it just like he has for thirty-plus years....hell, he's probably been playing it near as long as little walter lived!
I hate paul schaffer to no end!!! his band is supposedly made up of the best players, but they can't even follow cotton when he makes the changes blatantly obvious

hardly kick-ass... but thanks for posting. :) Cotton still rules. It wasn't a complete disaster; they tried.

To me it looks like the band rehearsed it but probably without James Cotton. James threw them a curve ball that they weren't expecting. Little Walter jumps the time on the second verse but Jimmy Rodgers and Muddy catch it right away. If you count the time on the original, the second verse is eleven and a half measures and the third verse is thirteen measures. The original Chicago guys always listened to who ever they were backing up.

Little Walter....KING!!!! |
