A curiosity: a fragment of "Hoochie Coochie Man" by Buddy Guy in 1969, arguably from the same dates as the SuperSHow track already on YouTube too. Sorry but I actually don't have the complete song!
The Delta blues singer and slide guitarist Bukka White on a rare chance on piano.
By the way, did you hear Roosevelt Sykes playing guitar, or T-Bone playing piano too (both on Black & Blue recordings)? http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
The Killer himself, giving out his usual dose of natural electricity (1981). Long life to the wildest one of them all! http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
The master of New Orleans piano, Professor Longhair doing "Tipitina". You've hardly got a notion about what RHYTHM really can be, until you're listening to Doctor Professor Longhair. If I ever got to go to such thing as a desert island just with one record, probably it would be "Rock'n'Roll Gumbo"! http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
Some historic, priceless, magic footage here:
The master Boogie Man backed in 1960 by the Muddy Waters Blues band, with Otis Spann at the piano. Burnin' blues! http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
The one and only Otis Spann, master of modern blues piana, in action with Willie Dixon in the mid-1960s, in Canada. http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez Here it goes a clip from the only footage of Champion Jack I've got. German TV, 1970. Of course, I'd always would prefer SOLO Champion Jack any day! (try some of his marvelous Storyville records for this).
OK, this one is not any rare or unissued, just the VOICE of jazz with that golden trumpet in 1947. But the quality of video is super in all aspects. And, of course, EVERYBODY ought to see Miss Lady Day singing some time. What a woman! http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez

¡¡Olé!!
Ovación y vuelta al ruedo para estos dos "killers" del piano boogie woogie. El amigo Jools Holland no es que sea manco, precisamente, pero el Doctor me mata, con su flema pasmosa. ¡Esas manos... llenas de dedos!
The piano master with singer Jeanne Carroll, doing one of the main blues standards of all time (Paul Oliver devoted almost a whole book to this song!). I love it, I love it, and I still love it. http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
Here is a real hidden treasure. Footage quality is really terrible, but what could you blues lover think if I offer to see and hear the one and only genuine houserocker in action! http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
Maybe the greatest blues performer & composer of the 1980's and 90's, Johnny Clyde Copeland from Houston, Texas! This time he's in a rare acoustic setting (1989). Johnny plays the tittle song of his 1st Verve album, "Flyin' High". http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
A fast visit inside the great Coca's Castle (Segovia). Build in the XV Century, it's one of the main landmarks of Mudejar architecture, as the not very far located La Mota's castle. These ornamentated brick-build marvels are not to be missed if you ever come to Spain!
Music by Bert Jansch, fingerstyle guitar.
A look at the beautiful blues and gospel music posters made by Spain's graphic designer Hita in the 80's and 90's. Soundtrack by the great Otis Spann. http://www.myspace.c om/jaybeerodriguez
