If you like this, then you really need out Black, Brown and White. It's here on YouTube.

Great but not as good as his earlier stuff. This is a bit smooth.

@xyrius And I feel you are just hiding. Thanks for being 'forthcoming', which, in another way is simply to say: thanks for nothing.

@xyrius That's a damn shame. You're an ignoramus. Even Europeans and asians have knowledge and you don't about your own country's wild history?!?

Pure and simple BOY a 'nigger' is anyone man, woman, black, white, yellow, brown, red, green or gray that expects and or demands the world give them everything without having to work or put out effort is a 'nigger'. Period...I've met more white niggers and yellow ones than you can shake a stick at.

ahah your all missing the point. it doesn't matter whether your black or white. in this day and age anybody who earns under 20K is a nigger. even back then, after boiling it all down, it was all about wealth and education. thats what oppressed big bill, and thats whats oppressing me. racism was just a means. the thing that i find most unfortunate is how successfully they were in removing folk and blues from the mainstream. it only took 1000s lbs of crack and some shitty beats on a computer.

@sigmund5 i highly reccommend you willie dixon's "weak brain and narrow mind" i think there's no race, only humanity. and what kind of "economic power are you talkin about? which has achieved by slaves? 1cot taht'S not a power, only a shame. b the way do you know something about the great blues revival, when many great blues musucuians like, skip james, joh hurt, etc were rediscovered?

@xyrius ToeJob is not being racist. He is making a historically accurate statement about race and culture/power. I don't care what color you are or how nice you are. his point wasn't concerned with what color you are. It isn't about you or how white liberals feel now. When you say, "without white people you couldn't listen to his recordings." you have a problem with understanding race and economic power that limits your understanding-the point you made better than ToeJob could have.

xyruis, ToeJob is not being racist. He is making a historically accurate statement about race and culture. It is great that you love his music but I don't care what color you are and his point wasn't concerned with what color you are. It isn't about you or how white people feel. When you say, "without white people you couldn't listen to his recordings." you have a problem with understand race and power that limits your understanding.. A point you made better than ToeJob could have.

@t0ej0b are you racist? you mentioned the great robert johnson, i assume all the white people who treated him like "crap" are dead now. and without white people you couldn't listen to his recordings. ceterum censeo: im white, i love the blues, and i cant do anything with the color of my skin. i think its about music not about colors.
