Keep coming back to these short videos... Man New Orleans was fun!!! And Grampa Elliot was fun to watch and listen!!! Need to head down there again soon!!! It's been 2 years since our last visit... keep coming here to refresh!!!
Following these public appearances on the streets and at these venues in New Orleans, street singer Grandpa Elliot became a celebrity when he appeared in concert with several singers around the world making an International video featuring the song Stand By Me, which has been a hit so far in 2020, a of the most viewed videos in the World.
I've been lucky enough to see Grandpa Elliot in person... Let me tell you... This man -OOZES- blues soul. It's impossible not to nod your head or tap your feet while listening to him break it down.
yes, djurmaine...they're called 'Playing for Change'. - and part of a documentary. The musicians actually toured together earlier this year, meeting for the 1st time face to face. Check out 'A Change is Gonna Come' written by Sam Cooke, sung by Clarence Bekker and Grandpa Elliott (with the rest of the people backing them) onstage in New Orleans. Amazing.
@NADOS11809 This is music at it's roots. This is what music is all about. If you can't listen to "real" soulful music like this, then you simply need to close yourself in, and spend the day listening to your shallow, talentless, souless Hanna Montana, and Justin Beber CDs...
saw Stony and Grandpa together maybe 9 & 10 years ago watched them all day . it was the highlight of our visits.. Talked to Stoney on a later visit and was told Grandpa was "unavailable" What happened?
@NADOS11809 This is music at it's roots. People that can't listen to this, need to just go back to their shallow, talentless Hanna Montana, and Beber music... THIS is what music is all about..
Grandpa Elliott in a class by himself. This is what you call Raw Blues no computer or software inhancements just pure talent Peace out. Ya heard........
