I’d Rather Go Blind (Buddy Guy Tribute) - Beth Hart and Jeff Beck - 2012 Kennedy Center Honors 

😢

😢

Deeply sorry for your loss……

İ wish she will in heaven look at you

I’m so sorry my friend 🙏🏼❤️

Beth.....the best!

Muhammad kedua sajah

Absolute truth. Raw emotion

Boy oh boy can she cut it loose, Beth definitely has the chops to sing any genre..Beck I wish he'd lose every whammy bar he's got..I don't know why he uses it more these days but he's to clean and smooth a player to use em so much. Buddy Guy is like a badass old west gun slinger. He'll come to town kill everyone with his fantastic guitar playing and ride off smiling in other words HE'S THE MAN..

⁰ĺp

Love the whole vibe about it. Love the look of the Zeppelin guys really into the music.

70 me

69 with tears in me eyes

59 and it does the same... ;)

First song to make me cry when I saw Etta James Doing this 😮😢

❤ same here bro chilled & bumped with goose

I broke a Beths heart and backed out of marriage. Could not take the lies no mo ......sorry but I need truth.

True, it was touching to see Buddy so visibly moved by the superb rendition with Beth at her considerable best.

Is it possible to add more than only one thumbs-up? Beth is amazing!

Rest in the power of your brilliance, Jeff Beck!

So true!

Choked up because he and Etta could do so much better.

Jeff Beck was extraordinary.

Yep.

I love it! Since I stumbled across her, haven't heard j that good in a while, she's a force, and Jeff the perfection of his skill and talent, could see the mutual respect for each other, bt Jeff's guitar was singing the lyrics, I have total respect for jimi and Jeff, but when beth walked on stage she had total control of ppl watching including all those stuffed shirts,lol a historic honors night 9 yrs later and ppl are. Still posting and replying including the younger generation I gives us old school hippie/boomers a lot of joy to see the kids in awe and their desire 4 our music, real,skill, talent In all genre of music we were blessed!🤗

Liz Hale ....Pat Benatar. Beth Hart...all in a league of their own

@@anitathompson9360 Jeff Beck is out from this song!!!....Perfection?????....just jumbled notes mostly...:(...this beautiful song need pure emotional notes,not this mostly confusing playin'....

Beth looked so beautiful in this performance...

kara!!! ela canta dimais... maravilhosa!!!

Yess I really enjoyed. Her tribute to the Great Buddy Guy. That’s real soulful music. Her vocals are strong and gut wrenching.

so true! you got to make them feel every emotion every word deeply and she sure does that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You ain’t lyin’!

Hi how are you doing?

ever ever ever

Beautiful ❣️

Have you seen Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes do it at the Kennedy center? Far superior to this one.... imo

@@PhilipBurton-dn3ce it wasn't a competition you know.. Your comment is society these days. It makes me sad

@@marijnvanlingen8678 I really don't understand your comment, Sharing music is not a competition and I never claimed it was There was nothing derogatory in my comment I didn't say anyone was an idiot for liking Beth and Jeff I'm always open to others opinions on music and if someone can put me onto a different cover of a really cool song then I will listen to and appreciate it for what it is even if I prefer a different persons version If my comment made you sad then you misinterpreted my meaning Or maybe you just suffer from depression Or maybe you're just a little over sensitive Sorry for traumatic experience I caused in your life Live well, be happy and try to be a stronger person in life my friend

Did not nail it at all. Alot of razzle and dazzle and styling, faux soul on this performance, like the Obamas. He deserved better tribute on this song, perhaps from someone with deeper felt experience. She has an impressive gift, but seemed to be trying too hard to impress us with her gift. It's not about her gift. The musicians provided a pure contrast with her artifice. Sounds harsh, but that's my response to " she nailed it." Maybe just an off night, seeing she's much better in her own niche where she is all heart and soul and authenticity. That's probably why they chose her... The mention of Etta James suggests other directions they could have gone in searching for the right person for the performance, and of course Etta James is long gone. Alot of these Kennedy Center presentations turn out disappointing, like a blue ribbon committee of self important celebrities get together and come up with a well known celebrity singer song writer to cater to other celebrities in the crowd and to draw an audience for PBS type stuffed shirts.

Be Ff I totally agree with you. I know she has her fans but I am not one of them. And yes - Where is Etta James’ name? On the other hand, Jeff is as good a guitar player as Jimi Hendrix was. He’s the only electric guitar player in Jimi’s league. They had different approaches but each is a master of sound, creativity, and virtuosity on their instrument. There is no one who gets what they do from a Fender Stratocaster. No one else.

John lemay Lemay She was recognized at the Kennedy Awards Show before. This show wasn’t for Etta. A lot of people have sung this song

@John lemay Lemay I think everyone there knows that. There was no reason to. That's what I think anyway.

@@kevinworley1254 agreed, in my opinion she does the best job with this song! R.I.P. ETTA.

Hello 👋 how are you doing?

Boy you haven't been around for long enough to know

Check out her live in Amsterdam DVD with Joe Bonamassa recorded a few years ago 👍

Public performances on tv star search age 15 4stars everytime no one could beat her

A Californian girl that was adopted by The netherlands and New-Zealand after she had a rough time,

Check out her singing Nutbush City Limits with Joe Bonamassa on guitar

Hello how are you doing?

i don't agree....the guitarist is not for this song!!!!....jumbled notes....not even with his clothes!!....:(

@@67065682 Entitled to your opinion, as am I!

Agreed. Beth delivered the depths of this song, and Jeff provided the podium and descant for that pain.

There was a girl, Etta James, you know, who could. And, in mine and many other humble opinions, will forever be unbeatable singing this tune. Thus said, Beth is the only other singer capable of giving me goosebumps while singing IRGB. So, I guess it's a tie... 👍☺️ And the duet Hart/Beck is second in my heart to that one of James and Dr. John, obviously. But this couple here, they're as closer as anybody ever will...

@@rohanroll Of course Etta OWNS this song but I am speaking about Miss Beth at the moment. Love them both!!! No competition just REAL talent doing this song JUSTICE.

Seconds into the song I knew that she was on course to challenge Etta James... Buddy knew too.

It get me everytime but I still come back

Power

..she's a national treasure - that's for sure. What a woman!

I'm not sure there is a better female singer of the Blues alive today than Beth Hart. Putting her voice with one of the best bands ever assembled for blues was a wonderful way to honor the greatest living Bluesman today in Buddy Guy. The deeply emotional nature of that song really comes through, and Buddy's reaction to it tells you all you need to know about what he thinks of it. Awesome.

Yes , i saw in his eyes he was transported somewhere. What a powerful energy.

Tem um bocado de Janis Joplin

Me too. I cry everytime. Wow

But wtf is over-singing ? 🤣

I thank sooooooo!

This was indeed great but I think Beth's best version of this wonderful song is with Joe Bonamassa even though I prefer Jeff Beck as a guitar player.

@@markgowans - I prefer this version. It’s a bit faster.

Hello how are you doing?

Hi how are you doing?

Exactly how I felt

100 percent agreed. Same here. I had never even heard of her. I was absolutely blown away.

Hi how are you doing?

Jimmy has known Jeff since they were like 13, 14 years old. Probably very happy one of his best friends is there.

Thats what jimmy page thinks too

He certainly is and now he yours Britain more ive seen a man I've admired since 1970 8 times since 2002. Every gig has been very good and and couple have been astonishing. No one else like Jeff, Clapton and Page have both acknowledge "he's the best there is."

He was again his usual self

She really does sound like the great Joplin - so much emotion.

not only she has a great voice she a great singer to@@KOA7700
