Rarely, rarely, if ever do I comment on videos. I must say however, that this dude is seriously talented and deserves even more than 500,000 hits. In an age of such shitty music, its such a breath of fresh air to hear something this awesome. Mr. Mcphearson, if you read this, come to Chicago and play a show. You rule.

And now, waaaaay later, 10 - 11 years on in the spring/summer of 2022 computing science tech teacher JD McPherson is playing lead guitar on a tour with Alison Krauss and Robert Plant. Methinks the once and sometimes comp.sci. teacher has paid his dues and now gets to play and walk with two bona-fide legends of their genres in music. This guy was time-warped and born fifty years later than his real birth date; his feel for rock-a-billy and original rock and roll is that good.👍 My hat's off to the guitar player.

Regarding the debate on whether Mr. McPherson "stole" this sound, I can say that I once met and talked with him (he was my computer lab teacher in 8th grade) about some old records I found. He seemed to be disgusted by one Pat Boone record, explaining to me that he just performed all the "black" songs and sold them to a white audience. So, this guy is aware of the issue. The thing is, he's not covering black music. He wrote his own song, plain and simple, in the style of black 1950's rock 'n roll. It was an original creative act, inspired by a historical stye. If you can't understand the difference between theft and inspiration, you are missing the whole point of this man's music.

Cameron Alred Every artist "steals". Its part of being an artist. This guy is great. Heard him yesterday and I love the throwback sound he has going on. This is the first "new music" I have been able to listen to in years.

@willdrucker4291 9 лет назад

Cameron Alred McPherson was very inspired by the likes of Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, and even Bill Haley and the Comets....his assertation regarding Pat Boone was spot on....at that time, Rock and Roll by Black artists was all the rage across America and conservative white parents feared their kids were becoming "corrupted"....Boone had a "safe" "wholesome sound" that endeared to parents but turned off the kids...thus ripoffs of Domino's "Aint that a Shame" were to both sell records and appease those parents....an effort if you will to "white bread" rock and roll....needless to say, it didn't work...the kids would NOT be compromised.....I like this song and kudos to JD for his music in honor of the Rock and Roll legends....regardless of race.

@kennethpraschan4382 11 лет назад

This guy is great! It's straight-up 1950's rock n' roll. It's full-blast retro and true to the original era that inspired it, but also feels totally genuine and original. It never wanders into being a gimmick or imitation. I'm an instant fan, I think. BTW, that drummer is fantastic too -- always providing exactly what the song calls for at that moment, and always classic 50's style. Very clean, very tasteful.

@bradcohen1337 Год назад

@GoodNoteDJ 12 лет назад

Almost brings tears to my eyes knowing that folks like JP are out there still reminding people that basic rock'n'roll/rhythm'n'blues can still have vitality when done right. Rock on, man!

@darenanderson1960 2 года назад

I love this song. That Bethlehem Steel Football Club shirt is very cool. My grandfather worked for Bethlehem Steel shipyard as a welder in the early 1940s. When he received his draft notice to serve in World War II, he came to work to clean out his locker. His boss happened to see him and told him to put his stuff back in the locker and to get back to work. Apparently welders working on Navy ships were essential for the war effort and his boss got him excused from the draft. Sorry for the boring family history non sequitur.

@stephenstone3899 8 лет назад

When I first heard this song I thought it was an original from the 50 ' s, it blew my mind when I realised that it was a modern rockabilly song, jd and his band have a great balance between r'n'r, blues and tockabilly. In my opinion this sound echo ' s the whole era of the 1950's with authenticity, including style, feel, delivery and a natural raw talent that sadly seems to be in short supply today.

@ole9421 8 лет назад

+Stephen Stone Very well said!

@colin6768 Год назад

Damn. I thought for sure this was some long lost black singer from the 50s. This song really cooks - great rockabilly style slap bass. really boss Chuck Berry style solo.There is no cosmic justice and if you need further proof, it's the fact that cats like this are toiling in obscurity, while Taylor Swift, Lada Gaga, Meghan Trainor, and their ilk are raking in millions. What a dreadful situation.

@tdawg9847 10 лет назад

Calvin Maynard He was pretty chill! I remember his class was fun, we would make stupid stories(this was 4th grade) but we didn't learn much. Eventually I think an admin got pissy and his class became more dull and lecturey. Oh, and he always had a guitar and a lot of cords and stuff for amps.

@calvinmaynardtmt 10 лет назад

***** that's awesome. I just discovered him a couple of weeks ago, and I can't get enough of his music. Wouldn't it be great if he went on tour opening for a larger act like Brian Setzer or Imelda May? I think that would be the perfect next step for him.

@tdawg9847 10 лет назад

Calvin Maynard thatd be cool but he is still touring a little, to my knowledge. I dont know what happend but when his album came out in 2012 he got a lot of national recognition like NPR and maybe the tonight show(one of those shows). When he first started to tour I wasnt that involved but I wish I had been! at his first concert in town one our schools teachers got wasted with her BF or something and was asked to leave.
