Musical Prodigies


Today on "Jazz for Aficionados" we were introduced to a young Korean musician who obviously has "the gift."  No one is really sure why this happens, but it's undeniable.

Christone "Kingfish" Ingram

I saw him play at the Juke Joint Festival in Clarksdale, Mississippi in 2017 when he was 18. He was mesmerizing. Watched/listened for several hours in the old bank building.

He’s getting a lot of attention these days. And has matured stylistically and in his singing. But he's had that innate blues feel from the time he was 13

I think this video was in 2017:

Derek Trucks playing with the Allman Bros since wee. Maybe the most underrated guitarist alive.
