I had the incredible opportunity to spend one full weekend chaperoning Mr. Brown around my city in the early 90's. Looking back, it was one of the most rewarding and enriching experiences of my life. Seeing this video carried me back. I was told then that he was considered "difficult" - supposedly one of the reasons he wasn't more successful. He was blunt, original, honest and very funny. Not to mention a musical genius. I only wish that I had been older - or intelligent enough to truly understand the gift I'd been given when I met him. I sure do now. Thank you for posting and especially for letting the man speak.

I love the huge influence his father had on his life. My dad loved jazz & blues. This interview makes me miss him even though it was hard to understand his kind of love. RIP Dad 😢

I have never heard such wisdom and individuality. Absolutely spellbinding. What character and what a philosophy. And what a player. My new favorite.

great answers to questions can understand Mr. Gatemouth Brown saying he feels he's from another planet.

I love this guy. He was great. While I agree with some of what he says about rap he should not have put all rap in one box. That's the closed mindedness of some of our so called black elders

I don't particularly agree with his take on Blues music. Blues can make you feel good or bad.. depending on the situation. I agree with him on Rap & many other things he said.

Yea, he also said rubbish about classical violin players. Quite narcissistic point of view, if you ask me.

But he was 77 here, and he lived to be 81. But you're right, it's done a lot of good ones in. But those guys were raised in a time when people really weren't aware of the dangers of smoking.

Did he finish his book? If so, I'd love to read it. The man had a lot of wisdom to share.
