Can anyone tell me what pre-1980 blues song has a guitar dueling a organ?

Question

I think its by John Lee Hooker but I can't seem to find it. The guitar wins when it starts to play long notes, and the organ can't reproduce the sound. That dueling piece is in the middle of the song and not the main theme. Any help would be appreciated!

Answer 1

Boom Boom or Boogie Chillun?

Answer 2

Sounds very much like the extended blues "Voodoo Chile" off "Electric Ladyland" where Hendrix and Steve Winwood trade licks like their lives depended upon it..either that or Beatle Fanatic's answer..the live "White Trash" version of "Tobacco Road".

Answer 3

Reminds me of 'Green Onions' with Booker T and Steve Cropper having fun.

Its probably Edgar and Johnny Winter.
ps How come a nice looker like you is into Blues?

Answer 4

That would be "Tobacco Road" on the "White Trash" album.
Johnny Winter playing guitar and Edgar Winter on keyboards.
Great album!

Answer 5

I may be way off here...but the first song that came to me was "Lazy" by Deep Purple...not really Blues but a great guitar/organ showdown. Good luck!

Answer 6

i was going to go with frankinstien jam by johnny winters and edgar on that wierd keyboard he plays ,, but was beat to the punch,, an old guitar man

In the years after Cream disbanded and his collaboration with Steve Winwood in Blind Faith had sunk, Eric Clapton teamed with keyboardist Bobby Whitlock, drummer Jim Gordon, bassist Carl Radle, and guitarist Duane Allman under the name Derek & the Dominos to write and record some new material. The result was this 1970 masterpiece. Shot through with a passion informed by the tumultuous nature of Clapton's own life and career at the time, LAYLA AND OTHER ASSORTED LOVE SONGS plays like a primer for classic rock, with incendiary dueling guitars, swirling organ, blues-styled vocals, and punchy bass and drums.
Covers of "Nobody Knows You When You're Downand Out" and Hendrix's "Little Wing" are given fresh interpretations, and the originals, most of which Clapton co-wrotewith Whitlock, are by turns fierce, melancholic, and celebratory.
