Jimmy Reed - Big Boss Man download song

I still have his albums. I just love his style of music.

This was my dad's first cousin favorite song his right arm was paralized but he had one hella dance jus for this song he played it back to back R.I.P. Edward Crispn woulda been 80 next year!

Jimmy Reed, One great song writer. As cool as they get.

THIS SONG IS OLDER THEN ME AND I LOVE IT

this song knocked me out of my socks.

When I learned this song at about age 11 my mama pestered me every time I picked up my fender to play her this song. I not only stole Jimmy's guitar licks but even mastered the harmonica like jimmy and played both at the same time. All I needed to make it complete would have been a bass drum and highhat!

This was the first blues song I ever remember hearing and I have been hooked ever since. Jimmy Reed was great!

Saw him in Tulare Ca around 1959 OR 60. He was wearing a Lime Green Suit. Some things you never forget.

This songs' got the best lyrics of any song, ever. You got me workin' bossman, workin' round the clock. I want a little drink of water, but you won't let Jimmy stop. I'm gonna get me a bossman, one's gonna treat me right. Work hard in the daytime. Whiskeys at night Ha mercy.

I love how simple old blues is, and at the same time it has so many emotions behind it. Interpreted however the listener wants to take it. Such a great genre that is completely dieing off. I am 32 and I meet so few people my age that get the blues, and when I actually do meet someone that says that they like the blues they say SRV or some generic BS. It is the unknown artists that will blow your mind with the raw feelings put into a 3 minute song that can be redone by 4 artists I'm a different way each time. Simply amazing and underrated to say the least. Rant complete.

my father played this music all the time. when i was i child now i listen these days

A Classic Hit Single from Jimmy Reed as it is Called Big Boss Man and Elvis had also recorded this song in 1967

"You ain't so big, you just tall that's all" I remember this song playing on the jukebox when I was a little girl...

The Best Blues Man Ever !!!!!!

this was some beer drinking music lol

My dear departed grandmother bought every Jimmy Reed record that came out! She was a devoted listener to WLAC, Nashville at night after our local R&B daytimer, WLOU Louisville signed off during the 50's, 60's and 70's..  Remember Buckley's, Ernie's and Randy's record shop shows on WLAC? That's how Grandma ordered her records. Excuse me-got to go and feed my baby chicks...

I'd be totally Lost without music in my life..... The Lord knows I'm so grateful every day........ Sunshine in my days..

People who think this isn't the blues don't Know Diddley ( Bo). BTW it's Dylan that sounds line JR. You've got it backwards ......
