Downchild Blues Band - I'm Alone download song

Great Toronto band! My brother and I knew Donny.

Great stuff! The only footage I've been able to find of Richard "Hock" Walsh. Always thought he was great. More, please.

Hock !!! We miss you !!! He brought a lot of BluesJoy to Toronto !!!

All Time Singer, the Man is the Blues!

Hock Walsh doin' the hand jive ! What a shame !

I keep coming back to this song year after year. It's what got me into Downchild Blues Band after hearing they inspired the Blues Brothers. Yet I can never find an album with this song. Was it ever recorded and released or was this just done for live shows?

i agree about Chuck Jackson, but he is also one cocky mother, thinks he is what makes Downchild, when it's all 6 members that move this one and only blues band.

Finally got the lyrics to this INCREDIBLE song..awesome awesome awesome! again...what a VOICE!

The Hock was The Best!

I remember them from school dances and playing at the Ting on Broadway in Winnipeg, They were great!

The original "Blues Brothers" Donnie and Hock. Thanks for posting this. Great video from Canada's premier blues band.

I never knew this clip existed so thanks very much for it. In the late 70s I was living in St. Jamestown, a lower income set of highrises in Toronto and our local bar was the Hotel Isabella. And lucky us, on the weekends the house band featured The Hock with a great bunch of musicians. He'd left Downchild by then but still had that great voice.

Awesome! Thanks for this "turn back the hands of time video"

miss you hock thanks for all the good times. remember scadding house where if first meet him rest in peace. norm

I saw this band in Kingston in '72 or '73. It was a terrific show, which I would have enjoyed more if some greasy waste of oxygen hadn't been trying to pick a fight with me.

Downchild's has never been the same without the Hock.

vingchick- could you please upload the other Hock clip you had a few years back- "have you ever had the blues" from this same TV show- I loved that one!

Great clip. I will never forget seeing Hock sing in the Cameo Lounge upstairs at the Isabella Hotel with an excellent band he had put together. He had Gordie Johnson(Big Sugar) on guitar, Terry Wilkens(My favourite bass player), and Maureen Brown(almost my favourite drummer and also excellent singer). They did one song, I believe it was called "F from the Five" that I am very sorry I do not have a recording of. It was a slow blues that really allowed Hock to SING BIG.
