I’d heard about the Dave Matthews Band<\/strong> doing LOUIE LOUIE. In fact, last year I mentioned<\/a> that LOUIE LOUIE was part of song called “Warehouse” which was on “The Best of Whats Around Vol.1\u2033 2-CD collection. If you look on YouTube, you can find some different video clips of this song, including an undated, no-location version from Summer of 2006<\/a>, and a performance from a show at Denver, Colorado on September 12, 2006<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Today, I’ve got something special. It’s the Dave Matthews Band <\/strong>with Toots Hibbert<\/strong> of Toots & the Maytals<\/strong>, performing the “Warehouse \/ LOUIE LOUIE” medley. Randall<\/strong>, one of my new cyberspace friendsIt’s , just sent me a clip of these two gentlemen performing on August 11, 2007 at Nissan Pavilion, Bristow, Virginia.<\/p>\n

It’s actually a video of the big screen video shown at the event, which is fine. I’m glad someone captured the moment.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that Toots & the Maytals<\/strong> performed the very first reggae version of LOUIE LOUIE<\/strong>, which was on the “Funky Kingston” album that came out in 1973. Truth be told, Toots was also the first musician to use the term “reggae”<\/strong> which was featured on his 1968 single “Do the Reggay.”<\/p>\n

Toots is an underrated giant in the music biz, and it’s a hoot to see him perform with others. If you get a chance to see Toots in concert, run, do not walk to his concert<\/strong>. He’s the real deal.<\/p>\n

Here’s Toots performing with the Dave Matthews Band. The LOUIE vocals kick in at 5:23. ENJOY!<\/p>\n
