Lou Rawls - (They Call It) Stormy Monday Lyrics
They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad
Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery
Crazy about my baby, yes, send her back to me

OMG!! LOVE IT
I've been with jazz since 1960 Stormy Monday I listen to it time and time again And Lou Rawls has always been great,I'm 77 now jazz for ever
James - I am with you! - I will be 78 in April and I have been a jazz fan (Coltrane is my musical hero) since I first heard Poinciana by Ahmad in 1959 - I saw Les and his trio at The Bit, where THE SHOUT was recorded, in the early 60's and Lou Rawls has always been a favorite of mine! - "KEEP ENJOYING THE SOUNDS OF JAZZ"
Damn, this is good!
so true!
Great and wow is that chick at 6:06 ever gorgeous.
+Fred Pickles She is hot!!. But she belongs to me.
@Dwight Maxwell Lucky man.
I agree

Do you know her?
Słucham tego kawałka już od 2 godzin! Niesamowite wykonanie.
Lou sings when the Eagle fly......And A the Eagle fly over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remco Blaauw He brings magic to your life!
I've been listening to this two to three times a day for the past 3 weeks and this downright infectious. I've been searching for this on CD format. But I haven't had any luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I learned of this artist when I was, what - 15?... and I baby-sat for a woman who had his music in her house. I have loved him for nearly five decades. How cool is that? He is the quintessential man of soulful blues.
So very, very true!!!!
Wow. What a memory and a beautiful sharing. Shalom!
Jo Clapp no one could bring it like Lou.
Jo Clapp
I'm
The class that these guys demonstrate is incredible. So polished, so regal. Find few of this caliber much anymore.
Now this is what I call the real OG's.. Hahaha!
Gangsters professionnels et al.(smile)..You are so right, watching it again made me realize,we witnessed the best of the last.."Style/Charisma".. My Thanks! ;-)
Lou Rawls/Stanley Turrentine/Les McCan!, at (Mt.Fuji Jazz Festival)
Hahaha!!! Highlight of this evening,
Thanks, Enjoyed seeing it, again..and
Goodnight... ;-) .
Great stuff.
The man in the wings grooving and taking a photo at 2.52 is the great George Adams.
Great ! Lou Rawls / Stormy Monday
Thanks for posting,
paris0820
5 guys just having fun, result is great music, thanks
Hahaha! "Jamming!" Cause they "that good!" such a warm feeling ! ;-)
What a great classic that's has a good sound being covered by "Lou Rawls", jazzy, classy. and smooth.........With some of the greatest musicians playing for him.........
now that's looking it and jammen
now that's kooling it and jammen
@tyrone hammock Yes it is in a much different way......
Grew up on this music, from the look of things it would have happened either way.:-D.You still got it Lou, and sharp as ever! "The Eagle still flies on Friday and Saturday out to play."How I wish it was yesterday"...
My Thanks... (that timing of the eagle was something else).Enjoyed ;-).
Great, great performance! Stanley, the classy sax man with that Cadillac sound was the perfect icing on the cake to make this really stand out. Complementing Lou's vocals & burnin on his solo...mission accomplished! Miss them both...
I love how Stanley Turrentine doesn't want to walk across the stage in front of Lou. And Lou notices and steps ahead so Stanley can walk on behind him. What class!
Beautiful!
Definitely these folk give us a taste of the heavenly sound. The only instrument missing is a trumpet player (Gabriel) a la Louis Armstrong.but I guess here Lou is filling that position.with his voice.
@Tony Winston Yeah, the are they are just the highest level of class.
Mr. Rawls, what a fantastic artist you were, and still is, an exemple for the new generations, I stay so glad when I Herar your songs, so truly, and hionest, they raelly are. May the Almighty bless you Lou....,
!!!!!!!!!!!
THE BEST!
Lou rawls sings national anthem
Right up there with the very best versions of this song ever. And, very different. Up tempo shuffle. Yeah!
It's a top raider song
SPREAD THE MUSIC
Lou on Vocal and Les McCann on Keyboard!!! : D
Sometime in the early '80's my late wife, a jazz singer, and I, threw a birthday party for Stanley in Dallas, where he had played at the Fairmount Hotel. Took him to the airport the next morning......boy he couldn't wait to get out of Texas. Really nice man.
Wow. I'm sure Stanley Turrentine was ready to get out of Texas QUICK. My father was from Texas and it was vicious to black folk. Such a violent KKK presence and lynchings it was UNREAL. It's not as bad as it was in the '50s-'70s but it still is incredibly racist especially towards blacks. There are a lot of Hispanics but they tend to assimilate a little better yet they've got it tough. RIP Stanley Turrentine and Lou Rawls.
The fact that OTC was in Texas made my mind up - in the middle of a deep recession, I weren't takin' THaT job!
Or 3. Hah
I should say 2 great songs
3. stormy monday. in the evening when the sun goes down. goin' to chicago.
A great version of a great song.
Two of the most soulful jazz blues artists together. How wonderful!
Props to Les McCann too. Lou and Les have one of my al-time Desert Island chhoice albums Together!
Great singer gets little play on the radio
Lou at his Best!!!
Love it...a lot!!!!
He was fabulous. When he 1st came out, he was Jazz all the way! Back in the '60s he took us on a natural HIGH. RIP Lou Rawls and Stanley Turrentine.
This is superb. Lou really rocks!
This version really swings! Such a contrast to the Jimi version I love it! Go Lou!
This is great --- always thought Lou was a natural jazz singer and wished he did more rather than commercial stuff -- he was a great jazz singer
Outstanding show
KOOL I SEEN HIM PERFORM HERE IN PHILLY AT PENNS LANDING IT WAS THE BEST THING I EVER SAW
THE EAGLE FLIES!
Que tudo !!! muito bom mesmo.
Brilliant Lou, Brilliant Stanley, Les, Curtis R. and Curtis S.! RIP Lou. Thanks for posting. Surprised at so few views.
and with 3 verses of "in the evening" thrown in. i am almost as happy as these lucky japanese fans.
the best thing on you tube !
The giants showing us what a groove should be like
The best, Jerry, the best! :)
