I reckon if regular churches were like that around the world a whole lot more people would be attending them.

It's definitely way more fun than listening to a vicar ramble on and then singing a couple of hymns.

Buddy Greene for Pope I say! :)

ive seen this several times, it baffles me that the audience interrupts him 4-5 times with applause before his performance is over... i certaily would have expected different from a group at carnegie hall. it mustve been taped during an interlude during a much larger show. an intermission if you will...

very proficient at that tune. lots and lots of practice put in for this performance...

I have a video of him in solo concert. He also does alot of middle eastern sounds...well actually any culture you can think of, he does on harmonica. Blues for sure. Got his start driving a delivery truck and playing while driving. He's a one man act with guitar and vocals too. I think he's great.

"...shame about all the white folk with no rhythm clapping out of time!" - That's funny as hell, LOL! They wreck the tune, blissfully ignorant.

don't forget there's often a lag between sound and video on YT, I've even noticed the pros don't play in time with their foot tapping [such as Eric Clapton] it's a YT thing.
