Listening to Pandora this morning I heard this song, checked the screen and swear I saw Paul Butterfield Blues Band. I went to iTunes and YouTube and even googled it. Can't find anything that leads me to a recording. Has anyone heard/seen it? Thanks.

Nope, but thanks. It sounded like his voice, the band, and his harp and I wanted to get it to work on how he did it. For some reason, later in the day Pandora info on the screen seemed out of sync with the music playing. Maybe that was the problem. I appreciate your taking a shot.

No problem mate, how I ended up there was when I googled 'pandora butterfield can i get a witness' check what it says.
But if you heard harp on it as well...the search continues.

Thanks 1847. I checked it out, but not what I think I recall hearing. And there's the problem maybe. My recollection skills ain't what they used to be. I'll keep listening to the station. It probably will come around again at some point.

I can't find it in any online lyrics, but I'm pretty sure I've heard "can i get a witness" in some version of "Back Together Again".

Hi Fil,

Definitely "Can I get a witness" & not a similar sounding song?

just posting this as it is another cover of "Can I get a witness" (not the one Fil is looking for) and it reminds me of my youth heading down to Lahndahan Than/London Town scrapping with Nazi skinheads... heehee!

Nine Below Zero (Mark Feltham on harp)



I don't think Butterfield ever did this I also checked my Butterfield bootlegs and nothing!
