The Dust to Digital Facebook page sets the scene: “Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram, play[s] an amazing and touching version of “Amazing Grace” at the funeral of his mother, Princess Pride, today. She was a great supporter of her son, and would have turned 50 tomorrow.” Amazing and touching indeed. Make sure you play it all of the way through. And when you start the video, manually move up the volume icon at the bottom right of the video.
In case it’s not already clear, Kingfish is a professional blues musician. You can catch his videos on Youtube, including this sweet version of “I Put A Spell On You.” Very sorry for your loss, Kingfish…
I get my OC articles via RSS, when I came to this one clicking on the video displays a dialog asking permission for Facebook to be able to track me when on OC pages, I cannot see the video unless I agree.
Please either place videos that can be watched or simply don’t bother.
First time I’ve seen this at OC and I’ve been subscribed for years
Incredibly moving and brilliant playing… Such a beautiful tribute to his mama. She would be proud. 👏👏👏
My heart goes out to Kingfish and his family. That was a touching tribute to his mom. So young to be taken. I got to see Kingfish and he was amazing. Met him after the show. He a gentlemen. His momma raised him right. God bless his mom. God bless him.
Dear Kingfish,
I’m so terribly sorry to hear the news of your mother’s passing.
I’ve been following your music and your God given talent for several years through YouTube. I have seen hundreds of your videos as you have become my favorite musician. As I watched and learned more of your amazing story your mother’s love and presence was constantly seen . I praise God for your mother nurturing and raising first and foremost a fine young man. Secondly, I thank God she saw His musical gift in you. She will always be by your side and I know she will be smiling upon you as you travel 6his journey called life. One of the great memories I have was my family and I had the opportunity to see you perform live in Baltimore in September. My family and I have become your number 1 fans. There probably has been a day when we haven’t listened to your music and watched your videos. Again I want your to know my prayers are with you and your family. May God bless you and the love of your dear mother shine and smile on you from Heaven. If its God’s will I hope to see I making plans to see you in Harrisburg Pa in February. Peace and blessings and stay strong. My family and I are praying for you.
Love to the man who embraced him at the end. A true friend. Peace and love to the family.
So very sad for the loss of your sweet Mom. Saw her at Telluride Blues Festival on stage bragging on you. She was so proud of you and she’ll be watching over you forever.
I would like to offer condolences to you and your family. May the Lord bless and keep you. Love and prayers. I love your music, and I am so proud of you keeping the blues alive brother. If you get a chance check out the Holmes Brothed version of Amazing Grace I know you’ll appreciate Wendell guitar playing. Peace brother. He that is in me, is mightier than he that is in the world.One love. Bmore baby.
That’s was his older brother who embraced him. Thank God they have each other & our loving family to lean on.

“Kingfish”,
So sorry about your mother. God has given you a tremendous gift and a heart felt gift at that, to pass on the feelings you do in this and all your music. Please be obedient to the Lord and follow your heart in what you do, because your heart is your straight line connection to God almighty. Carry Him with you in your performances to the secular world where He needs to be shared.

Hi Christine. I’m very sorry about your mother. Mine died when I was 20 and about to make a name for myself in the Blues. My birthday is also Dec. 17th. So, I feel like you and I have lots in common. When I was 20 I had already played with, Freddie King, B.B.King, Luther Allison, and a few others. I jammed with Albert King, No Dudley, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee a few times. Aged with Willie Dixon for 2 weeks. Was a pretty ” up and Comin’ kinda guy ” . But, then, so saddened by my mothersdeath decided to play any kind of music that played well. When the work with B.B. started slowing down I lost my apartment and joined a country band. They thought I was great at Country but I was only playin’ Blues. I had to pay my bills so I started playing Top 40 in the ’80’s. I play slide pretty well so it was easy to do Joe Walsh, Eagles type music. I’m hopin’ to meet you eventually because I think I can help you. You’re a good guy and a talented person. I’d love to get together with you!!!
Hate to sound like a jerk, but message me sometime. I have emence respect for you and can probably help…at least I think I can.
Your friend, Dennis
