FORTY YEARS AFTER THE ORIGINAL BROADCAST AND STILL PBS REFUSES TO RELEASE THIS!!! The single most requested show in their history. Proceeds from a legitimate release of this could likely END all those pledge weeks. ROY FANS-STAND UP and petition PBS,Judy Buchanan,the producers,WHOEVER,WHATEVER IT TAKES to get this landmark work restored and released. BTW-How many people know at 5:44,that's Lenny Breau's head comping on a twelve string?
In Nov. '71, all of D.C.came to a stop to watch this.
I agree.... Maybe drugs shouldn't legalized! I certainally wouldn't smoke the stuff that the editors from Rolling Stone was smoking! My favorite list of Guartists is Roy, Danny, Alivin Lee,Gary Moore. These are guys i could sit and listen too all night!!
I read about Roy on one of those Top 100 Guitarists articles. Terrible line-up; they had Kurt Cobain and Jack White over guys like Buddy Guy and Mark Knopfler. The only thing that came out of that list worth anything was the reference to two of the "Greatest Unknown Players," those being Danny Gatton and Roy Buchanan. Hearing Roy, he instantly jumped to the top of my favorite list. Amazing stuff. This documentary is amazing as well. Thank you so much for finding and posting it.
@Kals33 It's my pleasure to show the Roy fans something which I had been dying to see since I was converted, and once i found it in its entirety I had to share it! Thank you Roy for changing my life and my playing style drastically!
