[yoocuzz]

AND ON THE 9th DAY GOD MADE BUDDY!

[kragker]

Buddy rocks, RS might have rated him 13..but in the early 60's the top guys wanted to play like him!

[ONENIGGER2ANOTHER]

This video proves without a doubt Rolling Stone lists are full of shit!! So hes number 30?? Name ONE Guitarist besides Hendrix or Vaughan that come close to the Woodmaster!! The dude is 74 and still smokin that ass!!

[ccfliege]

I love how he tries to get a junior Wells vibe at the last verse!

[BassFever74]

I still think he looks like Morgan Freeman.

[pinoyblues69]

i'll put buddy guy at #1 and hendrix at #2 on my own list... and he's certainly a better singer than hendrix!

[nige99]

im just as good as it gets!...... that's true buddy you are

[fireandsilver]

Saw him last nite amazing!!!!!!

[moesciphish]

Rolling Stones are a bunch of fucking morons... really, Kurt Cobain, Keith Richards, John Frusciante, Morello over the likes of David Gilmour? KURT COBAIN??? Morons... Buddy guy was shafted at 13...

[Okpolosi]

I've seen him several times throughout the years - he always delivers - like a hurricane - he'll blow you away !

[redhead5150]

Buddy is better than #13 in my book. This man is a guitar god!!!

[PULSEJETVALVE]

With this class!!! you just cant rank!!! Way above ranks!!!

[Roondawg423]

Check out Callie's version of Buddy Guy's Feels Like Rain!

[musikus48]

Mir fällt zunächst auf Bernd, ich habe die selbe Kappe, ansonsten sehr wir uns zwar nicht änlich, doch die Musik lieben wir Beide.

Grüße von Bert

[Perstorp]

Mr. George "Buddy" Guy - 75 years today! Congrats!

[MrsD7777]

@Perstorp 75??? and STILL ROCKIN??? Whoa! * *LOL*

[qnion]

@MrsD7777 I just saw him the other day at DC..He was freakin amazing. Could not believe he is 75 years young...

[RandomStevie]

@MrsD7777 B.B. King's in his mid-80s, if I'm correct. He's still touring too.

[comporockomatic]

Anyone know what is the amp we see at the extreme right at 0:06 ?

[comporockomatic]

Qu'est-ce qu'il est long, au synthé, celui-là !

[fabiofurlan1]

God bless and keep him!

[AndrewJackson503]

I wish i would have went to the blues festival in portland oregon, would have been dope to see buddy there..

[stringaddict999]

Lot's of different flavours ladies and gents the important thing being; Buddy Guy is himself and does him so so good. I heard him say once "I'm only playing the best till the best come around"

[grunt12394]

i love the bass line

[ProAmatuerPictures]

Buddy Guy also infuenced Hendrix

[lukefukinmiller]

legend

[pagalley1]

I thought BB King was the best guitarist in the world...Whatever the case, they'll all brilliant guitarists, Buddy, Prince, Eric, Eddie, Jeff, and the list goes on and on.

[jebaj0czeski0marynaz]

i put 900

be a hero also

[jg3rtub3]

I just got home from seeing Buddy at the Belly Up in San Diego. Incredible!! 6-13-2011.

[bigtravis1313]

he's playing in houston on june 8th and i'm trying like mad to get tickets

[IbeeOk]

He is the best, Clapton has stated that Buddy Guy is the Greatest Guitarist in the world. Seen him twice hope to see him again! Sooner the better

[mcoope15]

@IbeeOk Agreed! EC has also stated more than a few times that BG was THE main influence on his guitar playing style. Not so sure I'm into the who's-the-best debate, but BG sure has influenced an entire generation of guitar players.

[jporcel100]

One of the last in the third generation blues musicians -- and still goin' strong. I'm glad you're still with us Buddy, belting out some of the sweetest blues ever!

[MsBluesband]

exelente...

[blueleadguitar]

To all of you who have seen this great man, you lucky buggers! lol

[lostintheblues]

I saw him in Edmonton last night, was at the front of the stage about 4 feet from Buddy ALL NIGHT!

Then to top it off, he signed my guitar at the end of the show. I still can't believe I was watching him that close, was the 3rd time I've seen him in 4 years. Small venue too, only about 350-400 people there. Greatest night ever.

[bardess5]

@lostintheblues Been there, man - sat at his feet in a tiny club - so close I could smell the whisky in his cup - it was blues magic.....

[lilnetty2]

saw him 2 years ago,he was electric and just left us all feeling great. Go see him next chance you get, his voice still sounds incredible.

[yatah]

BUDDY'S BACK!

[codehendrix]

buddy guy looks like homer here.... and busta rhymes....... but thats cause busta rhymes looks like homer.... lol....

[dudkhalia]

Tienen suerte ustedes yankees... los negros les trajeron una musica increible... aca en latinoaamerica vino la cumbia, la salsa, el carnaval... NO DIGO QUE SEA MALA EH, solo que a mi me encanta el blues... y repito, tienen suerte, porque si no fuera por los africanos.... no se que musica estarian escuchando, pero seguro seria una desgracia. MENOS MAL QUE LLEVARON A LOS NEGROS A NORTEAMERICA... SI NO, SU MUSICA SERIA UN ASCO

[TheVovano]

лучше всех шпилит клавишник

[tonyhq1992]

at first i was like thats not buddy guy,,,,,,

[ozune6167]

日本でも凄い人気なんだぜ



[rockboy8812]

mys__/bonnardsbluesband

[danielria]

He's better than 13th. He's number 1! He's the best damn fool that you've ever met.

[jbawn]

13th in Rolling stones top guitarists. Should be much higher, That chart is wrong. It has BB KING at number 3? i mean he good but not a patch on Gary Moore, Santana, SRV, Buddy Guy.!!! I never saw Robert Johnson or Chuck Berry who were ranked 5th and 6th play solos as good as these guys either. And Keith Richards number 10!! This surely not ranked on technical ability then lol.

[genxxxersize]

Buddy Guy has been called the bridge between the blues and rock and roll. He is one of the historic links between Chicago electric blues pioneers Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf and popular musicians like Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page as well as later revivalists like Stevie Ray Vaughan. Vaughan stated that, "Without Buddy Guy, there would be no Stevie Ray Vaughan."

[BubblezGee]

was this in nz at blues fest?

[rozozzy]

i still live him..

[56BUICKRiviera]

His vocals are what make it mother fucking badass

[strungseven]

I feel sorry about people who ranks misicians by "The Rolling Stone Magazine". First of all, music is an ART, not a sport, nobody wins, nobody loses. Second, Mr. Buddy Guy shouldn't be respected for been "thirieth" in some fancy magazine, but for what he actually is: A BLUES GIANT.

[MrCldmr]

ITS A VERY GOOD

[ThePrettyPleases]

Buddy Guy just played a show down in Florida right by me

[rozozzy]

@ThePrettyPleases he put the spotlight light on me and walked to me in ft worth texas playing that guitar!! my friends freaked out when they saw me. i was stand at the bar as usual!!lol

[brandobum9]

13th best guitarist is wrong. dude is for sure top 5

[slivercord]

@brandobum9 i agree

[murphybeans]

7 dislikes? What the fuck did they expect?

[DSCKSR]

Wished I was in Vermon when he was around.

[JCVdude]

@DSCKSR He's supposed to be playing in Kelowna this spring sometime, somewhere.

[sweetnpeachy1]

@JCVdude Go to Chicago when he's playing at his own club 'Legends'!

[LUckybones25]

[foteljar]

[yahoyes]

If you really listen to the guitar licks/leads, you would know where stevie ray got his influence....YES many guitarists...but just listen to these licks...

[dobby240]

Good recording!! never heard of buddy guy before though :s i'll be searchin more after this finishes though :P

[VenomousVillainy]

Saw this damn fool at Saskatoon Jazz Festival, and I tell ya he is the best one I ever met.

[yannlauber]

The guitar on the right looks like it's not plugged!!!

[philumber]

This dude's got it ALL going on. Keeping them blues alive. Live long and prosper.

[kylekylelewis]

blues is the music of the human race. It transcends every color and class barrier there is. It will always be around and will continually gain fans. If you think about it, blues has only increased in popularity since it was started a hundred or so years ago. You can't say that about any other genre of music. If you don't like the blues it's only a matter of time before you become a complete blues junkie. You can't say that about any other genre of music. Most powerful form of art ever!!!!

[nuttymanyelismate]

@kylekylelewis Totally agree! Its because the blues mirrors life, good or bad. And those who play it like Buddy, have usually gone through some big shit and had some seriously good times too! That just comes through in the music. Love the blues. Like you say its musical art at its finest.

[LUckybones25]

@kylekylelewis Agreed 100%

[StijnBF2]

@kylekylelewis you're so damn right.

[bluescat59]

Rolling Stone? Who cares what they think? They have to sell mags to corporate white America. Buddy Guy is on all of the greats lists. And is still alive. Nuff said.

[GNRlast]

forget rolling stone their rating is argumental

[ToninDaBahia]

I listen to the american music every day .

[JRNYNEXT]

THE ONLY THINGG MISSING IS LITTEL WALTER  GREGG ROLIE AND NEAL SCHON

[johnpeterott]

He is " FODA" as we use to say here in Brazil ! He is a Legend !

[TheJimKoy]

un grand maitre du blues

[david2005mac]

He is awsome but his guitar was soooooo loud it could pierce your eardrum....I enjoyed seeing him but the sound needs work....Albany NY blues fest!!!! Buddy is a hall of famer...but remember there is also a band there, otherwise do it solo, turn the guitar volume down...the whole thing sounds better....oh and the crowd walk wireless ......AWSOME!!!!!!

[PRSguy94]

Did anyone else notice the first guy with the white Strat has no cable?

[mrmarceldiender]

@PRSguy94

that must be the damn fool ,than he.

[mrmarceldiender]

@PRSguy94

[awiss2012]

Whoever disliked this video should have Buddy's guitar rammed up their ass a few times, then get run over by a van...driven by Buddy.

[lowrider692]

[Juniorhooker]

[JoeyFudd]

He's got a new CD out that got great reviews. An underrated guitarist is Albert Collins too, BTW. Check out his song "Honey Hush" on YouTube. That's great blues too.

[publicityscout]

Sorry R.S., I wont accept 13th for B.G. He's in the top three, Hendrix, SRV and Guy...and not in that order. Thanks for this video JCVdude, love me some live Buddy.

[casu3]

@publicityscout dont forget magic sam and earl hooker and his cousin john lee hooker and guitar slim to be honest the best guitar players of all time are bluesmans rolling stone magazine had to add some honkys to the list

[michael713ify]

@casu3 Honkey there are great gutiar players of all races. So there is no need to be a racist prick.

[KennediKingGuitar]

Amazing note bends...unreal expression and feel!! Just another great "flavor" of guitar!! Ultra cool!!! ~KK

[valeriebarsini]

[TomasLonGo]

[globug2000]

[neverbleedtre]

@wrather feel you there and im black but there is good hip hop out there it just kinda died when fast cars "bitchs" and jewlery came in but i understand what your saying i try to explain that to people all the time but they dont get it but you cant hate on rap and hip hop all the way there is good poets out there people are just focus on the mainstream bullshit and the gangsta bullshit maybe one day it will come back but for now long live blues and metal

[morethan20]

@neverbleedtre I just went to his club in Chicago last night and he sang with the band for awhile, was like seeing God of the guitar in front of us and big Jim and the playboys were fantastic also!

[landonrob]

I've seen him 4 times and he is always smokin....He used to come to the Rainbow in Ottawa when smoking was allowed....I love festivals but the small clubs are even better.... Check out some of my vids if you get a chance from the Rainbow playin a few Buddy tunes.....Peace & Blues

[JCVdude]

@avanti28571 Best Damn Fool.

[ontariobuds]

@JCVdude I feel sorry for you, having to answer questions like that.

To me, when I read the title " BUDDY GUY LIVE!! - 2009 - 'Best Damn Fool' "

that tells me everything, who it is, when it was, and the song title. Some people just make me question how smart some people are........avanti28571 I looking at you!

[edbelot]

Buddy Guy is 73 years old...he's amazing

[DarthKazi]

@edbelot I can only pray to be half as functional as this man when I'm that age. God bless him!

[stevenhuffman]

I saw him last night with B.B. King and I must say he is AMAZING and incredibly entertaining.

[dahelmetrk]

[theSPECIALbrew74]

@19Borregaard77

uh yeah they dead its only white america call elvis the king. but not the inventor. chuck berry little richard. wat u think the basis of elvis tunes were? the same rythyms of black music coz he lived in those areas growing up. whitey usa made up a new name for the music n called it theirs. oh n i'm white but not a racist.x
