The way Buddy would go from being soft to loud in concert made for many mesmerizing and jolting moments in nearly every song. The man is spellbinding in a live setting.
Robert Johnson might have sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads but Buddy Guy marched right down to hell, bitch slapped the devil and stole his hands.
@SoppyMacWolf do you know how many times i meant to click the like button and my hand slipped to the dislike, lot's. i am certain who ever disliked this vid did it by mistake.
@dragonflylady13 I saw him live and I was fucking blown away. Jimmy Vaughan was the opening act, and that was fucking amazing too. Only complaint I had was that some fat drunkards just happened to be sitting 2 rows behind me and decided on yelling the whole time. But drunks aside, he puts on one hell of a show.
had the pleasure of doing the chunkey fest in meridian miss. with buddy when he had his dreads,,yrs age then some chicago gigs,,,great guy,,a1 !! rock on buddy my brother!!!
@bennie92qqq born under a bad sign is Albert Kings classic, covered by cream, and this is almost standard blues rhythm so not a much of an inspiration by any other musician
I'm proud that I got to go to one of his concerts and speak to him. It would've been a lot better if there weren't a few guys that decided to show up drunk and yell the entire time, but nonetheless it was awesome.
Love to watch the hands - it is the finest thing to see how those fingers coax such wonderful sounds out of the guitar. Stating the obvious, "damn right" he can sure enough play the blues!!!! Just amazing to watch! Thanks for this post.
@DrSchlauf no he isn't, Look! the guitar is on a loop, and Buddy and the pianist appear to be playing over it :/ I don't know, I hope someone could debunk it tho?
@willwelsh816 It's known in "old school"terms as a band. They play stuff with instruments, all by themselves. One of the greatest protagonists to ever live......is Buddy Guy.
@FrowningIke even a wireless plug in has a wire a bit longer than a patch cable that goes in a reciever in the player's front or back pocket. There is literally nothing in the input jack.
@0917gva, oh yeah!! buddy knows how to pull every note he wants to from that guitar. when you have some spare time check out a couple other songs done with some friends. everyone there are pros . of course there is a playlist of him with them. have a good day...al
He is truly good he sings those lyrics as though every word he is singing he has personal experience with! What really is fantastic is the way he plays that guitar - he knows how to make that guitar weep - and I don't mean "gently!!" Love that rub against the chest sound; I have never seen anything like that before. Thanks for the post.
There have been five angels of guitar, blues, rock and soul sent to us from the good lord himself... this man is one of those souls sent her to make us feel good, dance and love some ladies real good, like they should be loved....fuck you Keith Richards, listen to this shit....
I was fortunate enough to see his concert last night here in Tucson, AZ it was just amazing! theres no amount of words i can say to describe how much feeling he puts into music.
im a hard rock music fan but listening to buddy guy fills me with a different type of energy and after that when i touch my guitar all i can think s blues!!!!
Buddy guy you are a god, a legend a hero and sadly i am missing your performance in india because of the age limit of only 18 above allowed
does anyone know if he just pulled that guitar off the wall, because i bought a strat from Guitar Center and it sounds like shit, watch my video to hear
@TheBrokenTelescope nah, thats one of his main guitars. u got a bad amp? that could make it sound bad. he is playing a fender through what lookes like a twin reverb or something, so of course the ton will be good. also being a blues legend helps
@hampsondylan how strange.. I know when I have seen Mr. Guy, he uses a remote, but this guitarist has no sign of a remote unless it is built into the back... hmmm
more than just being a great musician with a lot of soul he is an expert showman, and that is why he is a legend...he is above any petty criticism, he has been around too long, he is on another level
yo soy guitarrista, me encanta el blues como me encanta el metal, este hombre es una leyenda, estoy arto de ver guitarristas que solo saben correr y correr, donde esta alma el sentimiento, prefiero a esto gran hombre que a muchos guitarristas comemastiles.....
@JerkyTreat and fucking iron man and stairway to heaven. and then there are the "shredmasters" who think we give a fuck that they can burn a scale at high volumes of distortion. pisses me off.
