Man Buddy is just up their takin command of greats like jack and buddy miles. Buddy guy was the next step in the evolution of the guitar....probably the most important behind Jimi. Their was only a few thing that held buddy guy from being the next Rock Guitar God with an axe.
The time of which he began playing and those pedals that Hendrix and the rest of em started using.
Underneath it all is the perfect bass of Jack bruce. Would have loved it if he could have cut in once or twice with some vocals. Really enjoyed this. Gonna show it to my grandchildren.
probably the ones the guitar came with when it was made 7 or 8 yrs earleir .. there were hardly any replacement pickups available in 1969 and most people stuck with the original manufacturers parts.
This is great. Makes me wish Jack Bruce could have done something with Stevie Ray Vaughan. Don't think they ever got together at all. Did they? I'm sure they would have done if SRV had lived longer.
Buddy Miles (drummer) makes the best faces in this. This jam smokes. There's a great track with Steven Stills called "Black Queen" that would be sweet to see on you tube
Iam so sorry but i can not take a chance with this. do not read below please i am sorry i did but i cant take a chance. i need my mom. you are stupid if you read this. do not read it.

I see Dick heckstall-Smith on sax (with the glasses). He played a lot with Jack Bruce on Bruce's solo albums, and played in Colosseum with Jon Hiseman.
that's like your bizarre opinion man. it's a simple fact that Buddy Guy is one of the most influential guitarists and stagemen in blues and pop music history.
I think that if he's good enough for Hendrix, Clapton and SRV to steal his playing style, then it doesn't really matter what you think.
i think heavy metal and modern "rock" are just noise, and there's plenty of preteens and people with bad taste that would be pissed at me.
so keep your peter green, i'll keep diggin Buddy Guy
I have to agree with Scotwise to a point. I am a blues guitar enthusiast, and have been since I saw Peter greens' Fleetwood mac in '69'. BG sounds like "noise" to me. Go ahead and lay it on me, BG fans.
And also, just to add, there's a video of Buddy playing, "The First Time I Met The Blues" on youtube. His guitar playing in that video is excellent; he barely makes any mistakes, his timing is to a tee, and his soloing is simply fantastic.
To put in my two cents, the blues is not about musical impecibility, or profound talent-- it's about feeling. I know that sounds very played out, but it's true. Give a song a driving rhythm, with a good vocalist(like, idk, BUDDY GUY?), and some guitar noise/blues fills and you have a formula for a good 60s electric blues tune. I love Buddy Guy; as a guitar player, I want to play like Buddy Guy, and use the same techniques and licks he uses, because they sound good to me. I won't argue conjecture
jimi hendrix, eric clapton and countless otherbands learned off of his music i guess they can't solo either? grow up and show some respect for pioneers in electric blues
Scotwise = dickhead , you must of realise that that is just my opinion...but I'd like to think it's a well considered one . Anyway, Scottie can you just pop your head out of your arse for a tick and listen to the little accent at 59 seconds , if you don't get it then sadly , you don't get it.Now, pop it back in there and buzz off.
Muddy hired him, Jimi was inspired by him, Stevie covered him, and The Stones still play with him. On top of walking the walk that is some pretty good endorsements.
But I spose you think these heavyweights of the 20th century music scene "don't know good playing from bad anyway." And that "they just believe what they're told by someone whose opinion they respect."
scotwise, you start out with three words "Buddy Guy blows." and then you think think you can make up for your ignorance with all of pseudointellectual nonsense...you say "for one,im entitled to my opinion" but yet you forget everyone else here is too. to me you seem to be some condescending prick who talks shit on the internet and probalay wouldnt say half the shit you type. and does calling people retarded make you feel better about blowing guys? its okay to be gay, just come out of the closet.
Youre a fucking idiot. I can list plenty of times. Like the one concert where he was on tour with the greatful dead. And without buddy guy there wouldnt be a jimi hendrix..dickhead..
Hi Retard, I was not asking for examples in BG's career. I'm asking for an example of BG's playing in this video. Say, Buddy was smokin' at 3:00 minutes in. If this is too hard, let me know. I can dumb this down until you can you can understand what I'm asking you for. On the other hand, there would have been no Jimi Hendrix without Buddy Guy? Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Haaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
You know Jimi Hendrix actually cancelled one of his own shows just to go watch BG play right? And have you seen the video on Youtube where JH watch BG play? He's digging every note of BG's playing, check it out! Don't get me wrong, I think JH is light years ahead of any other guitarist the world has seen, but the guy did indeed get alot inspiration from BG. I respect your opinion though.. well, actually I don't.
@JilaX Don´t really understand your comment here. I dig Buddy Guy, I have several CDs of him, and actually play some of his music (I try to at least).
My point was that people don´t seem to understand the impact Buddy Guy had, still has for that matter, on electric guitar playing, particularly electric blues guitar. You´re absolutely right, Buddy Guy was a major influence on several of the british blues greats: Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Mike Bloomfield and Jeff Beck. B Guy is a living legend!
You must be a Buddy Guy fan. Since your such an expert, you wouldn't mind sharing what you think is so great about this video. There must be at least one place where you think Buddy is really smokin'. Give me a time reference and why you think his playing is so great. I'm sure I'll shoot you down. Idiot.
For one, I'm entitled to my opinion. For two, you don't know if I blow or not. I would bet that your also a fan of George Thorogood. My advice to you would be to "step away from the bong!"
It's astonishing that you could think Buddy Guys blows. This is one of the great blues guitarists, and one of Clapton's idols. I guess snotpoker's issue is how your opinion could be so off the mark.
Be astonished! The Emperor has no clothes! Clapton may idolize Buddy Guy, but he's not copping any of his licks. Take this tune right here for example. Buddy's not playing anything resembling a MUSICAL PHRASE, anywhere in this song. I would call Buddy's playing style "emotional noise". Allow me to put it another way...Buddy's playing reminds me of a 15 yr. old boy having sex for the first time. Lot's 'O' energy, but no finesse. But hey! Some girls like that! Buddy's playing style blows.
I'm not trying to change your mind about Buddy Guy. I'm sure he's a very nice man. To get ahead in the music business with that guitar style, he would have to be. He may be considered a Blues legend, but not in my book. Most people don't know good playing from bad anyway. They just believe what they're told by someone whose opinion they respect. You know, kind of like "if it's good enough for Jack Bruce, it's good enough for me."
Well, I've been playing for 35 years. I know good playing from bad. I hardly need some neophyte telling me I don't have the ability to make sound artistic judgements.
I'm sure Buddy Guy has been playing longer than you. Look at the shape he's in. 35 years of playing doesn't necessarily make you a good player. You can make all the artistic judgements you want, not everyone has to agree with you. I don't know what a neophyte is, but something tells me I should be offended.
Everyone quit arguing and just enjoy the music. Everyone has their own opinion, and arguing with them isn't going to change their opinion. Arguing on here is futile.
