Buddy Guy Is The Chicago's Finest Bluesman Living Today ! When Muddy Waters and All The Bluesmen From That Era Passed On ... Buddy Picked Up Where They Left of , I Can't Think Of Any Blues Musician Who Didn't Borrow A Few Of His Signature Licks ... JoJo Taylor !
wrong...see "buddy guy lesson"...and he will tell you that he started out copying everything from bb..and you should listen to the classic chain gang song "rosie"...claptons voice is amazingly similar to that of black convicts...ive played blues for over 25yrs...so you better think twice before trying to correct me boy...cause im the one who will give the listen here...you dig?
I got this movie at a thrift store on VHS and I love it. It's an amazing document of Chicago during the period, and the music on it is amazing. Watching these guys when they are in their 60s and 70s doesn't really give you an idea of how amazing they were in their prime. The parts with Floyd Jones and JB Hutto and Muddy Waters are amazing. I watch it all the time.
@Typicus Hi! I've found 2 titles on Amazon. One is VHS from 1995, second is DVD from 2004, but both are filmed in 1972 not 1970! It looks like it's the same film. I hope the dvd has better quality.
@Iandonrob best comment I have seen in a long time. That's how I learned how to play mostly everything I know. People need to start trying to learn the music rather than just how to play it. Ear is the key. Thanks for making my day.
Buddy guy. Probably the biggest influence in guitar playing history. Hendrix, clapton, srv, page. Who hasn't borrowed a few licks from this man. Respect.
@kipperfeast they all borrow licks...you cant be hard on clapton and not the rest of em...hell...buddy stlole half of what he knows from bb king...and he borrowed from muddy....all the way down...im not that big of a clapton fan really...but lets be fair
@arkee71 Ehh, wrong. Buddy and BB have completely different styles. BB is simple and melodic, using notes sparsely. Buddy's an incredible blues "shredder". Plus, borrowing is one thing. Clapton is just an updated, white, copy of the original masters. The only original things I've heard him play come from his rock stuff, which I think he should have stayed with...
@kipperfeast its crazy how people think clapton is god, and jimi, and srv. they are amazing guitarists, but they learned it from buddy, bb, albert king, etc, who learned it from muddy and howlin wolf, who learned it from people like robert johnson and skip james, tommy johnson, and that old as time generation. after learning what real blues is, ive never been able to say anything after that is 'better'
@TheGreenputty the leads you have to listen to and try your best to feel them out...there will be no tabs anywhere...I guarantee !!! The Rhythm is just a 12 bar.....Practice,practice & more practice....
I saw Buddy play in his club in Chicago back in the 80's with Junior Wells. I got his autograph. Most fantastic night of my life. He's a real gentleman too.
love it when hes pulling them threw, and he screams (rrraaaahhh) then straight bock on the fiddle, yeee man! turn this shit up to max maybe it will blow them 15 dislikes away! or maybe the people who did it listenin to bieber wankin! lol
Pt. 2. he kept INSISTING Bowie come up and sing with him. Bowie kept begging off, but Buddy would ask again every couple of songs. Every time Buddy got more insistent and then even vaguely angry and mocking. Finally Bowie gave in and they did this song (and Bowie tried but his voice really was shot). It was interesting to see Buddy get like "This is my fucking house - you got your star treatment, now get up here and sing!". Forgive my storytelling...check my channel for good raw blues
I've seen Buddy many times live (I live around Chicago). One time in the early 90's, David Bowie came into the club late at night in a kind of ostentatious way with an entourage in tow. It was Buddy's club (Legends) and they accommodated Bowie with a primo table/service, etc. But then Buddy started coaxing Bowie up to sing, and Bowie tried to beg off, because he had just done a local show and his voice was shot. Then it got kind of weird and tense...Buddy kept smiling the whole time, but...
"Blues don't murder me." I mean, what else can you say. The only other line that in on par or better is B.B.'s "How blue can you get?" The Blues demands we go right to the bottom, right to the core, and dig out the truth, and the truth is not for the faint of heart.
Im a 14 year old guitarist trying to get some views. i know nobody reads these but if you take the time to just look at my videos i will be very grateful once i get to a thousand views i will upload another video i am about 40 views away! Thank You for your time!
This is so raw so powerful, and every time I hear this it wakes up all my senses, great song, from great musician! It is almost like electric orgasm. Well maybe everyone feel it for his/hers favorite music genre, but I feel it for good blues. And this is superb blues.
...comin at ya from australia,...is ur middle name "GOD" by any chance Buddy ???..........seen ya in Sydney at the Enmore theatre all those years ago !!!..u were fukn hot lad and always will !!!
don't get me wrong. I love Buddy. Seen him 3 or 4 times and each time was excellent. But, best was in 1994 when promoting his Slippin' In album.
I'm jes saying there's other good 'ens out there. My case I'm kinda partial to Mississippi artists. And most times to see them ya gotta go to the source. Just saw Johnny Rawls last night from Hattiesburg. Great! Saw Jimmy "Duck" Holmes w/Terry Bean last month in Bentonia, MS. Great! But reckon ya gotta be kinda hard core to like 'em though.
@tuck5492 Are you serious? What are your rival candidates? I'm thinkng maybe B.B. King at the Regal or Jimi Hendrix ('Hear My Train a Comin'") at Berkley.
@tuck5492 i respect you for saying that, but i think i've seen a lot of blues performances and i think that is one of the most awesome performances i've seen...
Can i ask you one favor?
I believe i've seen a lot of blues performances but maybe i just didn't.
Would you be able to recommend me some others performanes?
Hey people, stop ruining this great sound which childish nattering over which type of music is better. That's subjective, each person differs. I personally, loved this tune.
Once I started playing some blues stuff with my guitar and my friend,who didn't know at all how to even play anything else than drums,grabbed my acoustic and started soloing into my plaing.It was so magical,he just....played :D I've never seen anyone playing so.. unexpectly (: One of those magical moments in life I quess 8)
I found this to be a very moving and disturbing video to watch. I was, by most standards, just a rich 'white kid' trying to make it in hostile environment. I personally witnessed much of the segregation and social unrest that is depicted here. It makes me sad.
you should respect rap/hip-hop, rock n roll, blues, jazz, soul....thanks to the africans. If they wouldnt exist you now would be listening to classical music
@verga1992 Without CLASSICAL music my friend- from Beethoven to Stravinsky, we would not have MUSIC period!...So everyone needs to pay respect to classical music as the foundation of all music. The founders of jazz (mainly- but not all- who were black, were influenced by classical and African & Latin Rhythms)...which in turn influewnced Blues...then RnR...all the way to today's music....Music emerged not just from Black people...it emerged from many races and ethnicities.
My mother was an operatic alto. Classical music is not the foundation of all music. It is part of many forms of music. Definitely not the foundation. Don't act so ignorantly European.
@SamLeChiq People in Africa and the Slaveocracy South never heard or learned classical music, and it turned into this. In Classical Theory, Blues is almost totally wrong and silly, playing minor/major pentatonics over 7th chords in a I IV V progression. But these people got it to work, because they did not know the theory of classical music. I think the only true help that blues got from Classical music was the instruments.
@willwelsh816 there was no "lack" involved.... that's like saying western music "lacked" sophisticated rhythm.... there are different culture priorities when it comes to music and it resulted in very different music. classical theory is irrelevant unless you're playing classical music.... african rhythm is unnecessary unless you're playing african-influenced music.
@explosivejohnny Yes but the person who I quoted believed that Classical music was the god of all music, and everything else were its sons and daughters. The person said that Blues didn't just start from the black people, which is entirely false. Western music is actually much more sophisticated rhythm wise, all different time signatures. Blues was almost developed from a total lack of Classical Musical Knowledge.
@GiovaneFugazza10 never seen this, or buddy so young to be honest...when i read ur comment i wasnt expecting to share ur views. if not its defo up there.
SkAuthenticdank. You must be a real shit to talk like that about rap... If you love blues it's your choice but stop criticize rap music without any reason...
We all met the blues ,funny thing is before i listened this song for the first time i was in the woods drunk ,it took me 3 hours to get home........;)
The Chess classic ,awesome ,BTW Mega Triger is right about real hip-hop ,its not about competition between blues and hip-hop. Rap didnt kill blues ,blues will always live because the blues is part of life ,there is no life without blues ....right?
its really not about blues dying and rap living its about evolution.. no matter wat the smarter population of the US of A says... music is destined for destruction.. if its not already in a depression in its own but there is good hip hop.. i will say that.. if ur from the suburbs then u dont understand these kinda things
@dozie85 i dont think music is destined for destruction at all. It cycles throughout generations. My 12 yr old sister listens to justin bieber FOR NOW. There will be a first time she meets the blues and so forth with other legendary artists. Music never dies.
@MegaTiger1210 hip hop is a different music, It depends on what you listen to, Hip hop may not be your flavor. No need to call it crappy, just because you dont like it.
@LOQUITAA2 I bet if you ask megatiger1210 why he or she thinks hip hop is crappy, he or she wouldn't have a reasonable answer to it. I like and appreciate all music, this is some good stuff.
@4ULordSDG it is completely. Hip Hop is one of the forms blues took on as time progressed. But blues is music. Hip Hop isnt. In blues, u compose music. Which makes it music
@blackorpheliac1 The comment list is so long that I just can't remember what I actually commented to. Maybe because of my HATE for hip hop do I not connect them.. I see a connection from blues to rock, jazz, country but just not hiphop and modern r and b.
@blackorpheliac1 You don't compose the blues fool. It just comes out. Buddy didn't right any of that shit down. Don't get contemptuous about other genres Buddys kids are hip hop artists. It's as legitimate as any other form of music just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not music.
@CorneliusWizardhands Any music that has been made has been composed ignoramus. Even if it was just improvised. I never said that i didnt like hip hop. I'm haitian and jamaican. I was raised on hip hop, r&B, and Reggae. Its not music bc there's no music played. You can easily say that a speech is a song, according to your logic. Instead of calling me a fool, try to sway my logic with yours
@blackorpheliac1 what about hip hop groups like atmosphere? most members play instruments very well and a lot of the lyrical content focuses on the psychology and ethics of our society.
@MegaTiger1210 J Dilla is Hip Hop...MadLib is Hip Hop...Pete Rock is Hip Hop...DJ Premier is Hip Hop...DJ Quik is Hip Hop...People Under The Stairs is Hip Hop...Rakim is Hip Hop...Brand Nubian is Hip Hop...J-Live is Hip Hop...Lone Catalyst is Hip Hop...Living Legends is Hip Hop...Company Flow is Hip Hop...Hieroglyphics is Hip Hop...Smif N Wessun is Hip Hop...The Pharcyde is Hip Hop...A Tribe Called Quest is Hip Hop...De La Soul is Hip Hop...Jeru Tha Damaja is Hip Hop...you're listening to POP
I found it! I mean I have this song on a best of buddy guy cd of mine; but, I remember this Buddy Guy Mtv video in the 1980s; i've been going all over the place asking people if they know what I'm talking about! This is the video; it was just a seventies thing that Mtv showed in the 80s!
Saw this video on telly in the eighties on a weekend of jazz called Jazz on a summers day if i remember, it was also the first time i saw Miles playing. This still brings me all over goose bumps, and Juniors version of Help me, love you all blues lovers
this is such a good version of this song- raw, sung with feelin'. If you are one of the 13 fools who dislikes this- you OBVIOUSLY never had the blues. you just don't get it.
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."
@genxxxersize Actually T Bone Walker really is the bridge considering he influenced Buddy Guy, Albert King, all those jazz licks are straight from T Bone also he was the first to do "stunts" or "gimmicks" on stage but buddy did start the jam and improv cause the stone crazy song is 7 minutes long which probably made Chess angry and probably why they dropped him
@genxxxersize yeah, although rock and roll is a by-product of the blues- it just does not compare to this. Not even in the same class, not on this deep level. respect still.
". . . blues don't murder me." That's blues.

its really not about blues dying and rap living its about evolution.. no matter wat the smarter population of the US of A says... music is destined for destruction.. if its not already in a depression in its own but there is good hip hop.. i will say that.. if ur from the suburbs then u dont understand these kinda things

@dozie85 i dont think music is destined for destruction at all. It cycles throughout generations. My 12 yr old sister listens to justin bieber FOR NOW. There will be a first time she meets the blues and so forth with other legendary artists. Music never dies.

@MegaTiger1210 hip hop is a different music, It depends on what you listen to, Hip hop may not be your flavor. No need to call it crappy, just because you dont like it.

@4ULordSDG it is completely. Hip Hop is one of the forms blues took on as time progressed. But blues is music. Hip Hop isnt. In blues, u compose music. Which makes it music
blackorpheliac1 6 months ago
@blackorpheliac1 The comment list is so long that I just can't remember what I actually commented to. Maybe because of my HATE for hip hop do I not connect them.. I see a connection from blues to rock, jazz, country but just not hiphop and modern r and b.
4ULordSDG 6 months ago
@blackorpheliac1 You don't compose the blues fool. It just comes out. Buddy didn't right any of that shit down. Don't get contemptuous about other genres Buddys kids are hip hop artists. It's as legitimate as any other form of music just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not music.
CorneliusWizardhands 6 months ago
@CorneliusWizardhands Any music that has been made has been composed ignoramus. Even if it was just improvised. I never said that i didnt like hip hop. I'm haitian and jamaican. I was raised on hip hop, r&B, and Reggae. Its not music bc there's no music played. You can easily say that a speech is a song, according to your logic. Instead of calling me a fool, try to sway my logic with yours

@blackorpheliac1 what about hip hop groups like atmosphere? most members play instruments very well and a lot of the lyrical content focuses on the psychology and ethics of our society.

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."
genxxxersize 11 months ago
@genxxxersize Actually T Bone Walker really is the bridge considering he influenced Buddy Guy, Albert King, all those jazz licks are straight from T Bone also he was the first to do "stunts" or "gimmicks" on stage but buddy did start the jam and improv cause the stone crazy song is 7 minutes long which probably made Chess angry and probably why they dropped him
GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep 10 months ago
@genxxxersize yeah, although rock and roll is a by-product of the blues- it just does not compare to this. Not even in the same class, not on this deep level. respect still.
