I for one love audience recordings of awesome shows. And I am a friend of Buddy. And I saw the next to the last show with SRV at Alpine. I'm loving this.
Im with JIMJIM506 on this glory Im still tryin to work out Champagne-N-Reefer they did together that was like the length of time to park the Titanic at the bottom of the Northwestern Sea. I'm extremely sure the Titanic didn't go down n 25 minutes but Glory to the Gods if not during that song I thought she sure did.
does it really matter whos using a maple or rosewood neck? cant we just agree that two of the best blues players ever are playing together and its amazing
@moe354sa I hear this all the time about how you can tell the difference, but I call BS. SRV uses much darker sounding overwound pickups and fat strings and Buddy prefers a brighter sounding pickup and normal gauge strings. The string gets cutoff at the fret wire, and some guitars have scalloped frets or high fret wires and the string never even touches the neck when it's fretted. The difference in the neck is in feel. The rosewood necks are raw, oiled wood whereas maple is finished.
@ruelsmith no the maple makes the sound brighter you don't need pickups to tell the difference just play two different strats with either neck unplugged you will hear a very distinct rosewood tone and a very distinct maple tone if you don't get your ears checked and don't try to be my guitar tech ever..
It's still pretty good. That's why the dead used to let people set up in a spot for micing only. Some of the recordings you could not not tell the differance from the board or the crowd recording. Omni directional mics with some of the best recorders on the market, you would have to spend at least 2,000 for a good set up with 20 foot towers. But if you listen to some of them now it was well worth it.
Old Man Again: Chicago, 1993, at a conference in Chi Town... found Buddy's Bar on a Tuesday night... Walked in, comfortable, great young blues players kickin... sat at the Bar next to a man I didn't really recognize, but seemed familiar.... grabed a beer and mentioned that I thought they were very good, Yeah he said, "this is audition night... ", "bye the way my name is Buddy".... I sat there in awe for two and a half hours and listened to this ICON... Blues flooding my soul. Love for the blues
@NJBOYW Played at Buddy's in 2003, one of the best nights of my life, did a rendition of Born in Chicago in tribute to Paul Butterfield, and Buddy was there, and after I came offstage, he motioned me to come over and told me I was one of the best harp players he had heard in long time, the best compliment i have ever been given, but i was humbled at same time, being in presence of one of the legends. I love playing the blues, and the reason i play well is that it comes from the heart!!!
@NJBOYW it definitely was a night to remember and cherish, but at the same time, it was humbling in that i never think about how good i am playing or singing, am just so into the song and let it come from my heart, guess that's why i sound good, because it's genuine
@BLUESMANRONCHICAGO : Old Man Again I have played the Blues, drums, voice, but I express the blues in poetry, soundless words on a page... I envy giving your musical soul the the essense of being a human being.... KEEP ON KEEPEN ON.....
Awesome upload......He knows how to work an audience like no other !!! My drummer got to go drinking with his drummer from the "Stone crazy " album after a show back in the 80's .....The guitar player at the time got to jam with Buddy a few times as well.....Lucky ,Lucky, Lucky.....F$#@$ Peace & Blues
Awesome!!! I used to have a cd that had this on there and it got destroyed. Ive been looking for this for a long time Thanks for up loading. That beginning solo is red hot!
love the clarity of the maple . . .,,I don't got the finger strength SRV had to do the slight bends on rosewood
