anybody that says this song is not good or has no good guitar playing doesnt know for the life of them what good guitar playing is. and that is a fact.

Looking around for videos of Roy Buchanan, I came across this one. If you think this is subpar, why don't you post a video reply where you show how it should have been done? Or even demonstrate that you can make the same sounds yourself. Roy's performances, like it or not, showcased his guitar mastery and this is a piece of his body of work. All serious electric guitarists study Roy Buchanan and the great players acknowledge his genius.

i'm not denying roy's obvious musicality in many great songs, but this song is truly raping my ears.. he sounds so obnoxious..

this song is subpar.

Looks like Justin Bieber got in on rating this video...one thumbs down.

I was reading through Guitar World's list of top 100 worst guitar solos. Well, I was surprised to see this Roy Buchanan piece on the list, so I came here to give it a good listen. It's not THAT bad! It sure sounds like good ol' Roy, but I have heard solos that were much worse.... *cough* (led zeppelin's "heartbreaker.") Wait... did I say that out loud?

Then again, nothing beats "The Messiah Will Come Again." That's Roy at his finest!

Fuck yeah!

I've tried to like Roy Buchanan but he's the only guitarist that manages to hurt my ears with his piercing treble. I know Tele's are bright but this is like looking into the sun.

This is #1 on my list of awesomeness!!!!!! If I ran for president, this would be my entrance song, and I'd be wearing stilts.Seriously though... In a world where musicians are rated and categorized, its easy to see why the majority of people wouldnt understand whats going on in this song.

@coopertrooper87 Well you're entitled to your opinion. I love Roy, and I don't like everything he did either. But I've always thought this song was killer! One of my favorites by Roy.

Buchanan creates such horrendous and annoying tones with his guitar that a more-appropriate title for this song would have been “Poking My Tele Up Godzilla’s Poop Chute.”
