  • Marty Scorsese told me when I interviewed him for the Hollywood Reporter ... about choosing Roy Buchanan's rendition of "Sweet Dreams" for the soundtrack of "The Departed": " 'Sweet Dreams' is like a theme that goes through the picture. The downbeat in the beginning of the song, the way Buchanan plays it, is so melancholy and so powerful that I thought, here's a perfect place for it, at the end of this movie -- so I put it there."

  • How can Rolling Stone justify his omission from the top 100? I mean Paul Simon makes the list? Paul Simon is a singer and songwriter first, guitarist second. Willie Nelson exact same. Mike Campbell? Why not Keith Scott if we're taking side men? No way are Leslie West or Johnny Winter better then Roy either, no way. Mike Bloomfield is never as important as Roy either. Annoys me. And Derek Trucks at #16... laughable when guys like Roy, Setzer and Gary Moore are not even listed. Call the cops.

  • Jimmy Nalls (sorry Jimmy)

  • in '73-'74, Roy wound play with DC Dog, he made Jimmy Noles(?) and the Dogs shine, too gracious!

  • @Gonzoidzz Puh-leeze....not the cops! Those omissions deserve at least the County Mounties and forty days in the hole! It's sickening, yes. And the ones left out of Rock & Roll Hall of Fame are also sickening. There is no explanation for it, except to remind you that there is no shortage of buttheads in this world.

  • @doctornoe Wow! What a story! What an incredible musician....and how horribly tragic his loss is to us music devotees.

  • lordy, lordy, lordy . . .

  • its that fuckin volume knob he loves tinkerin with

  • Seen Roy at the Schaeffer Music Festival in Central Park back in 75. I remember him acting a little overwelmed from the warm welcome he received and actually saying to himself "Roy, you made it!"

  • I've just recently found out about Roy Buchanan, this is a really good performance and I love his playing style! Thanks for posting!

  • Wow. That was beautiful. He puts so much feeling into each and evry note.
