Buddy Guy (Official Thread)

[joker1961]

Well, I've had the album for some days now and I'm blown away by it. I always expect a lot from Buddy and he always delivers, even at 79. I think "Born to Play Guitar" is even better than "Rhythm & Blues". Man, we are blessed to have Buddy around!

ooh yes I`m well in to it too! Sharp Dressed Man...

Amen to that!

I had the Sweet Tea cd about 10 or 12 years ago and thought it was a very good listen from start to finish with Buddy and band playing it loud and very electric which made the album quite heavy all the way through in a Blues/Metal down south swamp rock style.

I colourised these of Buddy Guy back in the 60s, they're not perfect but hopefully it'll give a new look to these videos from back in the day:
