My wife surprised me with tickets to see Buddy Guy & B.B. King. It was fantastic.

I finally seen him on his fairwell tour in Baton Rouge I’m the one that screamed play that dame thing! And he said you just wait one fuckin minute and I will 😎 I’ll cherish the moment forever knowing my hero spoke back to me

Sick part is I can play every single one of these notes. Just not in the same order or at the right time

I saw Buddy twice at the Iron Horse Cafe, a little bar/coffeshop in Northampton Mass. The restrooms were down the celler and so was the performer's dressing room. When I came out of the ladies' room there was Buddy in the dressing room, sitting on a couch, and warming up with his unplugged guitar. Course I went up to him - told him how much I love his music and admire him - and asked if could shake his hand. He said "Come over here babe and let me give you a great big Buddy Guy hug." and he did. His body was like a rock! Harder than any weight lifter. Later that evening I was sitting right by the stage, and when he did "Stormy Monday" I started singing along. He walked right over to me and said "There's a gal who knows what it is to sing the blues!" and he sang and played that whole song right to me, right in front of me. That performance is seared into my brain forever.

Buddy Guy Is the blues.  He's is the greatness guitarist .  He's Just as good as Hendrix, Stevie Ray.  He's can show others how to play.

This guy absolutely tears apart that guitar. You could play a thousand notes a minute and still not even touch the kind of sheer beauty that comes out of a guitar in the hands of a proper blues guitarist.

2:16 is the like one of the most bad ass moves I've seen so far.

I'm 15 and my favourite genres to play are blues and classic rock! and I hope to one day pass this on to my future kids! Gotta keep the blues alive!

What ❤ Amen to legendary forever. Soul you don't mess around with in purified of spirits.

[charliehutchinson]

He's got incredible soul in his playing. Not to mention how much fun it looks like he's having. This is everything I aspire to be as a musician.

I came across to this almost accidentally .. don't know why, but he started to sing, he made me cry and gave me a sense of relief. Got caught completely by surprise. The power of music is greater than we imagine.

"I've been foolin' with it for quite a while and there's still a lot I don't know about the guitar."
#HappyBirthday Blues Legend Buddy Guy! #borntoplayguitar

Buddy says more with a few bends than most bluesmen could hope for.
The blues isn't about speed. It's about feeling. Buddy knows how to bring it out. I have no doubt he has forgot more than I will ever learn!

[Leonard]

Look at this, the guitar is part of his body, i mean, he plays the guitar like he talks or simply breathes. This man is a god...

[joejamison]

Who are the 520 people who put a thumbs down to this? This is some of the finest playing and singing that we as a human race have been blessed to witness. Thanks Buddy- for all you gave and continue to do. I'll never forget the times I had the pleasure to be in your company . Your wit and humbleness never ceased to amaze me and your talent and greatness never overshadowed your ability to relate to people, you are the finest example of what a true artist represents!

[jaminsmith]

Just saw him live and it really was amazing. Glad to see he's still rippin it
