Does anyone else come back to watch this over the years?
-
No effects pedals. Not even a whammy bar. Just a man and his incredible skill.
-
Truly a performance for the ages. I wonder if the audience knew they were experiencing a once in a lifetime event. Roy was a genius, he didn't so much as play, but channeled music from his soul like SRV and Hendrix. His Telecaster wasn't an instrument, it was part of him. I never get tired of watching/listening to him play.
-
Note: no pedals; no changing guitars every song; no set list on the floor; no nothing but a tour de force unleashed by the ultimate professional. His break into Foxy Lady amazing.
-
I wanted to be like Jimmy Page and wear a Les Paul down at my ankles...but then I saw THIS show back in 1976! I was spellbound watching the TV and was totally blown away by his playing at the time, and almost 40 years later...I still am.
-
im a guitar NERD and theres not one guitar player out there that mesmerizes me to watch play the way Roy does. he leaves me with my jaw dropped and sometimes drooling CONSTANTLY, this is no exaggeration. absolute master of his instrument
-
Clean really clean. Sweet No gimmicks on the Tele. Look at his feet, no pedal board on the floor..fkin tapping befor EVH. Killer talent
-
Genius Absolute genius. Incomparable. First heard "Sweet Dreams" forty years ago and was knocked out by Roy,s playing. The greatest guitar player EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Simply one of the best guitar players you will ever see. No gimmicks, no rubbish just plain old brilliant playing. Roy should have been far more well known and not to just guitar players. RIP Roy... there will not be another one like you.
-
Precision playing ,no mistakes hidden with effects.Killer,Roy was The Master of The Telecaster
-
nobody got that sound but Roy. no one could make a tele sound like THAT but Roy
-
All these audience looks so beautiful without camera on there hands literally listing and enjoying. I wish I was in this era.
-
In the face of relentless decades of exhibitionism and hyped mediocrity, we ought to be thankful that we have had the good fortune to hear a handful like Roy Buchanan-- a man whose virtuosity, musical imagination, and humility will continue to stand the test of time.
-
I cannot believe that 87 people thumbed this down. This man was pure music and at the top of his game in this performance. This version of Hey Joe is one of the greatest recorded pieces of music I have ever heard.
-
To me, Roy Buchanan was one of the most gifted guitarists that ever lived, I admire him every time I hear him.
-
His control and confidence...it is not forgettable. It is grit and harmony, blues personified.
-
Roy Buchanan and Rory Gallagher the 2 best guitarist's ever in my opinion, never see their likes again.
-
Thanks Dad for turning me on to Roy when I was 9. RIP Old bluesman ❤ 🙏
-
Listen to Roy when I'm running.... always find another gear....pure inspiration....greatest in my humble opinion....love the guy
-
I was lucky and had a chance to have a great talk with Roy. It was in Boston sometime in the 70's. It was before a concert. Billy Price was his singer at the time. Billy and I went too high school together. Roy told me. Learn you scales on the guitar! I was just starting to play. He has to be the most underated guitar player ever! Thanks Roy! We could use you guitar playing in the world now!
