New Buddy Guy - "Blues Singer"

To me, "Blues Singer" is Buddy's best album in years, and the sonics are excellent.

Love the CD. Any other acoustic blues cd like this one?????? any suggestion anyone??? thanks

Firstly, let me state that Buddy Guy is perhaps one of the best blues guitarsts alive. I found his Blues singer a bit of a let down compaired to one of the greatest albums ever Sweet Tea. I will also state that I saw both shows in NYC and quite a few were disappointed at the blues singer show. At the sweet tea show people were more than cheering,
they were gasping. They did not believe that anybody can be this good. Buddy Guy himself commented that he will no longer look at the song list, or alloted time per track. He
knew something special was going on. Acoustically, Buddy Guy & Junior Wells, "Alone & Acoustic" is by far better. I
urge every Buddy Guy fan to go out & get Sweet Tea, but beware you will expect this kind or preformance from him all the time.

Surfgod,

Thanks for that Buddy Guy reco to all of us. I must try to lay my hands on that. Do you know if it is available on vinyl?

I have Buddy Guy's "I Left My Blues in San Fransisco" on vinyl. I can say that I'm very disappointed by it - I find Buddy shrieking all over the place in every song! Drives me crazy! And, it's supposed to be one of his better efforts! Compared to other offerings that I have from BB King, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters & the Chess Records samplers, I find this part. album rather bad, if I may say so. I know that I like the Blues very much but my taste in this genre is still developing. Maybe I need to bolt myself in my seat & listen again (rather than jumping up & lifting the stylus off!).

Unfortunately Buddy will never get his due until he has passed...ala SRV.....
