Buddy Guy is a true blues legend that still entertains audiences worldwide today! Photo courtesy of Wikipedia.org<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We’re so fortunate to still have Buddy Guy performing on stage today, but I wanted to back in time a little bit and find some early Buddy Guy videos to share with you.\u00a0 Buddy Guy puts on a great show and has appeared on stage with a lot of great players.\u00a0 Some of the videos I found feature classic performances from Buddy Guy and even a tribute Buddy Guy did for Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and John Lee Hooker.\u00a0 I hope you enjoy the videos as much as I did!<\/p>\n

The first video is a blues favorite and it’s called “Sweet Home Chicago.”\u00a0 Buddy Guy plays a great version of it at a show in Houston, TX.\u00a0 Check it out at http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xuRhaDrnlWo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The next video comes from the movie Chicago Blues in 1970 and features Buddy Guy performing the song, “First Time I Met The Blues.”\u00a0 Find it at http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=k_rd8y8A2oE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Buddy Guy performs probably the fastest version of the song, “Knock On Wood,” that I have ever heard.\u00a0 It’s smoking!\u00a0 Check it out at http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hpa6nvfxmLI&feature=related<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The last video I want to share with you features a tribute that Buddy Guy performed for Cream, Hendrix, and Hooker.\u00a0 Find it here at http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XQqNTgnJmpE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These videos only count for a small taste of the extensive song collection of Buddy Guy, but hopefully it’s enough to wet your appetite.\u00a0 There’s plenty more out there about blues great, Buddy Guy.<\/p>\n

Thanks,<\/p>\n
