"THAT DID IT BABY",
By Bluematter "Bluematter" (Colorado) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Deluxe Edition (Audio CD)
I've been a huge fan of Roy Buchanan since the seventies. I was lucky enough to see him perform at the old Rainbow Music Hall in Denver during his Atlantic years. The man was unbelievable! So cool on stage and the playing was superior to anything else at that time. Joe Walsh and Jeff Beck were talking him up at the time and for the guitar worshiping faithfull that was enough of an endorsement to seek him out. Sadly, he was unable to put it all together for a serious run to the masses before his death. However, for those who were experienced there were offerings out there to become mesmerized with. This past decade there has been now three compilations released. "Guitar on Fire-the Atlantic Sessions", the essential "Sweet Dreams", and this fantastic offering from Alligator. Roy deserves to be listened to as often as possible, but if you can't get hold of all his individual offerings then these three are must haves. This Deluxe Edition showcases all of Roy's styles while including some previously unreleased tracks. "When a Guitar plays the Blues" is arguably Roy's best track from these final years in the Studio. Now if Alligator would only release some of Roy's live cuts from his tenure with them on CD all would be right in my "Sweet Dreams". Bottom line on this offering is you need to order it now and remember what all the fuss was about. The man could make that guitar cry.

Deluxe edition a Roy compilation on the alligator records label has been taken from three of his best albums on that label HOT WIRES,DANCING ON THE EDGE and WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS.Roy was a very much underated guitarist like the late RORY GALLAGHER another fine guitarist from Ireland.This compilation features some of his finest material in PETER GUNN,FLASH CHORDIN,CHICAGO SMOKESHOP,WHIPLASH and WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS.Very highly recommended.
