Thanks for making this video. I love Roy's playing and it's too bad there's not a lot of video to watch of Roy playing and also another great musician taken to young.
LeRoy Buchanan
The best guitarist in our milky way,
Rest In Peace king of kings.
Wonderful comments from so many Roy Buchanan admirers. He is the undiscovered guitarist. RIP
Heavenly music to my ears ..... percise notes .... beautiful tone .... nice tempo with the flushbits restrained but powerful when need be ... the best ... the master ... the greatest by far ...
Effortless Shredding.......almost sickening the way he makes it look so easy with his relaxed state of playing. Very impressive.
Amen!
Saw Roy many times in Dallas and the 77 Austin City Limits show, great guitarist.
Cool!
Thanks for these vids! A record collecting group I'm a part of mentions names like Roy and Gary Moore and I never heard these guys before or if I did, I didn't know who it was. I'm surprised these guys aren't mentioned all the time along with the greats. Maybe because they weren't "flashy" enough, who knows but so glad to get a chance to see how great these guys really were!
Yeah it's just the way of the world, the spotlight is only ever on a few at the time where some great players go under the radar.
Roy is something else, shedding machine lighting that fret board up , trying some licks that takes a lot of precision and accuracy that takes unmeasured practices, that is no doubt in a class of guitar player by himself
Check out the book Roy Buchanan: American Axe if you want the full story on this phenomenal player. Great to see continued recognition of Roy.
Thanks for the suggestion Mark!
Saw Roy at the Ivanhoe in Chicago back during this period, he was all that..........amazing artist.
Was it the Ivanhoe or Park West ? I seem to recall we saw him around this same time ( it was a dark and foggy night ! ) .
@@jimfritz9503 Hi Jim, I'm sure it was the Ivanhoe, it was a great venue and a show that I'll never forget. Be well.
Roy Buchanon,Danny Gattons home base was the Crossroads in Bladensburg Maryland 2 mile outa DC. That was a mecca for guitar players,roy clark ,patsy kline,jimmy dean.all called crossroads home base back in the 50 s 60 ,70s clapton ,zappa wrldclass players show up to watch pg.county guitar players .we were house band bac alley same bldg we shared drummers those were the days
Cool!
I would have lost my mind during this show live everyone would
The leaves did a great cover a year earlier. Written by Billie roberts in 1962
Watching Roy who i think was ahead of his time like a many great guitarist you can see why Gary Moore was a keen admirer.
Also you can see bits of Roy in Gary Moores playing.......
Yeah definitely. Roy was introducing some cool stuff!
I asked my friend who's sister was married to Merle Haggard, What Merle thought of Roy and He said "Roy was 20 years ahead of His time".
One of the forgotten and greatly underrated guitarists of the sixties and seventies, who unfortunately left us early...
Yeah he's a massive loss to music.
"That's what I'm here for…" is my favorite RB Album... best album title ever also! Roy is the true Master of the Caster!
👍🙂
Strongly recommend Buchanan's 'The Messiah Will Come Again'.
I love Roy's rendition of green onions....
👍
Great videos brother, keep em coming.
FYI volume pedals had been around a long time before this
Yes that's true, but not as much or as cheap as nowadays!
a single coil equipped ,brigh sounding guitar,on full volume,will squeal harmonics ,without tons of gain,or much else ,Rory Gallagher is an example of this.
Magic
Fil, love your channel. You are the Prof Brian Cox of rock guitar, definitely a similarity there😊. Would you consider critiquing SRV & Beck's "going down " duel?. It has created quite a debate on yt. Great respect mate, Sean. Belfast.
Thanks Sean! I'll stick it on the list!
I've never even heard of this guy. Wow! Thanks for this.
Please review "Led Zeppelin: Jimmy Page best solo for me" sometime. It's the best example of Zep at its peak that was actually videotaped and an illustration of why Led Zeppelin are the most popular rock band in the history of the United States(excluding The Beatles)
Thanks for the suggestion!
I would like your comments on 3 guitarists, Frank Marino, Rory Gallagher, and Tommy Bolin.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Wow. They are the Guitarists I was going to suggest as well.
Three greats on the stratocaster !!! Good taste in music !
I've never heard this.. Thx..
No problem!
Just like D'wayne says. Billy Roberts penned the piece
👍
Please have a look at a very different recent version of Hey Joe by Kingfish.
FIL didn't he have a guitar that was wired out of faze he used for gigging. I believe it wound up in the hands of Lindsey Buckingham.
Cool! Nice background info!
Bobby Gillespie, some tasty lines
best hey joe of anyone,,,been playing him for decades!
Died in a jail cell, after being arrested for public intoxication I believe in Kentucky. Extremely sad considering his immense talent.
IMHO, Roy was one of the four greatest rock/blues guitarists ever; Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn,
Rory Gallagher, and Roy Buchanan.
you just like Rory cause you have the same name. Kidding.
Yes Sir, as a guitar player friend once said of Roy, " There are talented players and the gifted, Roy was gifted. "
Love your list but I would make it the 5 greatest and throw in Alvin Lee... :-)
Rory is one of my all time favorites. Loved him! First saw him open for Foghat after his Against the Grain album came out. Totally blew me away.
Gary Moore ? ?
I saw him 3 times- he was like a panther on stage- he wanted the crowd to be transfixed and he got it. Piercing tone that made your eyes vibrate.
I was blessed to see him a dozen times before he was murdered in his jail cell in Pawtucket Rhode in 1988. Loved the fact he preferred to play small venues.
Thank you! The world’s most underrated guitarist. Guitar, cable, amp, a hundred different sounds.
Amen!
Check out Danny Gatton roys freind
881 THUMBS UP AND 22 THUMBS DOWN THE 22 MUST BE JUSTIN BIEBER FANS THAT HAVE NO TASTE IN MUSIC ROY IS IN THE TOP TWENTY OF ALL TIME JUST ASK ANY MASTER GUITAR PLAYER
Yes sir and let's not forget Lonnie Mack! Thanks FIL. Rock
Amazing how many ‘worlds most underrated guitar player’ there are on this channel! Roy was never underrated.
One of my favorite guitarists...had his own voice. Met him in '79 once after a show at a small bar in Boston. He was outside the club leaning against a doorway having a smoke as rain was pouring down. I just went up to him and told him he was great...he thanked me with that shy smile of his. I will never forget that...saw him live a couple times after that...never had the same band. But always seemed so solitary...genius' often are.
Cool! Yeah it's a common thread.
SAM SMITH, wonderful memory. It's the Tele for me.
@Dr. Hannibal Lester 1971 pbs special ... titled .. " the worlds greatest unknown guitarist " ... well worth the watch .. you wont be disapointed ...
@Dr. Hannibal Lester But his wife was on his ass all of the time. Because he cared less about being a rock star and wealthy.
Roy had the uncanny ability to go from a weeping guitar through melodic joy to a convoluted migraine then into a bluesy stillness. No one like him.
Living proof that the Telecaster has everything you will ever need ! ( if you know how to properly use it ). Roy Buchanon was the undisputed master of the Telecaster !Sadly missed , and not fully appreciated in his own lifetime !
Amen!
Danny Gatton was close with Roy and they called him the master of the Telecaster . Both were as good as anyone you ever heard It was basically what style you enjoyed more with those 2 Artists .Both had insane speed !
yeah, the Telecaster is THE guitar to play, if youre good on that one, you are real good
incredible tone. does anybody know what amp hes using?
Fender Vibrolux I think. Listen to his tone on Live Stock, I've never heard a Telecaster sound that good before! It's made me want one now (been a strat guy all my life).
Saw Roy Buchanan come out on stage in 1972 in Philly with his guitar and an old brown amp, no band. I think warming up for Clapton. He killed it, and it changed my life.
If you notice at the bottom at his feet you will notice he had NO effects pedals, his tone was achieved by his knobs. He rarely used pedals, which you will not catch any performer without today. R.I.P Roy . Thanks Fil. 🤘
No problem! Yeah he just used the guitar and that was enough!
In the '80's he used plenty of effects. He wanted different sounds.
guardduck25 absolutely no effects but Roy's hands
bob733333 True very true
ChefandGuitar InChrist Yup
Saw Roy like 5x in the 70’s, I used to call him caterpillar fingers, he was and always will be a tremendous guitarist 🎸 R.I.P. Roy Buchanan
My God, Mr. Phil. EVERY time I hear Roy, I'm gobsmacked. This man was a wizard.
Roy was an exemplary musician! The first face that comes to mind when I see a telecaster. His tone was so beyond amazing. Sweet Dreams, Pete's Blues, Roy's Bluz, The Messiah Will Come Again, That's What I Am Here For, Cajun, Chicago Smokeshop, Soul Dressing, etc. So many great songs, his self titled album and the Live Stock record are my favorites. I discovered him and Rory Gallagher around the same time, an orgasmic revelation to say the least. You rock for giving him some shine, Fil.
No problem!
I was lucky enough to see him back up Johnny Winter in Chicago in 1986. It was amazing. My favorite album is his second.
Awesome!
I was at that show as well ,it was truly amazing !!!! He had the whole Aragon ballroom in a trance, I was there for Johnny Winter ,and became a huge Roy fan that wonderful day .The Johnny Winter show was great too , Lonnie Mack was also on the bill , I will never forget how Roy just camanded the stage
LUV LUV LUV ROY! 2nd album is a great one, 1st one, too...but "Live Stock" will ALWAYS be my favorite!!
@@billythekid5258 SIM! 1975
You've got a good ear my friend, I thought the world forgot Ol' Roy. Every guitar player HAS to listen to Roy Buchanan. Old school, kick ass playin'! Thanks for the vids Bro, digging them!
Thanks James! Yeah Roy was awesome!
Check out Roy's version of Sweet Dreams from the same concert...
Roy Buchanan, you deserve way more recognition! Thank you for highlighting this TELECASTER guru. There is no Guitarist like Roy before him or ever since. What a big crime it is that he wasn't given the recognition for his huge talent. RIP Roy. You will never be forgotten.
Amen.
In a relatively short period of time I saw him many times and his work was jaw-dropping and at every venue he played at I was able to stand or sit within a handshake distance away. He really was one of a kind
I think Jeff Beck is one of the few who still does the knob technique like that. But wow, what a blistering performance. There's just something about seeing someone shredding on a tele that makes my heart swell,lol. Excellent video!!! \m/
Yeah it's a huge part of his playing.
J bolo....re:jeff beck using technique....I read an excerpt by Jeff wherein he was on trip in NY and turned on the tele in the morning....watched a PBS special..probably this very show Roy played just one of his various (and naturally different) versiin of Hey Joe.
Beck said he was simply stunned and said "who is this guy? My whole life I've been trying to do (then he refers to a musical guitar technique) and have trouble w it but this guy does it at will"(sic)....
Later Roy composes a song My Friend Jeff..saying hello across. "the pond"...
And Jeff did we ended as lover's to Roy@@rycooder9486
Now I have found Roy on your video list! He and Rory Gallagher are two who made all of their effects with only their guitars and amps! That in itself puts them far above many of the most popular players of today! Now to move on and see if Harvey Mandel is here somewhere!
Yep Mr.Buchanan and Mr.Winter don't get much better for Blues n Rock guitar i saw Roy live in 88 or 89 just a month or so before he passed away...what a show...RIP BROTHER
The Greatest unknown guitarist! Ever seen that old video? RIP Roy!
Amen!
That concert was at George town university. I was a volunteer part time DJ at WGTB FM and we put the show on. That was when most rock stations were still AM.
if you never heard Roy Buchanan before i would also recommend giving 'Sweet Dreams' a listen.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Love it, yes!
Check out Danny Gatton
Sweet dreams was one of the three songs my brothers and I chose for our Dad's funeral, an amazing version by Roy
One of the most emotional renditions I ever heard.
@@wingsofpegasus
The studio version was ahead of it's time with the echoplex solo Roy was ahead of his time period actually I have a documentary on computer about him and he was a very down to earth guy. Another tragic loss.
Yeah I can't believe he was doing this in the 70's!
Yes, unfortunately, he was another brilliant guitar player who let the drink and drugs get the better of him. The Stones were after him after Mick Taylor left, but, when the call came in, Roy was passed out on H.
Monster of a telecaster player most underrated and unknown guitarist of the 1970s
Thanks for putting Roy out there for more people to hear & see. He always looked to me like a truck driver, construction worker, or as you say your fav uncle, not like an awesome guitar player. I understand his mom was a music teacher and he left home at a young age travelling around the USA learning from guitar players in New Orleans, LA studio players & country players, etc. He really deserves more recognition, I hope people who see this video check out more of his playing. He passed away in 1988, RIP, Roy.
Yeah if even one person sees him from this video it's worth it!
Amazing player with talent beyond belief !!!!! RIP Roy legends don't die they live forever!!!!!!
@@wingsofpegasus yeah me😀
Great post
I didnt know great guitarists were supposed to look a certain way... .
The earliest known version of "Hey Joe" was translated from cave paintings. The location is still up for debate but there's no mistaking the lyric "Hey Grog, where you going with that club in your hand?"
😂👍
I saw him in the mid 80s, great show, with all of his famous songs, Down by the River etc. Absolutely flat out the whole time and yet with tons of soul. At one point he was doing something fast and polka-ish in the middle of the fretboard then just took his hands away and the music kept going. It took most of us many seconds to realise the bassist had taken over some time earlier and was more or less shredding at the top end of his instrument, in a way that really shouldn't have been possible. Pure joy...
Haha awesome!
Great series, I really like your concept! The one on Let there be Rock is brilliant. A couple of things that might be fun to analyse: Rory Gallagher live gets close to AY for being mad and still playing accurately (e.g. ua-cam.com/video/CL80jFkLzQ0/v-deo.html); and this one of John Scofield is full of serious grooves and wicked teamwork - ua-cam.com/video/0KeYU8xG-ek/v-deo.html
Oh I love Roy Buchanan, such great tone and unique sound.
Yeah he was ahead of his time with some of those moves!
He mined the Telecaster’s lap guitar heritage, manipulating the instrument’s volume and tone controls with his pinkie to emulate the sound of wailing country steels. He could simulate a phasing effect, palm muting along the strings, and would flip from aching long sustained bends to breakneck-speed blues runs in a split second. The latter is a major element in Joe Bonamassa’s style. Jimmy Page used a ’59 Telecaster on the first Led Zeppelin album. Buchanan fan Jeff Beck pulled squawks, wails and sitar sounds out of his monumentally pimped 50s Tele with The Yardbirds.
This guy (never heard of him before, thanks) is as cool as ice! I wish I had that kind of "poker face" when I play. Geez....
Yeah, he ain't bothered haha!
roy was fantastic!,,,he killed himself by hanging,,a sad end to a monster guitar player!
joe bloggs it is highly disputed he killed himself. I believe something else happened that caused his death.
your belief and mine
Listen to his Loading Zone album. You'll freak o u t!
Roy was one of the rare forces of nature, Roy battled with many demonds and had his biggest impact on other guitarist, a gentle lovely big bear, miss him every day
I’m 62 & I saw RB at a small night club in the 1980’s,loved his playing.It’s great that younger generations are keeping his music alive,thank you.
Awesome! No problem!
Awesome. Looks like Austin City Limits. I miss that series. And that’s a young Dan Aykroyd in bass guitar.
Thank you, great video. Wow, Roy was a master at his craft. He brought a unique sound. Incredible technique, yet his playing was effortless. He let his guitar do all the talking.! A real guitar virtuoso.! 🎸
Awesome Video By The Way. I Like That You Really Pay Attention To The Details Of The Guitar Playing, It's Very Professional. Anyway, Thanks For These Awesome Videos!
No problem!
I decided I had not heard Roy Buchanan in too long so I looked up Hey Joe by him and had a listen. It had been too long. I suppose if most people hear Jimi Hendrix they don't think to themselves I am going to go out and buy a Telecaster and learn Jimi's music. Then I wondered if Fil from Wings of Pegasus has reviewed Roy and sure enough he had and to the same video I had just watched.
Roy is playing his version but his singing style is really not that different from Jimi's. Maybe a little more sedate but still conversational rather then pure singing. I admire how clean Roy's style is.
I remember hearing about his death but especially because it was in my home county of Fairfax Virginia. What a loss. RIP Roy.
Sometimes there are no words, just a big ol' smile!
👍
When you say Hey Joe by Hendrix, you mean Hey Joe covered by Hendrix. His is the most famous version of a song with very sketchy provenance.
Roy Buchanan was a Guitar Incarnate. He WAS a Guitar in human form.
Van Halen wasn't the only one watching and "borrowing". The Man was born in 1939. An Entire generation of players owe the man! He took himself somewhere along the way...in wee early days, but his playing was as I like to say about only VERY select few: "Other Worldly"! Mr Guitar Incarnate!
I think he was and is one of the most underrated guitarist.. He just makes me shake my head, wondering how he done it.
Naw, man...he got his due - he was always a legend. '60s guitar masters would flock to see him playing out.
👍
GREAT analysis. I saw Roy back in Feb 1988 (I believe one of his last shows before he tragically passed away) in Darwin, Australia. I was only about 12 years old at the time, but it blew me away.
I had the pleasure of playing with Roy one night in 1973. He was a huge influence on me. An old tele (with very low output single coils), a Vibrolux 2x10, some tiny jazz picks, no pedals or effects, and he rocked the World.
Awesome!
Yea the volume pedal is great but the volume knob is just faster and like chicken pickin to double bends if your going to be a lead player you need every riff and trick you can dream up in your arsenal.one of the tricks to volume knob play hit the fret board harder and the more pickups the better Great Video...
Thanks! Yeah so much can be done without pedals!
Ive never heard of Roy before. He is amazing!
Thank you Fil, the most underrated guitarist ever. Saw him in a bar late 70's. Did a slide solo with a beer bottle that boggled the mind. Roy is the blues. How about unless I missed it Rory Gallgher Bullfrog Blues or whatever. He's one of my top 5 with Roy. It's refreshing to see a young guy dig the Masters. Thanks again... Rick
No problem Rick!
I almost die every time I hear him. He is just something else....such a humble guy, decades ahead of his time, too good for this world
At the end of the movie ‘The Departed” as Matt Damon was walking to the door…Roy Buchanan’s ’Sweet Dreams’……Martin Scorsese is so genius…..
@@DaddyGabby Good catch:)
I saw Roy at a bar in MPLS....simply amazing....I'd love to hear your dissection of a live version of "The Messiah Will Come Again." my favorite Roy tune....I had to get a volume pedal just so I do what Roy does with his finger on the volume knob ....I have a dead tendon on my little finger so I can't do what I want with it.... make the guitar CRY!!
Excellent my friend. Roy kills it. Snuck into a club in my hometown as akid to see him in 78 or so. He covered Manic Depression and Crosstown Traffic if my memory serves me, as well as Purple Haze and Hey Joe. Roy played a strat that night. I thought my memory was wrong, but I saw photos from that show a few years ago and it was a strat indeed. Saw him 10 years later in San Diego with Lonnie Mack.
Here is a new one for you to consider: Glen Cambell covering R.Orbison's "Crying". Great vocal and wonderful strumming technique. Classic. I can't stop watching the vid. Also great guitar playing on "Gentle on my Mind". Thanks for the reviews, I am glad I found you.
Thanks for the suggestion John, I'll check them out!
@@wingsofpegasus i seen stevie ray vaugn borriw an epitone? (bad speller ) and play just as good as usual .. its on u tube ... its from 84?

BEASTMODE ...srv twice in one night .... sorry not roy story ... but bortowed guit story ..
Fil...when you are sitting at home bored to Corona....and you are asking yourself..."Self, can you listen to two songs that are polar opposites but played by same artist....first is an emotional song, second is an experinent with SOUNDS that a telecaster can make...and ask yourself how many artist have this ability?
1..Dual Soliloquy
Which one viewer here commented that at 15 he was sitting in the studio during this recording
2) Guitar Cadenza
I know this piece will horify many but I appreciate this ability not to be stale but always try.
Phil.....your a true breath of fresh air..watch your videos all the time ..Roy is fairly new to me......my God ...I don't think there's anyone I've seen..I'm 64..... with his level of skill. Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck have always been my favorites..along with Frank Zappa and Roy Clark....but this is Next LEVEL. Please critique Roy Buchanan " When a Guitar Plays the Blues" live. Thank you my friend . You have taught me alot about music. I don't play ..but when I retire I'm getting a guitar an amp and some headphones and teach ( torture ) myself. I LOVE guitar. So soothing and expressive Thank You
Thirty years after his death and in my opinion still nobody has surpassed the clarity of his tone.
👍
Billy Roberts wrote the tune. Great rendition.
Yeah it's such a different cool version!
Independently of who wrote it, what matters here is that it's not a Jimi Hendrix song.
good artist borrow, great artist steal - picasso
essentially what this means is great artist take something from someone else and make it their own
Santana - Oye Como Va ( Tito Puente )
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah ( Leonard Cohen )
Aretha Franklin - Respect ( Otis Redding )
Willie Nelson - Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain ( Fred Rose - originally performed by Roy Acuff )
Elvis Presley - Hound Dog ( Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller - originally performed by Big Mama Thornton )
the list goes on and on
Bullshit he stole it from this girl he dated. ua-cam.com/video/xN7otqp3MfQ/v-deo.html
If you can find a 'Rock Concert' video from 1974, you can watch Roy play past the fret-board, between the pickups on his Tele, and actually do a string trio, with his left thumb as the cello, and his first two fingers as the viola and violin. I watched it in awe at the time, and I've never heard him do it again. He had the pitches correct on all three strings, past the fretboard!
Cool!
Best version of Hey Joe I have ever heard! He made it his own just amazing.
He was the uncle by marriage of one of my high school best friends when first heard of him.. Never met him. Was sad to hear of his fateful ending. This was about the same time I discovered him, 1975 or 76 about.
Yes, they said, 'the greatest guitarist nobody ever heard of.' I knew him, very little but through a lifelong friend who played with him for years called Kenny 'Goose' Goslin. Roy loved to drink and would at times return home a bit drunk.
However, his wife was a real bitch and I never use that word loosely. She incessantly got on Roy which just drove him to drink more. Once after yet another marital dispute, Roy was arrested for public drunkeness, he was put in a Fairfax Co. (Va.) jail not far from my place.
Roy finally after trying to reach Goose who wasn't available, felt he had to call his wife to come get him out and she refused. So that night in jail with his shirt...Roy hung himself.
Art. Roy didn't hang himself it was police cover up.
This I believe is the sad facts of his suicide.
@@michaeladrian2210 I got that from Goose afterwards.
my new fav show keep`em coming.
Thanks Jeff! Will do!
King of pinch harmonics and volume.tone swells..rolling the knobs...Missed only 48...when lefts this earth
👍
Roy could play guitar. I have him on vinyl WHEN A GUITAR PLAYS THE BLUES
You Will Never Guess Who Just Liked Your Video. Of Course You Guessed, It Was ME!
Haha thanks!
one of the most underrated guitar players.
Roy - Never forget watching him play Sweet Dreams on The Old Grey... I wondered and thought how he got such a saturated sound. Fender Vibrolux played a big part. When I became a Fender dealer a Vibrolux came along. I knew this was a different amp from the other Fenders as the front end is very noisy. (it's flat out in the second stage) For a small-ish combo it sounds massive. In the right hand's ie Roy for example - it's a beast. Lucky for me I have managed to not sell the amp in a long time.Guess it's mine when I retire!
First saw Roy at the Roxy Theatre in Northampton, PA. We were infront of the 1st row on the floor. We smuggled in a couple of cold six packs. During the performance we gave Roy a beer and he was thankful. Absolutely Tremendous.
No guitar player comes close to the ability Roy had. Gone too soon. Maybe Derrick Trucks might come closer than most guitar players.
Amen!
I was awed seeing 13 year old Trucks , the Layla video, playing with his eyes closed. He wasn't trying to impress, he was in a zone. But he has not CREATED new sounds like Roy.
I think you liked that one as much as I did! I couldn't keep a smile off my face either! That guy was great!👍😎🎸🎶
:)
Lots of 60's 70's era players used that volume knob. Townshend used it as sort of a vibrato/tremelo sound. Jeff Beck actually preceded Roy doing this. Roy's jazz/blues lick were unparalleled.
👍
I was lucky enough to get to see him live in the middle 70’s.
PHILL..............THAT IS THE
PERFECT WORD YOU USED at
5 : 28 into the vid, RIDICULOUS!
Another GREAT GUITARIST and
Another WONDERFUL INSIGHTFUL

No problem!
Got one name for you Fil
Rev. Blind Gary Davis
Loved him in the 70's. Still have some of his records. All great stuff. I don't think I've heard him do this piece though. He owns it and make's it his. Great video.
Guitar Cadenza !!
Possibly the most underrated player of all time. Not by me he was amazing.
👍
