Buddy's just mad that Jimi became immortal in only being famous for 4 years as opposed to Buddy still playing in his 70's in small venues trying to copy Jimi. He can't let it go
I got to see Buddy about 6 months after this gig! It was just as explosive! He played Jimi, EC, Stevie, BB, Albert, whoever, but most of all he played Buddy!!!
You can obviously hear Buddy’s influence on Jimi. Jimi acknowledged that. But Hendrix was his own man and had a sound all his own. Beautiful chord work & great rhythm his superstar contemporaries didn’t have in their bag, at that time. His creativity and songwriting talents were what has made Hendrix stand the test of time, not just the crazy feedback, screaming guitar & showmanship. He was a true original artist. Buddy has his thing too. Just enjoy them all!

Buddy Guy is a guitar god of guitar gods and rightfully a legend. I saw him play in Chattanooga a year ago, maybe a little longer MAN! He has NOT lost a thing!!! He was amazing. Best concert I've ever been to...... barr none. As long as we kept clapping and yelling for him he kept playing. The man is under appreciated by today's audience and that is their loss. He is breathtakingly talented, and even more incredible live. I've been a fan for as long as I can remember and to see him in concert was on my "bucket list" He didn't disappoint!
Met Buddy in the 80's at a block party. He was playing with Koko. Between sets i rapped with him,nicest guy you ever want to meet. While he was playing he could see I was into his playing and he would take it up another notch. I offered to burn some reefer with him,he declined but asked if he could have one for later....I obliged. He was a badass then and still is now.
Dude if that's true then you have a fucking Gem of a memory right there! I know you will, but cherish that the rest of your life! What an amazing experience with probably the world's most influential guitarist of all time. This guy produced so many great rock guitarists.. how cool!! ✌🖤🤘
Buddy used to play a venue in downtown Fort Worth called the Caravan of Dreams. He was doing his “Jimi” thing back in the early 90’s. I saw him many times there.
He's so awesome. I saw him at a club in New Haven in the mid-90s and he changed my perspective on the blues and guitarists forever. What a showman and what a great guitarist.
I first started going to Buddy’s January shows at Legends about this time. Good to see Marty on keyboards and Tim on drums. Unfortunately both have passed away, may they RIP. But Orlando on bass and Ric on rhythm are still going strong. As is Buddy, amazingly!
Buddy Guy was Hendrix hero is beautiful how he’s human humble enough to pay his respects to the late and still missed Jimmy Hendrix- love 💕 you Buddy!!!
Buddy may be doing some things reminiscent of Jimi, but Jimi learned most of his wild playing antics from Mr. Buddy Guy. Jimi has even stated so in multiple interviews. Many guitar players owe something to Mr. Guy.
The difference is, that while Jimi was playing, he was creating, and not imitating. That, to me is what made his playing so intriguing and exciting to listen to. But no doubt, Buddy probably had an influence on Jimi in one way or another.
His guitar looked scared, with Buddy taking it to the stratosphere and beyond. Poor guitar could barely catch its breath! Buddy is a master and one of my favorites bluesman. God bless you Buddy.
Johannes, As a DJ on public radio hosting Breakfast with the Blues for the past 16 years and a life long musicolagist, I know a thing or two about both artist, along with seeing over 200 Buddy shows. I'm not some rookie shooting from the hip. I'm certainly not knocking Jimi by any stretch, for rock / blues guitarist, he'd make my short list for sure. If you really want to spin your ear, listen to "Southern Rag" by Blind Blake. No studio tricks there in 1927, just Arthur playing 3 parts at once along with vocals. Probably the greatest finger picker in the genre of all time. Buddy's skills along with being fleet of fingers on the frets is the god of tones. The benchmark for all those who aspire to play the guitar...the total package.
I have never heard of or seen proof of Jimi being influenced by Buddy Guy, outside of (of course) knowing what blues cats came up from the delta to Chicago. Jimi was influenced by all the founding fathers of the blues, but this "rumor" that Buddy has been spreading for several, several years about "showing Jimi all that he knew" and all that crap, is almost totally bull. YES they interfaced and jammed in the 60s. And, Janie Hendrix bought in to the whole thing such that, in the 2010s, Buddy was placed as the showcase as the experience hendrix tour where he continued to spew this crap about Hendrix (who is dead and can't prove/disprove it) with Janie Hendrix there on stage $miling all the way. Rubbish.
Loving how he gave Holmes that broken string. Man what a cool gift!! Honestly... I would keep that string forever. And when the time came, I would pass it on.
B.B. King on Mr. Buddy Guy: "I think Lucille liked Buddy better." You are watching a video of the man that gave Jimi Hendrix the idea of playing guitar with his teeth. Jimi immitated Buddy. Not the other way around. Thanks for sharing the video of this master though.
Wow so many people have it so wrong. if you don't believe that Jimi literally worshiped Buddy, all you have to do is look it up. When asked what is heaven to you Jimi replied "Heaven is sitting at Buddy Guy's feet and listening to him play guitar" Man, if you can except that from Jimi Hendrix himself then you have problems! Also check out quotes from Clapton, Beck, Jimmy Page, John Mayer and the late great Stevie Ray, all of which refer to Buddy Guy as the greatest living guitar player and one of their biggest influences... including Clapton verifying that he himself watched Buddy play behind his head, with his teeth and then throwing his guitar in the air when upon catching it he hit the right cord immediately! Well before Jimi ..look it up and if you don't believe almost every legendary musician you know and realize that you're utterly wrong and severely uneducated... you cannot be helped and shouldn't be giving opinions on something that you clearly know nothing about! sorry for ranting but some of these people are seriously daft.
There is a great interview (and its on UA-cam) where Buddy Guy says he wasn't the best south side guitar player. There were guys so much better than him but they had to quit and go make money driving a truck or working in a factory. Then he has this far off look in his eyes and he sees them in his mind's eye. Who were those players? Wow.
+Yayito_Rock VenMur Buddy may have influenced Hendrix, just like ANY musician Jimi ever heard play, but Hendrix never' ripped' anyone off. The man was one of kind. Period.
The first time I saw Buddy Guy was at the main stage at a festival in Seattle Washington known as Bumbershoot. This was when it was 5.00 a day or 15 for the entire 3 days and General Admission seating I was 17 years old, he had hair wore polka dots and played a polka doted strat. During the show he came off the stage and played for people inside the audience. The second time I saw B.G was at the Paramount in Seattle and he had Eric Gales with him
Hendrix watched Buddy Guy at the Marquee club London, then immitated him, with the playing with teeth behind his head, and every other trick in the book... Buddy Guy WROTE the book that Hendrix read and learned from... No one else before Buddy and only one after after SRV, there's been others but they were the Big 3 for that style of playing and showmanship, but Buddy Guy was THE ORIGINAL.. Before him you had T-Bone Walker but nowhere the level of Buddy as The Generation beforehand who invented electric/started bending strings etc
I have to agree with the others that said Buddy is not imitating anyone as much as I worship Jimi. Rather there is a video of Jimi looking up in awe at Buddy playing at a concert and even recording it I believe it. You can hear his influence in Jimi's playing. I bet Jimi would have thought this was an honor for him having Buddy cover one of his songs.
Ha, I saw somewhere Jimi saw Buddy Guy and that was it. Born Jimi Hendrix. Nothing wrong with that. Buddy was Jimi before Jimi was Jimi. LOL. They both paid the dues and played with all the greats as backup guitar players also.
Buddy was psychedelic before they knew what psychedelic was he was playing one handed doing the splits playing behind his back and head (Pete Townsend was smashing instruments before Hendrix)
Buddy doesn't just play he feels every singular fiber of his being through his guitar and had become so expertice and gifted 👀And as I've learned... You can play a guitar with anyyy muffikin thing and make it work☮️👀 *Anything* Dun lie 🤣❤️
It was such an unprecedentedly volatile period in American History, Jimi's day.....we had our leaders being assassinated, we had Nam, the Panthers, kids putting flowers in the barrels of rifles that Americans were pointing at Americans, (BTW, the bayonettes were attached) , and so Jimi decided to send out a message of love. And man we sure needed it.
after the 1990's i think guy started suffering dementia. he's either fucking around or staring or talking nonsense. you got to hear him berfore 2000 he was a genius.
True that! I'm old an I blab. But that's mostly because I'm deaf too and I spend quite a bit of time sayin "what was that?" Too many decibels over too many yrs. I don't think Buddy was up to much here except mischief. I'm not mistaken Jimi wrote Voodoo Child... ? Great tune - one of his best. "With the back of my hand'. he could've played that with his toes ....
Get down with your bad self Buddy you can play Jimi all night you can play lots of people but we know it is you❤ Damn Right I got the blues from head to my shoes.
So true that jimi played like buddy in some psicodelic style and songs look alike,,but way more understandible agressive atack or with more killing sound and accuracy in his playing ,,with respect to Buddy ofcourse.. hes one of a kind out of this dimension ,,my opinion ok,,,
Buddy of all the artists is the least afected and the most gracious especially to the younger ones. As far as those that "do" Hendrix , to me the one who "feels" the most like him was Gary ,Moore
the only guy who has ever gotten the same feel as Hendrix is SRV, and even then his solos were not as strong as Jimis. Respect to Buddy Guy but hes no Jimi.
Buddy isn’t imitating Jimi here, he’s just being Buddy.
Correction...that's Buddy guy imitating Jimi Hendrix imitating Buddy Guy.
I like that
correct.. big smile
Buddy's just mad that Jimi became immortal in only being famous for 4 years as opposed to Buddy still playing in his 70's in small venues trying to copy Jimi. He can't let it go
i agree he seems really bitter about it
Jaime Munoz Yeah, but jimi made a good bunch of rock songs and gets inmortal for that.
just imagine if Jimi was still alive he'd being doing gigs like this as an old man
Be interesting for SURE!!!!
If jimi were still alive he’d be playing sold out stadiums
If Jimi was still alive and touring they wouldn’t be concerts they would be events.
NOBODY, BUT NOBODY CAN IMITATE JIMI HENDRIX! YOU WISH BUDDY!!
It’s a shame jimi was so addicted to drugs, died in his prime
I got to see Buddy about 6 months after this gig! It was just as explosive! He played Jimi, EC, Stevie, BB, Albert, whoever, but most of all he played Buddy!!!
Wow! Hes' almost 80 here! A force of the nature! Thank you, Buddy!
Buddy is notorious for doing this in his live shows.
He strongly influenced them all how to play.
Not bad for a 79 year old master.Hendrix is smiling up there.
You can obviously hear Buddy’s influence on Jimi. Jimi acknowledged that. But Hendrix was his own man and had a sound all his own.

Met Buddy in Houston I was 6 he was looking for pot he went to Victoria TX w my sis and he played for us at my casa😊

Buddy was on a concert show for Blues Legends, may have even been for BB king - and he played Voodoo Chile. Absolutely nailed it. Incredible.
When the legend you looked up to now recognizes you're also a legend and plays your songs. 🤙
I love you Buddy we are so blessed you share your gift with us!!! THANK YOU!
That does it. Buddy Guy is the greatest human being that has ever lived. Hands down.
The difference is, that while Jimi was playing, he was creating, and not imitating. That, to me is what made his playing so intriguing and exciting to listen to. But no doubt, Buddy probably had an influence on Jimi in one way or another.

His guitar looked scared, with Buddy taking it to the stratosphere and beyond. Poor guitar could barely catch its breath! Buddy is a master and one of my favorites bluesman. God bless you Buddy.
Been there right next to the stage on the right side. Buddy is the best guitar player of our time.

I found buddy guy as a teen,he used to play on a guild guitar ,producing a fluttering style of his own I still like.
There is a famous picture of Buddy Guy in concert, and in the front row watching in awe is a young Jimi Hendrix.
Just a small note! Buddy Guy taught jimmy how to play like Jimmy Buddy was his mentor!
Patrick Teto jimi was self taught

andrew wheeler Janie is a moron too!
Patrick Teto
influenced, not taught or copied, as far as I know.
Jumi was pretty much self taught.
andrew wheeler hendrix canceled one of his shows cause buddy was playing the same night in the same area, and went to watch his show instead
Jimi was so cool and relaxed on that jam -no aggression ,no competition,no denigration
buddy guy was one of jimis favorite guitarists.
Hendrix owed this man a debt of gratitude. Buddy may very well be Jimi's main influence.

Don't forget about Billy Gibbons who Jimi also admired.

Jimi was a big big fand from buddy guy he had live him so respect to buddy
I could have sworn that Jimi idolized Buddy, he basically got his style from Buddy. Buddy is a legend!
Buddy Guy ....A Blues Master!!! A Guitar Playing Master!!!! Simply the best!!!!
Ain't no foolin' 'round with Buddy - the man can smoke it.
That behind the head guitar playing is a Buddy Guy move. Hendrix loved it.

Buddy Guy was always a great guitarist just a shame he never got as much fame and attention as Hendrix or Clapton in the 60s
krama is a bitch it bite you in the ass Jimi was better buddy is washed up time to retire rip peace Mr hendrix
wohow, some moves and licks here, I think Jimi would love it...I am sure he would
But then jimi came along and made a whole new sound 😎

The first time I saw Buddy Guy was because Jorma Kaukonen said he & BB were his favorite players (& Rev Gary Davis for a different reason)
Most folks don't know that Jimi was Buddy's father. Yes, time travel is trippy!
Correction Jimi Hendrix imitated no one. If so name the guitar player and songs that sound like Hendrix before Hendrix hit the scene?
Ha, I saw somewhere Jimi saw Buddy Guy and that was it. Born Jimi Hendrix. Nothing wrong with that. Buddy was Jimi before Jimi was Jimi. LOL. They both paid the dues and played with all the greats as backup guitar players also.
The other way round I think! Jimi imitated Buddy.
Buddy Guy is a ICON!!!
Buddy Guy was cranking it way before Hendrix
Respect everyone respect
Way before? They were born 6 years apart.
And so was curtis mayfield strat funk playing that why Eddie Van Halen is the best
Nobody can imitate either of these legends except maybe Randy Hanson
Agreed. Randy Hansen 👍
You have to love a musician who comes out in his pj’s
Buddy was psychedelic before they knew what psychedelic was he was playing one handed doing the splits playing behind his back and head (Pete Townsend was smashing instruments before Hendrix)

pretty cool when your hero pays homage to ya ;)
That's not an imitation of Mr. Jimi! That's Jimi's extension, fully original!
some buddy got it wrong ...Jimi imitated mr Guy !!
+TheBhannah DAMN RIGHT!
+TheBhannah Damn Right Hell Buddy Showed Jimi lol
Exactly this is what people don't is that buddy invented this style of playing with this hard bending fast licking
This is true. Hendrix even stated in an interview on some TV show that Buddy was his favorite guitarist.
That maybe so, but Jimi would've powered through that broken string.
There used to be some footage on UA-cam of Hendrix sitting and watching buddy. Buddy seemed pretty out of tune but was awesome
Get down with your bad self Buddy you can play Jimi all night you can play lots of people but we know it is you❤ Damn Right I got the blues from head to my shoes.
57 people have clearly never been experienced
Jawbone yea!
Jimi Hendrix 💜 🙏 was Jimi Hendrix 💜🙏. Randy Hanson best closest player I've ever heard ✌️
Buddy is the MAN.
Other way around. For sure. Long live Buddy!
Jimmy learned everything from Buddy Guy and T-Bone Walker, playing the guitar behind his head, with his feet, buddy did all that first
it Buddy Guy imitating Jimi Hendrix who was actually imitating Buddy Guy
Let`s put it that way, Buddy is a few stories above Jimi in the tower of song.
When I saw Buddy he also did Clapton, check him out when he comes to your town boys and girls
That guy got Mr. Guys string!!! madness
Awesome!☺
