    Green Onions - one of those tunes which will still be popular in a 100 years' time, and beyond. Like Kevin Kohlhase's comment - I've never forgotten buying 'Loading Zone' as an LP and wearing this track out because I lifted the stylus off so many times and replaced it to play the track again that I ended up with clicks before it started. A brilliant guitarist. So sad the way he died.

      He was a country boy who was basically what hendrix was on a strat on a tele. He made it talk. Pulled tones and colours out of it. Even it didnt know it could do.
      His techniques were light years ahead of his contemporaries. Due to his shy introspective nature. And not really caring for fame and fortune. He wasnt marketable.
      So was consigned to gigging around the states like a journeyman. When he was essentially one of the top 5 guitarists to ever live.
      Very bizarre when you think about it. Very bizarre indeed.

      @alexgasiewski4970 10 місяців тому +1

      Roy spoke well in interviews, articulite, but his playing said the other parts of him, the growling snarls, the taking of the guitar almost apart by playing until at times it seamed as if there wasn't enough to fully get all of what he felt with words after playing everything, the strings behind the nut, everything and yet it all somehow was music. We're not all great singers, etc, but that was Roy, especially towards the end. When he was signed to Alligator I remember to this day when he played a couple songs on one of the sampler's which show cased something from up coming new and others that were already veterans like Roy and other's. When Roy's song came on, it to me scared me because it's sailed like he finally found the trip that was completed from beginning to end, then shortly after he was dead, in a jail cell. Roy I wish for you lasting peace. Alex

      Hendrix was an innovator. There are better technical players than Hendrix ever was. But Hendrix had soul and IMAGINATION.
      Ive seen countless players who can go all over the fretboard so fast it makes you DIZZY.
      NOW ASK THEM TO WRITE A SONG THAT NO ONE WILL EVER FORGET. And theyll look at you with a blank stare. Thats the difference between HENDRIX, PAGE, and all the ones we call guitar gods. And a 100 thousand technically briliant players.
      How many players would trade their fast playing for even TWO of Keith Richards legendary RIFFS??????
      Thats what its ALL ABOUT. Imagination trumps technical ability EVERY TIME.

    No BS electronic add-ons, just the magic and genius of Roy's fingers torturing the strings until they cry. I've been listening to him since I was 10 in 1976. Luckily turned on to him by my old brother's college roommate. They both drank Jack Daniels with Roy after one show until all of them almost passed out. It was the 70's - being PC didn't exist then. I saw Roy live twice in small venues in Pittsburgh, and I still have a signed T-shirt from one show. He's THE guitar God - f'ing period!

    I agree w/many that he was one of the best ever. His albums don't do him a justice as seeing him LIVE. The unbelievable things he could do with a tele
    making it cry like a pedal steel to just beatin' the hell out of it, to doing enviable runs with just his left hand. Jeff Beck says Roy is the best ever. period. That's huge.

He was not my favorite blues guitarist but, Roy by all means had his own style, he was into making all those sounds and, he could run when he wanted to. So sad he ended up how he did. I have about 2 or 3 of his albums. Bless his heart.
