    Roy said he never wanted to be famous, he didn't even know why anyone would gunk he was great (a lot of humility) he played because he loved to play, and he played for the people that loved how he played. My favorite guitarist EVER!!

He hardly spoke but over the next hour or so I was 10 feet away from one of the greatest guitarists I've ever heard. I'm a player and have seen many/most of the "name" players and he's right up there He ended the set by thanking us and playing Hey Joe/Foxey Lady Never forgot the night and this humble man, Very sad to hear of his passing.

    I have listened to this over 5o times, but i am always amazed how it touches me. Of course, when anyone writes and sings a song about Jesus, it means they were inspirired by the Holy Spirit, to write and or sing it. When that happens and as you listen to it, the Holy Spirit touches you. That is one of the ways that God works, through HIS Holy Spirit. Roy has been dead for many years, but this music lives on, because it was inspired by God Himself. May you be blessed with wisdom, understanding and light, in Jesus name. From Mark S. in Toronto.

      Heaven Hi, I just keep writing to as many as I can when I am getting to have my Y-FY on, and it's not all that often, so it is when a brother or sister might say that the one most important things for every sister and brother to really realize is that our Heavenly Father has truly brought to us here in this country and on our Divine Creators' Holy Ground, at this time for all to take all you possibly can to pray to stay doing the True Healing act of Love for All Gods' male and female creatures to simply try and share to all that they are not to be bought or eating, and the more we can educate our Good Shepherds Honest to Goodness Truth to eventually bring more to see a definite evolution and a Real Healing from our Holy Fathers Merciful Forgiveness and His True Blessed Peaceful Solution for all brothers and sisters and to also come to understand that we were born into an evil corrupt system, so we need to also bring up something our hearts need to feel, and it's about the True data & stats of how many newborn deformities and diseases that never get brought to every brother and sisters full attention, and it seems like so much of what one who is now sincerely seeking and truly wanting our Holy Fathers Revelation can type their questions and be able to find out how so much of our histories of mankind's' stubborn egotist sickness and unjust brainwashing ways just seem to not have any better solution to be closer to the True Wisdom of what Blessing our Merciful and Forgiving Holy Father has for all those who have come to taken to doing an honest to our Divine Creator Gods Commandments. So we must also believe we have the Greatest of our Holy Fathers Gift of the Holy Spirit to go forth and freely to share all that what Christ Jesus ministered for all brothers and sisters of The Way, The Truth and Life, knowing He would be with us always, and we continue giving all Praise for His Glorious Gifts of The Spirit Amen.

    Roy often played in Pittsburgh toward the end of his life. My Brother and I had the great pleasure to see Roy play at the Syrian Mosque. I was in high school and just learning to play guitar. Now forty years later I too am able to play some of Roy's tunes. However, no one can match his sound ... Roy is a one of a kind.

    Two great guitar players own the early days of Rock 'N Roll... Roy Buchanan and James Burton. They had a tremendous influence on the greatest music ever... '50s R&R. Roy is gone, much too soon, but his legacy lives forever.

    He is by far my favorite guitarist.....Roy Clarke is close to his perfection. Roy Clarke can play ANYTHING he picks up...but Roy Buchanan is just in a class all his own. Whatever his demons were .....he was the perfect player. He had more talent in his two hands than just about every great guitarist that ever lived .combined. I like how Jeff Beck adopted his techniques and shows the world his touch of Roy Buchanan in a style maybe no one today even attempts to copy. So haunting so mournful..soulful Magic ✨✨✨✨. One guitarist I'll listen to until my time here ends. So glad I found this music.

    There's a version of The Messiah recorded not too long before his death. it's from his performance in Chicago at the Metro. It is a haunting version that in my opinion surpasses any I've ever heard. I have the audio recording of the show but alas, no video.

    I am reading an excellent book about Roy called Roy Buchanan American Axe. It is full of Accurate Info about Roys Music and his life.
    It is an entertaining read too.

    Still don't understand why many people insist to compare two guitarists just for the fact they have a guitar in their hands. So different rigs, style, mood, phraseology... By the way, if I'm not wrong, this song was written in 1971, Moore's one in 1978. I prefer Buchanan to Moor 'cause I find Buchanan a lot more instinctive and passionate.

    I can't believe that such an artist had himsef killed. If he only had lived through the '90s, he would had been considered equal to BBKing, Rory Gallagher and other globally known guitar heros.

    I've loved Roy's style of playing since I was really young and I worked as George Bensons personal assistant, years ago I kept hearing that Jimmy hendrix who I love was the greatest guitar player ever, well I decided, no one is, but geniuses like Jimmy, George, Roy, and many others, occupy a special place and level which is their exclusive club.
