    Incredibly versatile player. Going from Country, to Soul, To Jazz and all with just a Telecaster and all the while carving out his own techinque and tone.

      I saw Roy live in 1971 in NYC.. my friend and I snuck into the concert hall. We live a couple of blocks away in The village.... I remember he was appearing with a bunch of other bands..crazy horse and a couple other bands .. we had no idea who he was... But when he started playing the Messiah' I can tell you that everybody was literally hypnotized. one of the greatest guitar performances I've ever seen..

    If you got time for a movie their us a PBS documentary on Roy Buchanan. And it shows him sitting in with Merle haggard and other people but he shares the story of his life. He actually shared an apartment with Danny Gatton for a little while.

      Yeah. He was "interacting" with something that was sitting on what the amp was sitting on.....if that makes any sense.😉 I noticed it too and at first i thought he was turning himself or Roy down or up. After a closer look I thought maybe he was getting a new pick because maybe he dropped one.... The ashtray thing makes sense too, though

    • @Ian-bq7gp
      @Ian-bq7gp Рік тому

      Even Rory Gallagher never joined the Stones. They deserved to be lead guitarists and were too good even for playing with Keith. Im not utting down any of the Stones in any way, no doubt they are the most popular bles based band the worlds ever seen, Zeppelin were more rock based. Roy could shine playing any style as he felt what he was playing at the time deeply in his soul. There were great players like John Ma Claughlin who connected with other styles like indian classical music with tabla, violin, sitar for example with the Mahavishnu Orchestre and Shakti who was brilliant. John also played Jazz and blues but is different to Roy as is Jeff Beck but its like comparing Picasso with Michelangelo or Turner. Isnt it great seeing all the different colours and hearing all the different sounds. The great thing about these artists is that often they are pushing boundaries in their art looking for something new, unique, maybe spiritual in their sound just like Ginger Baker going to Nigeria to play with those great african drummers.

    Is it me or was roy and the other guitar player battling it out lol around like 18 mins where the duel ends. I feel like they were just trying to one up each other the whole time. I think roy wasn't really trying either bc he was just looking at him funny through the whole solo duet thing.

      @@amptron1776 did you not watch this and hear what the guy said about nils and roy before they started? There’s your reason why its in there, it has some significance and according to nils own words in the documentary about roy nils was personally invited to new york by roy for this performance.
      Direct quote from nils: “I was so nervous in Roy's presence, that once I started soloing, I never stopped, traded licks, or engaged Roy in a guitar duet of weaving lines. Certainly something I wish I had done but I was just too inexperienced and overwhelmed. At one point, with perhaps a disappointed but understanding grin, Roy started detuning a low string, creating a sound effect to cut through my guitar yammering! Oh well, maybe I'll get another go at it in Heaven someday. A giant thanks Roy, for sharing your stage, your gifts, and being my friend. Priceless"
