I love Robert Cray; saw him live last year. But he got his start in the 1980s, and is therefore not an OG like BB King or Buddy Guy, who were around when blues transitioned from acoustic Mississippi Delta style to the electric Chicago style. No disrespect to Cray--dude's amazing.

We live here somewhat in a parallel universe since we have never met our idols, but the power of music knows no bounds. and I am grateful to fate that in my distant childhood I fell ill with this thing called the blues! with great love from Russia no matter what

He gave me a waive as to say sorry. I happened to be bringing home a new Martin guitar. Buddy saw it in the front seat and smiled….Glad to see your feeling better Mr. Guy.God Bless!

I am 54 and grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. I am very lucky to say that I have seen Buddy play at least 20 times at his previous location as well as many other venues. Never once was a bad show. One time his mic wasn't working and after the second song he yelled to the crowd, tonight will be all instrumentals and you come back next Sunday for free. He drank a glass of cognac between every song and played the shit out of his strat!! My favorite experience was when I saw him and Junior do an acoustic set at Legends, they recorded it and it is Live at Legends 1989. I am pretty sure Junior was a little too drunk that night, he was in the wrong key on one song and couldn't find the right harp, but they were awesome!! Buddy and Junior Play the Blues is one of the greatest albums ever recorded. Love you Buddy!!!

I am 62 from the south suburbs of Chicago. I had the privilege of being at Legends on the night Stevie Ray Vaughan visited the club back in 1985. The performance he and Buddy put on was truly exceptional, the best I have ever witnessed. They traded licks and seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves. I have had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Guy perform many times over the years, and from the first show I attended to the most recent one, he consistently delivers an outstanding performance to his audience.

Love this. “You can’t beat a Strat. You can beat it, you can scratch it, but you can’t stop it from playing.” A damn fine description. My Stratocaster is built like a tank. It flew twenty feet into the air because my friend threw it on accident when he swung it over his shoulder on my lawn. It landed headstock first, and only needed a neck tweak back straight, but was still in tune. Even though it was lawn, the landing would have snapped the headstock off other brands but not my Fender Strat.

I was blessed to see B.B. King and Buddy Guy play the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville during their 2007 tour. B.B. was singing and playing seated by then, and Mr. Buddy Guy was an absolute Gentleman who supported and respectfully carried the show that night. It was sad seeing B.B. like that, but it was still one of the most special concerts I’ve had the privilege of attending. Buddy Guy is the epitome of classy cool! If that doesn’t sum up the Blues, I don’t know what does. Long live the Blues! Fender deserves kudos for helping to keep the Blues alive by focusing on the young ones coming up like Mr. Ingram. This is the 70th Anniversary of the Stratocaster, and they have some amazing Strats on offer.
