Living Blues (p.59) - "Nearly three decades later the always impressive Guy and his crack band of Chicago blues professionals continue to sound fresh and spontaneous."
Living Blues (1-2/96, p.89) - "...a fascinating document of a great blues artist responding to the standards and expectations of the audience that nurtured postwar Chicago blues for over 30 years."
Eric Clapton once called Buddy Guy "the greatest blues guitarist ever." Guy, along with contemporary Magic Sam, took the sounds of Chicago blues of the 1950s and ratcheted them up a notch, in the process creating a new form of controlled blues mayhem. Born in Louisiana, he moved to Chicago as a young man in 1957 and served an apprenticeship with Chicago blues king Muddy Waters while getting his own solo career underway. Guy's frequent collaborations with harmonica player Junior Wells are among his best work.
