I'm sitting here with my GH-600 in my lap and wondering if I should've made the decision to get Buddy's guitar first. Probably better now that Gary's moved on from LTD's, but wait long enough and you'll get my money for a Buddy signature.

The last true bluesman of his generation.

This guy's 86! Wow, doing what you love keeps you young! How nice to see a guitar hero be so kind and wise!

Not just my Buddy, he’s my Guy! 🎸📻🎶

I love Buddy Guy! Playing on his stage is the highest blues honor in Chicago. Buddy is a great ambassador of the blues. Long live the master.

You're right so good

God bless this man. So humble and a marvelous entertainer and guitarist. His work with Junior Wells is outstanding and what he has contributed to keeping the blues tradition alive is priceless 💙

What a Wonderful Human Being !

i took a picture with him sept 2013 at his bar and was the greatest moment i ever had in my life..”damn right i got the blues” is my favorite of his

Man, Buddy looks great for 86. I saw him play the Philadelphia Blues Festival way back in the late 1980’s and he was a legend back then.

Buddy is a National Treasure!

Saw Buddy about 10 years ago at the Doheny Blues festival. He killed. Blew everybody away in his 70's. I love his playing and the fire in his heart! 💚🎸

Saw Buddy live this past November, after the show he was hanging out and giving out picks to people. I got to stand about 5 feet from him and while he looked me dead in my eyes, i hollered “Love you Buddy.” One of the highlights of my life. He’s truly so humble, most people would’ve just walked off stage after the last song. He changed a lot of people’s life just that one night, mine included.

Buddy for me is not just a great guitarist, he also change the genre and the way we play the guitar

Buddy let me strum his guitar at the Clyde! Priceless moment! I’ll never forget it and I’m blessed to have it recorded.

Buddy Guy is a National Treasure ❤

Buddy is one of the last of the great blues players. He played with Muddy, Howling Wolf and Willie Dixon in their prime and he is still doing it! Saw him in the 1990s with a young kid opening up named Joe Bonamassa.

Muddy, Buddy Guy, Howling Wolf and Willie Dixon timeless

A true gem of a man!

He’s the last of a great era of Blues guitarist’s, that changed the world of music.✨💎💎💎✨

Used to run into him at times at the open mic at Legends. He'd just be hanging out smiling and shaking hands players and patrons. Very cool dude.

So glad Eric Clapton introduced me to Buddy Guy way back in 1990 (his live gigs at the RAH). From a tiny little village in the UK have been listening and enjoying ever since. I was a little late to the party but I blame my age haha. I've made up for it since.

Buddy Guy is THE pinnacle!

I saw Buddy Guy live in the 80's, he was a legend then and still is.

As a young guitar player in Melbourne, born in the early 70's, Buddy changed my life. Thanks Buddy.

tears of happiness to see him still around us, what a legend indeed

What a beautiful man he is !!! a legend and one of the last blues pioneers who inspired so many great musicians !!!

I love Buddy....a true badass player and a real gentleman.......they dont make em like this anymore....

He was the last concert I went to before we went on lock down. Took my guitar playing son with me and we left just completely blown away by his show. He’s the GOAT 🐐

the goat influences by him jimi hendrix is like MJ lobe david thompson

I love Buddy Guy I share his birthday July 30th different year of course he's influenced so many musicians and is still playing well

Had the honor of seeing He and BB twice. Honestly the best moments Ill never forget . Great and Humble Gentlemen.

He is definitely a GOAT in Blues music.

That is a man after my heart. What a great guy.

I just saw him recently and he still sounds and plays incredibly!! he stood the whole time as well. age is just a number to this living legend.

Great Interview.

Huge Buddy Guy fan. Discovering his music is inspirational

Love you Buddy. There is nobody and will never be anyone like Buddy Guy.

saw this talented man last night and he was amazing!! Almost 88 and so talented and so humble!! ❤

God bless Buddy!!!

Buddy came to Chicago in 1957 the year I was born (!) And here he is still alive and kickin and playing the blues today. Amazing.

This man is one of the greatest ever!!

I have seen Buddy many times over the last 47+ years. He is not only one of the best blues players ever, he is an incredibly nice man. There is no one like him.

Just a simple thanks ! It’s been a pleasure to be of his time . 👍☮️

There has never been so much music as today. So many young are playing the Blues (or any other music from jazz to classical) that in the old days their were alot but not so many like now. There are so many new blues musicians these days that in the early days, you would have to have ten of each to equal the amount today. Im 64, and I just bought a Yamaha sv-200 electric violin from Sweetwater (of course, most of my equipment and instruments are from sweetwater!) , and I have never played violin before. Im getting good. I'm retired, so I play all day long. Thank you, Sweetwater, for having everything i need. I started playing guitar last year in April '23. I started playing keyboards in early 1990's. I have an awesome studio that most people couldn't have a personal professional studio in the old days. Im starting my own music company, and my first act I'm going to record is the great Blues artist Joe Cumbo from Buffalo NY area. He sings and plays harmonicas, and at 67, he is going to start a new career in music because I got my studio. Is 64 too old to have a career in music. No! Im retired, and Im going to use my new recording studio to help promote local musicians. I stink at playing, but i can make an awesome recording. Talking about my violin, I have to call Cameron at Sweetwater to send my some violin string!

He is the blues!

Huge hero of mine. Love this tribute to Buddy. Much deserved!

I was honoured to meet the great man in his club at the Chicago blues festival in 2010 and as a brit I had the best of times, thanks Chicago👍🏻

"You cant make me dislike you - dont even try..." - What an absolute legend...

Buddy is among the all time greats !! Completely blew me away when I attended his show !! 🤘🤘

I saw Buddy Guy perform live a couple of months ago, and was pleasantly surprised at how strong he still is. The man is a blues machine, a powerful vocalist, and a blues guitarist, par excellence.

He looks amazing. Buddy I will always love the blues. A little bit goes into everything I do. I went through a weird period when I didn't think it would be authentic for me to play with that feel. It's for everyone. It's because of this man's spirit. I don't think I've ever heard him play or sing a bad note and I've never heard him say anything that wasn't absolutely profound, funny, heartwarming. A great man. Thank you, Buddy! Keep playing those beautiful blues!

I was in Denver in the 90s. One year I got free tickets for ‘blues on the green’ from work. I show up at fiddlers green and it’s traffic opening for buddy opening for BB!!! Buddy jumped of the stage at least twice during the show and we had clouds with sprinkles coming in, he looks up at the sky and says you know, it feels like a rain and goes right into it! Priceless!

Thanks for the interview. It's great to see Buddy still alive and kickin'.

Saw Buddy Guy twice in my life and it affected me so much as a person and a guitar player. It was full of so much power. It would take awhile to describe how amazing and unreal it was.

He's the man! extremely talented, is awesome having the chance to hear him.

I love Buddy Guy! Great interview. The word legend is thrown around too much. He is a true legend. Gary Clark Jr. will keep the blues going! Plus, John Mayer is a great blues guitarist. 🎶🎸☮️

Seen him several times since the early 90’s and he’s always amazing!! He such an entertainer.

"Keep the blues alive! Yes I! Buddy Guy and Jr. Wells started me with the blues. 55 years and counting. Loving the Blues. Jr. Wells R.I.P. Buddy Guy's music will never die.

I love Buddy Guy and I've seen him in person. He is the man. I've been a blues lover for more than 50 years.

This is real beauty of the soul

Absolute legend and supreme showman. Watched Buddy play in Saskatoon, SK. He came into the crowd and I watched his hands dance across the frets 18" from my face with our knees touching. Buddy was laughing at the look on my face when he backed outta there!

Saw Buddy January of 2023 at Legends. Life changing experience! Absolutely great! Unbelievable showman at age 86. I will be back to Legends soon.

What a fantastic influential artist, so positive and humble. Thank you Buddy for everything and sweetwater for this very well presented interview.

A true gentleman and statesman of the 6 string. What a legend , thank you so much. Sean, struggling blues player😊

A true legend...one of the greatest of all-time.

He’s in amazing condition for being 86 He deserves ALL of his flowers 💐

Buddy Guy is MY HERO, STILL PLAYIN' THEM BLUES 'TIL THE DAY HE FINALLY DIES, MOST DEFINITELY YOUNG @ HEART....

Incredible man, a true living legend, one of the all time greats !

Amazing interview The best ...the one and only Mr Buddy Guy

Thank you for everything you’ve done for the blues Buddy Guy! Stay strong❤️🎸❤️ #keepthebluesalive

I’ll keep the blues alive Buddy! 🎸

The stories are as good as his music, & i think that makes both better understood. He is a wise man, great player.

Love that Guy!

Such a lovely humble person with a memory for all in blues music. I wish people in the world has a bit of his kindness and talent, the world would be better of.

Saw him with JB right before he turned 80, ABSOLUTELY AAMAZING!!!! Warm and just awesome. Love this cat.

One of the top 5 guitarist of all time

He’s a champion of a person I knew him some time ago As kind and great as he seems

Thank you Buddy

Seen buddy twice. Once with my nephew and once with my son. They thank me many times

Buddy Guy is a true legend and blues treasure. Thanks for this

i had the joy of seeing buddy guy play in the experience hendrix show in portland oregon several years back

The first I heard of Buddy Guy was when his album _Feels like Rain_ came out when I was in college. I've been a fan ever since.

I saw him at the Hollywood Bowl a few years back. Best concert I ever attended!

Met him once when I was up there at his club. Was there in the 90's for a marine trade show & stayed at the hotel next to Legends. Couldn't drive anywhere, so I just went there every night. After the 4th night in a row, they just waved the cover and said "Oh, you again, come on in".. lol Nice guy, and very kind even though I didn't know anything about blues at the time.. The ribs there are great btw.. lol Still have the shirt from that place some 30 years later.

So awesome... what a legend and a great interview. Love the stories!

Good to see Buddy telling stories. I haven't been able to hear too many Buddy stories on the internet.

The master at holding a note for 20 minutes straight, with style! 🎸

I love hearing all the old stories he has of himself and the other blues hero’s … 🍻

My God hes a national treasure, we are so lucky to have him, I ordered his guitar today and I'm so excited to have it in my collection. Love this man

Coolest guy in the world

Buddy Guy is the best blues guitar player. I have a black and white video, (in my collection somewhere) taped of him and Hendrix that he talks about in the interview with Mitch. The recording has some guitar licks on it that you can hear later on Hendrix’s Electric Ladyland LP. I look forward to seeing Buddy Guy preform at the New Orleans Jazz Fest almost every year.

Maaan...the guitar playing and singing on Buddy's Chess recordings are unparalleled. I play them over and over every day. Buddy is certainly one of the few alchemists.

I wish he would teach me to play😊😊😊

To be such a legend, such a player, such an artist, you gotta be an incredible human being, too. What a gentle soul. What a sweet temper. But when it comes the time, what a fierce guitarist, and what a superb singer, by the way, too... If only we could have Buddy with us for as long as 90 more years, please...

86…? Happy for you Buddy Guy. Still putting out the blues.

Down to earth, icon, a true legend

Love Buddy Guy. Seen him at Chesapeake Blues Festival.

Stevie Ray Vaughan + Buddy Guy playing together was/is such a treasure to be able to enjoy ANYTIME ever since, considering the unfortunate demise of Stevie!!

Buddy, I am sure you have entered the world of the legends you so admired. I am from Baton Rouge, too so I always knew your music. I loved the blues and rock so much I just had to hang with those other players you named at the local Honky Tonks. At 15 years I decided to become involved in music too for a living as a photographer of live shows. Just so you know I enjoyed knowing your brother Sam Guy.. ... Sure do hope you will be coming home to play before too long. ( I need an autograph to sell , LOL) Living the blues, loving the blues. Thank you so much!

God I LOVE This Guy pun intended lol

He should be wearing a crown. Blues royalty right there!

I absolutely love this man What a legend he is ❤
