This kid just got a diploma from a master ! NO university could give this kid what Buddy gave him. The respect of one of the top blues masters of all time !

And Buddy Guy said, "Without B.B. King there would be no Buddy Guy". Not only is he a GUITAR GOD, he's also a humble human being.

This kid's got potential to be one of the greatest guitarists ever, and he's in great hands playing with Buddy. That's what you call a natural, he really was born to play music.

Quinn, that was fantastic! You are going to be a force in the music world. And Buddy Guy, you are awesome! How many superstars would do something like that? What a wonderful thing to do for someone else. You are a great man Buddy. If you could only teach that to others.

After I get tired of all the bad crap going on in the world,and watching videos of death and destruction that is happening in our world today,I come back to this.It is my feel good moment of the day.Buddy Guy could easily dis this young guy out of professional jealousy,but he urges him to be the great musician he already is.Thanks for posting this.

I saw Buddy Guy live this month and Quinn opened for him! He's 14 now and he was absolutely amazing! Buddy sponsors him and he has some albums out. Quinn said listening to Buddy is what got him into the blues and Buddy discovered him when he was only 7! Just incredible. Keep it up!

I hear a lot of Buddy in this child's playing. You must admit, Buddy Guy is a sweet as hell guy and obviously wants to see the blues tradition continue. When I met BB King and we got tot talking, he was so upset at the fact that for the last 30 plus years, a majority of his audience are young white men and no appreciation from the black community for the blues. I am white and there were no racist undertones to his statement, just disappointment that young black kids listen to that shit they call rap. He said, "This is part of their heritage and they could give a shit and are uninterested." To me I found this very sad.

This earlier comment seems to come closest to illustrating just how special this little kid's talent is: "bluesborn 2 years ago As someone who has played guitar for over 40 years I have to say this kid is truly amazing.We are talking about an 8 year old child here.The guitar is a very demanding instrument to play for someone whose body is still developing and doesn't yet possess the physical ability to wield it with such facility.Not just pressing down,but pushing the strings up,AND hitting the proper pitch AND doing so with feeling.I'm always left wondering where that kind of rare ability comes from in the very young." Musical history right before our eyes.
