David Letterman Buddy Guy on Muddy Waters

[@stephensuddick274]

Everybody talks about Buddy the guitar player. Can we just take a moment and acknowledge how great a blues singer this man is?

[@harrymills2770]

Made me want to fold up my tent, go home, and never sing again, he was so good.

As he mentions here, the great Otis Rush helped him before the great Muddy Waters did.

[@sarahhughes3459]

Otis Rush was a massive influence on everybody. Buddy,Eric clapton,Peter Green they all wanted to sing like Otis.You can hear him in they re vain attempts

I've been looking for the part when Buddy mention Muddy save his career for years, because I remember him saying that in a documentary and nobody believe me that happened

[@cpclary]

That’s amazing! Gives me goosebumps

[@possumwilliams2940]

What I wouldn't give to be able to spend a day with Buddy just talking about life 🤔👍😎 what a Guy !!😀

[@JerseyMiller]

I don't know what the hell Buddy was talking about here but it touched my heart

[@DavidSmith-ss1cg]

Buddy wanted to play, but nobody knew him. There was a contest at a popular nightclub, similar to an open mic night, and Muddy wanted Buddy to play, as he knew that Buddy could play - but Buddy was weak from hunger and was talking about going back to Louisiana. So Muddy made Buddy eat a salami sandwich - out in his car - before sending him in, to play. So, Buddy played and impressed everybody, and this not only helped Buddy get started, but established Muddy as a kind of godfather of the blues in Chicago. It's true, and plus, it's a great story. Buddy's playing inspired many of the crop of young white guitar players, especially English ones. Some American guys got lucky and learned from the Blues guys, but it was tough, and could be very dangerous. It's nice that you can learn it - and SEE much of it - on video. Enjoy the show.
