ROY BUCHANAN Ramon's Blues

ALBUM: GUITAR ON FIRE

[@user-mw6re2wu8n]

One of my greatest pleasures. Standing in front of Roy playin in a tiny bar in capitola ca.

[@thecin8443]

When I was 16, my boyfriend (a Roy fan) took me to see Roy as my first concert. Small club -- the Starwood in L.A., summer of 1978. We stood right up front, pressed against the stage. At one point, Roy lit up a cigarette at the beginning of a song and slid it between the strings and the frets of his guitar. He took a drag right before his solo, then handed the cig to the guy standing next to us, who was thrilled to death. His bass player was great, too. The way he moved as he played, we found ourselves watching him much of the time. I have a sneaking suspicion it might have been Gus Thornton. Can anyone out there confirm that? (Thornton was the bass player behind Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert King during their "In Session" show, and the moment I saw that, I was sure he was the same guy.) What a great night that was.

This is the magnificent,awesome,fantastic, unique, great Roy. R.I.P. Roy.😥🤗

[@scottmoyer1357]

Roy did it as naturally as anyone could ever play....and always with a vengeance. Had the good fortune of playing with him on drums in 1988 on his final California tour.

[@jamesgreen4522]

He does things that everyone has to have a pedal for now.

[@becky4193]

I was reading how they discovered one of his pick-ups was basically half fried and that's what gave him alot of his tone, and made his 53 tele play and sound different than any other blackguard out there

[@lukejames769]

Correction. No pedal will do what this man accomplished.

[@lukejames769]

Soul don’t come out of a pedal

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

@@lukejames769 I agree. When I first heard Roy's amazingly playing on 'Five String Blues' I thought that I was listening to the most soulful and expressive use of a Wah pedal ever until I was blown away to find that Roy had been manipulating the tone control on his Tele instead of having any need for a pedal !

[@pauldecastro8921]

was blessed gto see roy and danny gatton, another master of the guitar, in DC WAY BACK in 78 or 79i, both never got the recognition they deserved, SAD....

The telecaster master. Saw the man play in 86. Wow is all I can say.

[@Suggo1]

I saw him in "63" in a little dive club in Jersey ! Playing a Tele, with a Fender Baseman turned backwards, wide open, with pin holes in the speakers ! What a sound way back then ! !!

[@a.ritchie1525]

Lucky you! I would have loved to see him play.

[@geraldfitzpatrick9123]

Wonderful story Robert. I bought the Green Onions album during the late 1970's and I have it still today. I have a copy of it also on CD. Amazing music. When I brought the album home all those years ago my Father loved it. Today i'm 61, but my Father is now in heaven watching Roy Buchanan playing Live!

I've seen Roy do things on that old Tele that no one else could do. On a Rock Concert tv show about 1974 he played a string trio by muting the strings past the neck in such as way that he played three melodies at once! The control the man had was super-human.

Well, I see I was here one year ago. Roy was so great. Sad. Also sad that I had to friend that was as good; maybe better! But he was an alcoholic . He claims to have stopped drinking, but nevertheless drunk or sober not decent human being. So sad. I tried to make contact , olive branch and all that. ,to no avail…

I like roys work as well but jesus christ the guy had no songs, the only reason roy is somewhat well known is because of guys like clapton and beck singing his praises and because of music publications and that pbs documentary
