    I've been fortunate to see many blues legends live in concert, including Buddy Guy, B.B. King, John Lee Hooker, Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, Koko Taylor, Etta James, and Otis Rush. I regret missing Junior Wells though.

    My dad was a country man who loved the blues. Thanks for leaving me with this gift dad. Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, James Cotton, B B King, and so many more. The blues speaks to me via my heritage.

      I’m from Barcelona, so blues is not part of my heritage, but I just love Blues, as well as Soul and Jazz! I’ll never forget all the wonderful artists I had the privilege to attend to their concerts, Nina Simone, BBKing, Duke Ellington, Chick Corea, etc!

    This is truly amazing stuff. It should be required listening for any musician and any music lover. The range of feelings, the extraordinary dynamics, the total control, the intensity of the entire performance is just remarkable. I first saw Buddy Guy in 1967 and was astounded then. I remember that he had an outrageously long guitar cord--long enough to let him leave the stage, go up the aisle, and outside into the lobby while he was playing an absolutely blistering solo. My young mind was transformed that day. And he's even better today than he was then. Truly a player for the ages.

      Funny thing it's actually Buddy Guy that's helping these younger artists find their voice. Buddy is an amazing person who I met in person. He cares about the future. Ingram often accompanies him these days.
