Feiten, totally underrated, no one like him, an original.
I saw him with Butterfield Blues Band on labor day weekend 1968 at the Cafe Au Go Go N.Y.C. They played there the entire week. He was 19 or so. Terrific!
Wonderful! Did he play his Sunburst 345 into a Pro Reverb then?
No sir
I could listen Buzz Feiten all day.
me too...one of my favorites ever!
Me gusta su m'usica, son excelentes profesionales!
Haha, me too ❤❤
Best guitarist I never heard of. I just accidentally found his Woodstock performance. Jeezum, he is as good as it gets, Steve Morse class. And such a nice guy on top. I'm gonna look up everything he ever did. What a treat.
" just accidentally found his Woodstock performance." likewise
Buzz never fails to produce the goods! Loved his style for a lifetime and watching it evolve. Rock on man! Terrific band.
Just as much as the music is the time Buzz spends.....talking and sharing..about the music experience ....what a player ....he knocks me out .....his sense of time...is so good!
absolutely magnificent
Followed Buzz since I first heard him in 1968 on Butterfield's Keep On Moving and with the same band same year at the Fillmore in San Francisco. Always among my top favorites. But he never plays live anymore. Went to New York with a girlfriend in 2016 to see him at the Cutting Room. But he was a no show. I wish he played in LA where he lives. That's an easy throw from Northern California. Everything he plays is wonderful.
I always liked Mr. Feiten's guitar work in the albums of Stuart Hamm. 🎸 🔥
Let's get funky. Makes you Wana move and feel the groove.🥳
never thought he was the guitarist in weckl's synergy,then I discovered and it made sense,all his musical taste and unique expression,love his playing
Beautiful work Buzz does, soulful, funky, groove, tasteful. With his friends in craft around making music, He has been an influence, since we were both young, on my playing. wish him lots more to create more beauty in the world, Thank you Buzz. Bill J
Great players.....for sure......I met Brandon Fields when he was with Dave Weckl at a club in Chicago .... on break just talking about times and people in the music biz.....Brandon tells me he remember playing on a session with my cousin Jody Fisher... that was cool....
Just watched footage of Buzzy at Woodstock with the Butterfield Blues band. Pretty cool to see that juxtaposed with his more recent work here.
It is always great and inspiring to hear musicians who go 100% into their music. Instrumental music like this keeps me going. Feiten is inspiring to me because he was great when very young ... Rascals and Full Moon -- but now listen to him go! every note is just what it needs to be! The first cut has really got me psyched up.
@Charlzz95 g Yes ,also on Island of Real. Don't forget ,before that He played w/ and on Stevie's records..
He is so sweet and true when he talks about tecniques... just use it to express your feelings...🙂
Where has this been hiding? Another treasure from MI.
Thanx so much for posting these "Throwback" videos, guys .
Very clear notes perfect arrangement
Wow! Thnx Buzz for the post. Hope and pray your getting stronger every day!
What a great musician and man!
Hats off to Buzz Feiten, everyone is always on about Carlton, Ford, etc...great players of course but Buzz is absolutely great and underrated with his own very unique sound
Robben would agree with you wholeheartedly i dare say on his behalf, because I have heard him mention how he admires his playing so much. after 6 years I wonder if u will see this...
Awesome music, have really enjoyed Buzz's guitar since I first caught the Full Moon stuff of the early 70's.
Just discovered this. What a treat. Buzzy is as good as it gets...otherwise it just gets different. His soulful melodic passionate playing just hits me straight in the gut. There's a lot of players that are "technically" incredible but they don't hit me like this. Buzzy has it all. Taste, phrasing, playfulness, melodic intricacy, his own unique style, soul, all of it. Thank you Buzz for being one of my biggest influences and one who has overcome demons to continue to share his incredible creativity to the world. I'm simply in awe of you brother. Much love to you always JP
You hit the nail square on the head Jeff.Ive love his playing since his Butterfield days I still play my Full Moon cd's in my car along with Rascals "Isle of Real" and Larson/Feiten CD's Saw him with Full Moon and with Riki Lee Jones and this band at Bottom Line I used to come see you play every Sunday nite at "Preachers" in the Village when you were playing with Joe Manoti .One night I brought Dave Spinoza to see you and I ran into you in Cali when you were playing with Marc Cohen and you sat in with Crosby Stills & Nash Hope your well brother Always loved your playing too ..James Farrell
@@taukhouse44 Hey James! Thanks for the note and sharing the fond memories! Big fan of Spinoza too!! Hope you are happy and healthy my friend!
Buzz is a genius
This is so good! Very cool compositions played by amazing musicians=awesome experience. Thanks for the post. I've been a huge Buzzy fan since my teen years. He's a special player.
No Instrument is louder than the other.,that spells experience and the crew knows one another pretty well
Two friends from the same era, brilliant players, instantly recognizable, totally unique: Danny Weis and Buzzy Feiten. First time Branden Fields was with Dave Weckyl...Dang ! Great band !
Davis Ramey was my 1st jazz gtr teacher, & he also inspired me for years. Great player & great teacher. Yes I still love his lesson material when I go back thru my studies- classic stuff from a wonderful guitarist
Buzz was always one of my favorite players , but not as well known as his tasty playing deserves. Thank you Buzz!
Thanks for sharing!!
The Q&A part of this video is very inspirational. The advice on professionalism, improvisation, etc. is really valuable
This is one of my favourit guitarplayer , enjoy, it does´nt get any better then this.
Some additional remarks on Buzz' explanations on the BZ tuning system.
- the first fret sharp phenomenon relates to the mathematical formular ONLY applying to an ideal string. In the real world, strings have thickness, are build out of specific material, all this influencing their stiffness, how the overtone series of a string develops (BTW thats the reason, why extralong scale basses sound better: the string thickness to fretboard length ratio gets better, or the string gets thinner in relation to the fretboard length, which enables better overtones).
- piano tuning: please keep in mind, that a piano string only has to produces exactly one (1) pitch. Which allows for perfect tuning. Whereas a guitar sting in conjunction with the fretboardplacement has to produce up to 24 different pitches. Much more complexity to the task.
Nice stuff... very nice! I like this a lot.
Yeah, I remember him from Butterfield too. I saw him with them in Chicago, i think at the Auditorium. I do remember he used a blue telecaster. His solo on "keep on Movin" ......"Where did my Baby Go" still rings in my head, I still have that on Vinyl.....and he was just a kid. Great player, unique in a field where that is not an easy thing to be.
Buzzy’s chord voicings are the best
Well, hell…that was a amazing! It makes more sense that a great guitarist would figure out a better way to intonate a guitar than an inventor plays guitar.
Bravo! Great set!
One of greatest videos I have ever seen on You Tube.....very special!
superb guitar and fine band. what a Rascal!
Yeah .... so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad too see you out from the vault. It has been to long since I have seen you perform. I love these all tunes. Awesome stuff!
Great funky stuff with Buzz Feiten Band !
I was watching "No Direction Home" and I paused it when Dylan laughed at the mention of Mike Bloomfield . So i checked him out, found Paul Butterfield and ended up with this absolute master guitarist....all in the space of about 15 minutes. I still have Dylan paused and this guy is the best guitarist I've heard in a long time. I've been listening to a lot of Rory Gallagher this weekend so maybe Its just serendipity ...
I just discovered Buzz this morning. CZcams showed me a Paul Butterfield blues band at Woodstock video. I watched it, and a young kid was ripping up some blues guitar. A comment on the video said his name was Buzzy Feiten. I searched CZcams wondering what happened to him, and came up with this. I love CZcams just because of this. I can see bands I never ever would have seen, playing live all over the world from the 50s until today.
for some reason his guitar sounds more in tune than other guitarist's guitars do
Shut up, haha. You know what hes famous for. Dont try to play Mr. Miracle Ears haha
Buzz explains his tuning system in the Q&A part of this video
🤫🤣
You guys sound awesome by the way....
WOW WOW WOW ! THIS GUITARIST IS A PURE GENIUS ! BRANDON FIELDS AWESOME !
Bass player is superb ! Groove Master indeed !
wow...
Buzz, Robben Ford, Mike Miller.......L.A. Fusion Guitar masters!!!
WOW.
Look up Michael Thompson another from LA, one of the all time greats who did some gigs with Buzz
One of my favorites. 😎🤓
In the past few months I've seen two great bands and performances at M.I. by two great guitar players. Danny Weis with Funk Attack and now Buzzy Feiten
The ferocious sting of Buzzy's guitar is legendary. Whether playing with Paul Butterfield, the Rascals, Full Moon or Dave Weckl, B's fiercely funky attack never fails to thrill. How lucky that when god invented the electric guitar he made sure to put one in B's hands, because that's what prayer is meant to sound like.
Listen to his song 'A Simple Prayer' ... he debuted it with Weckl and also played it on an album he did with Richard Pelkoff.
Awesome
check out Jungle Walk by the Rascals!
top fucking notch
Thanks for this MI! Buzz and the guys are amazing! Keep those vids coming.. anything with Vinnie Colaiuta?
His guiter seems more eloquent than most
Great Stuff !
I think Buzzy was only seventeen when he played with the great Paul Butterfield. Buzzy is a very fine guitarist he also invented the auto tune on many guitars.
When was this performance at MI?
Buzz Feiten could really play always so tasty...

The Weckl with the pestle has the pellet with the poison. The chalice from the palace has the brew that is true.
A Face in the Crowd good Court Jester reference
i´d like to hear this stuff with dave weckl behind the kit, i would have been astounding
I never knew he sang!
'Who Will Be The Fool Tonight' Larsen/Feiten Band. That's the first song I heard Buzz sing. He's got an excellent singing voice.
I tend to agree
Anybody know the playlist? I'd love to know the names of these gems, as I've sadly only recently discovered him.
Buzzy Feiten Played With Jimi Hendrix Back in the Day. I Wonder What He Learned From Him and His Playing. He is on A DVD That is Getting Hard to Find Called Paul Butterfield Live in Rockpalast Germany Blues Legends Vol. 2 Try Amazon. He Smokes on Guitar and is Backed By Another Great Guitar Player Peter Atanasoff. you Can Find it on Amazon Maybe or Watch it on CZcams if it's There. it is Getting Hard to Find. But This Guy is Not Mentioned in the Music, World Much or Not A Lot of People Know Who He is. I Think He is Underrated. What you See in the Video is Really Great Playing By 2. Great Guitar Players Alike...
good groove, thank you
In. The. Pocket.
Was Buzz sick or just some sandwich's? Surprisingly good tone from his Tele.
Yep.
the "Buzz Feiten Tuning System" in action - google it yalls.
I have a guitar with the Buzz Feiten Tuning System. Anyone ever heard of that?
Strange how tuning of the sitar was before pytigras
Wow, so nice to hear, and WHAT is that guitar he is playing? Does anyone know?? Is it one of his?
Fantastic. Where can I get a CD of this stuff?
I really liked Buzzy's playing with Paul Butterfield. Is there no more market for blues at all? Of course we all move on.
Buzz played with Neil Larsen on my LP's. Check them out
En gudabenådad gitarrist, fantastiska medmusiker, bättre än så här blir det inte.
48:00 Solo
Who's at the keys?

Once upon a time there was the Average White Band. Hummmmmmm 40 years ago. Me thinks!
Never saw Brandon before thought he was black...
He also played with Los Lobotomys. 👍❤
That Drummer needs to Mic his set...can't hear any Bass nor drums for that matter.
How can all these musical students sit as a musical audience without moving there heads or bodies when listening to funk like this? It seems as an odd and much to indifferent response to this magic performance. Maybe they are much to much in there heads, and will end up as doctor or lawyers, and not musicians? Maybe they dont appreciate magic music at all? Sorry but I just have to ask.
I know right?
Too busy being too cool and jaded
I think they were being respectful and as students they were in learning mode. Just my opinion
Leaning mode? I figure you wanted to write learning mode? Anyway- I hope you are right, but I am just not really that convinced.
ha - yea meant to say "learning". I fixed it. So yea I think most students are on the level and are just trying to analyze what's going on but I willingly concede that there were probably a few "above it all" types in the crowd.
This Buzz guy, he has good tunes….. get it? No?
Ok I’ll let myself out.
Este bajista no m gusta e muy simple no tiene emocion y no se oye en la grabaCion baila mucho y toca poco
i cant hear the organ nor the sax, thanks sound guy, you totally fucked up
I do not like jazz or whatever they play. Same song back to back. Nothing pretty.
