Guy Buddy: Live - The Real Deal

This fine, atmospheric 1996 live album finds Buddy Guy backed by the Saturday Night Live Band, playing a nine-song set at his own ""Legends"" night club in Chicago, Illinois. This is Buddy Guy in his best Blues mood, no frills, just great guitar playing and soulful singing, a really strong performance by the sixty-year-old guitarist performing a seven-minute version of his classic Chess single ""My Time After A While"". Buddy Guy"'s playing is tight and thoroughly inspired, and he gets superb backing from former Chuck Berry-pianist Johnnie Johnson, whose solo on the T-Bone Walker-like ""I"'ve Got News For You"" is one of several instrumental highlights.
