BUDDY GUY "This Is The Beginning - The Artistic & USA Sessions 1958-1963" CD
★2020 remastered edition
Buddy Guy is a legendary bluesman who emerged as a young man in Chicago in the late 1950s alongside Magic Sam and Otis Rush, and is still active today at over 80 years old. This compilation features his earliest recordings!
Rolling Stone magazine's 23rd place in the 100 greatest guitarists of all time! Buddy Guy is the epitome of the blues guitarist who plays crazy and hysterically. This album is "everything about Buddy Guy before Chess Records," collecting the starting point of his guitar playing and his early days when his individuality was already fully revealed, his debut single in 1958, session broadcasts at the prestigious Cobra Studios, and even his insidious guitar work backing up up-and-coming singers such as Jesse Fortune.
