Remember watching a three part series on the BBC in the 1980's about the best guitarists you've never heard of. Albert Collins was one, Roy Buchanan another and I forget the third. I remember being blown away by Roy and when I saw When the Guitar Plays the Blues in a second hand store a few years later I snapped it up. It has always been a favourite of mine. More recently added his first 2 albums - love the 2nd album, but disappointed with the first. Surprised to see it's his highest ranked on here, so maybe it will grow on me.

Jeff Beck dedicated his version of "Cause We've Ended As Lovers" from Blow by Blow (1975) to Roy Buchanan. Buchanan is undervalued and the most forgotten great guitarist of all time! It looks like this site, so generally a good taste of the members exhibit, have also lost sight of him.
MVD Entertainment, who have just released Live At Rockpalast, a welcome document of a February 1985 appearance on the popular German television show Rockpalast, Buchanan's 60-minute performance has been released on both CD and DVD. Buchanan's set that night included a number of original tunes - audience favorites like "Night Train" and "Linda Lou" - as well as choice covers of Jimi Hendrix ("Foxy Lady"), Booker T & the MG's ("Green Onions"), and surf-guitar legends the Ventures ("Walk, Don't Run").
