Lunch at Buddy Guy's Legends; and buying vinyl in the Gift Shop

Start with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3arjxjGThY  Recorded live in 1974 at Montreux Jazz Festival.  Buddy Guy & Junior Wells Drinkin TNT 'n' SMOKIN' DYNAMITE LP on 180g Vinyl.  This is a new pressing of an old record.  Produced by Bill Wyman.  Here is who plays on it:  Buddy and Junior of course.  Plus Pinetop Perkins on piano.  Wyman on bass.  Terry Taylor on rhythm guitar.  And Dallas Taylor on drums.  I played it last night - what a great recording of a legendary performance.  I know now why this is one of just four vinyl albums for sale at Buddy's gift shop.  He wants you to only buy the best and he is sheer genius on this record.  Subtle, powerful, playful, and hurt.  He also tells the audience that when he is away from home on long tours, it's them that make him feel like he IS home.

Try this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXJ-YPKqguA  From the liner notes by Peter Shertser:  Bill was bakcing Muddy at Montreaux when Mud finished, Buddy and Junior were to go on but seemed unhappy with the back band provided.  Having played with Bill previously in the US on a Stones tour, they asked him (Bill), if he could assemble a rhythm section.  Wyman jumped at the chance, and the results have all the fire and spontaneity of a Chicago "Blue Monday" session.  Yes, I bought this record, new - right at Buddy Guy's Legends blue club on Chicago's near southside.  Walked there and back from my office for lunch with Mac, a good pal and blues afficienado.   During lunch we caught an accoustic blues set by Chicago's own Harmonica Hinds.  http://harmonicahinds.com/6.html
