Roy Buchanan

[DLR2007]

I thought I'd make a thread about the late blues musician Roy Buchanan.

I first discovered him in 1978 in Seattle, when KISW played the title track of his album "You Are Not Alone" a lot.

I still have it on vinyl.

A VERY soulful player.
:cool:

I have a cassette; forgot which one though.

Laura Branigan?

Roy had a song called "My Babe" from the late 70's/early 80's that kicked ass

[Steve Savicki]

Just checked - "My Babe" was the name of the cassette/album. Haven't played it forever.

I don't remember hearing him on KISw, but as diverse as the station was back in those days (they would go from The Clash to Zeppelin to Ac/Dc to Supertramp and think nothing of it) I'm not surprised.

I got a 2 disc compilation of Roy Buchanan accidentally from Columbia House or one of those record club scam outfits in the early 1990's. I'd never heard of him at the time, but I was surprised to find that it was good music. Roy worked a lot with Charlie Daniels back before he started writing about Devils playing fiddles and jingoistic right wing warmonger anthems.

Dude, I actually carved a record press entirely out of marble 30 minutes prior to KISW playing the track, but unfortunately the direction went the wrong way...:(

But interestingly enough, there's a subliminal message on the backwards recording that says don't trust SoftCock69 (yes, that's what it says) because he's making it up as he goes along...

?????

What the fuck are you mumbling about, fool?
:confused:

A record press entirely out of marble?

You must be doing too much acid....
:D

:cool: I first discovered him in 2005, a little difference in time but when I first heard him play I also noticed he was a soulful player and that's what got me into his music.

Is that how your church found all the "satanic" backmacked messages on your heavy metal records?? ;)

ROY....a forgotten GIANT...the STONES wanted him before Ronnie Wood.....

such a tragic end.....

No justice in this world
