For people that already had > > > this tape, you might want to pick this up because I spent a lot of > > > time mastering it. There were huge level swings during this tape, so > > > much so that there were many passages that were nearly silent followed > > > > by others that blew the speakers out. I mastered this so as to > > > smoothe the wild swings, but to preserve the feel of Buddy's > > > performance. As everyone knows, it's the volume changes that > > > can add the emotion to the performance, so I didn't want to > > > destroy that, but I did want to make the recording more listenable > > > overall than it was before. > > > > > > I don't want to sound negative about Buddy, because I love his music, > > > but if you're like me, your opinion is that Buddy's shows of late lack > > > > the originality and fire that we all know that Buddy has. That 'play > > > the blues so funky you can smell it' line, along with the samples of > > > Hendrix, Clapton, SRV, etc. just got very old for me the 5th show I > > > saw Buddy. I wondered why he didn't play his ass off like the > > > blues-man that he is. Anyway, you'll find this recording satisfies > > > your thirst for the REAL Buddy Guy. Even though he did bring that same > > > > shit out even back then, his playing in the small blues club scene is > > > really where Buddy is Buddy. I just wish that he'd play like this > > > for all of his shows. I'd go back and start seeing him. Instead > > > he just rehashes the same old shtick over and over and over, while > > > maybe unveiling 2 or 3 songs off his latest album. It's very boring > > > and diappointing after you've spent $20 for the > > > 10th time hoping to see something new and original from someone > > > that you just KNOW has the God given ability to knock the living > > > socks off everyone whenever he touches a guitar > > > or comes within miles of a microphone. I hope this doesn't make > > > anyone mad...just my opinion.
