Too young to go Prison,Too much Trouble to go home,Too violent to be welcome anywhere,My cousin who i couldn't stand was my lawyer convinced the court to let me stay on his farm , Caravan in the corner had the basics little cassette player one tape in it,Roys blues got me through. Every lyric,note,screech and,Slide Etched in my soul .Thanks ROY!!!and thanks cousin!!!
I would give everything I ever known just to spend a day in the 70s-80s, go out to a bar, and see this man. So many others as well. I could almost make myself cry at the thought of it, but I am equally grateful to live in a time where I can listen to the best recording of a song at my very whim. RIP Roy.
Classic. I was so fortunate to see him live at the Cabooze in Minneapolis. It was so packed I had to climb up on the speaker stacks to watch the show. Phenomenal ❤
I met Roy at 12 yrs old backstage b 4 the show started. he was relaxing in a chair all by himself. Noome else but him. my 9 year old brother and his friend. no other people showed up at the place yet. we said hi. he with a smile said hello back. we asked if he was Roy .yes he kindly said you playing tonite right? yes Roy said. is that ur guitar Roy? yes. you wanna see it? ok He showed with pleasure to us. we daiid thanks and ok. well b in the crowd thanks Roy. Sure guys. So friendly he was. the other show he lut brother me and father backstage after show take a picture with him his arms stretched out around us all. what a beautiful person. true musician. incredible guitarist. and soul blues player here is one thing. I listened 2 sets of all his albums he recorded. Interesting he is that kind of player but he is the only player that I sense the word His playing is down right Spiritual! ( u dont hear that too much) R.I.P Roy
l had the pleasure of seeing Roy two times at a small bar in Cambridge, MA called Jonathan Swift's. Great setting, greatest guitar player I have ever seen! Miss that place!
I just love the way Roy hugged his guitar like a baby.He was truly Legendary!! I met a man who lived outside Washington D.C. and saw Roy often performing at a small bar quite a few times near there.No one played like Roy did and never will !!
I saw him at my Fathers Place a small club in Long Island a number of times. He blew the room away except for the 3rd time that I saw him there. He was so drunk that he only played a couple of songs, fell off the chair and passed out. There was a riot when refunds were denied. People were lighting furniture on fire and trashing the place. We got out fast. Crazy night.

Roy Buchanan was indeed a remarkable guitarist. His passionate performances continue to influence many people to this day. The 1986 concert in Japan is an unforgettable memory for many fans, and the tragedy that followed shocked many. It’s truly wonderful that platforms like TH-cam can spread his performances and bring his music to a new generation of fans. The guitar play of Roy Buchanan, respected by great musicians like Jeff Beck, will continue to be loved and his legacy carried forward. Listening to performances filled with Buchanan’s soul, such as “Down by the River,” reminds us of the power of music. It is my hope that his music will continue to be discovered and resonate with many more people.
Wow time flys been jamming roy since 1974 my oldest brother turned me on to roy. Just love picking a song an showing off my excellent choice of music an let someone that needs a lil help being cool listen to the master lol just loving my life with Roy's talent be cool keep it reall
Absolutely one of the greatest guitar player's ever! Saw him once in small bar in 70's. Better than I ever thought at "Jonathan Swifter Cambridge, MA. My home town!
Wow... I had the pleasure in the late 80s of hearing this and more live, in a small blues venue in NZ. Roy, drummer and an amazing base player/vocalist. He passed on soon after.
WOW , Y was There ' ? ? ( Roy B, came once time to Switzerland , Kaufleutensaal ; Zürich ) , And I was in the Rekrutenschule = Armee , to bad , to , bad , too bad , WE SEND AN M U S I C GURU , to the Concert , MR Livens ;;;; he say , " Yes Yes , , , , but the play Hardrock " ....,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I just little s m i l e .
he played ... auckland town hall about 86/7 ... think was a sunday night ... was in my early 20s ... amazing night ... didnt think he playedelse where in NZ .. always been plugged into scene here .. used do security ... seen SRV jam at mainstreet after one his concerts .. think it might be on utube ... played an epitone that night ... was outside smoking a joint when he pulled up .. had just seen him play at logan cambell centre earlier that night ... so saw him 3times , twice in 1night ..
a roadie of Pat Traverse turned me on to Roy a couple years ago,been a huge fan ever since and changed my whole perspective on what people think of to be the greatest guitar players,still love my Hendrix Page Gilmore,but Roy Buchanan puts goosebumps on the goosebumps,truely one of the greatest.shame on Rolling stone for not having Roy on the list
Saw Roy in Small Chicago Club 3 times with my younger brother. He played this whole album and other of his famous songs.He was amazing. The sound he got out of that Tele and a Fender twin 12. This was the only time he used a pedal, a Wah on a couple of songs. He played effortlessly. Incredible! Miss you Roy -forever.
This man was something altogether the fuck else. & kudos to his band too: the female back-up vocals, the drummer, base...the way they built that reggae back-beat w/ Roy's screamin' blues-rock guitar up front. Fucking ingenious. &-in case U didn't know-the late, great Roy Buchanan died a very sketchy, suspicious death in police custody....
Dit is een nummer dat ik nooit vergeet. Ik heb deze LP in de kast staan en zelfs op CD. Een blijver en nooit weg te denken muziek. Jammer dat Roy niet meer leeft.
One of the most spectacular solos, fascinating to watch. I once read that Roy's fingers on the fret board were akin to spiders dancing on a hot-plate, (something like that) the man was astonishing. You'll never convince me that Roy suicided either. RIP Roy.
Donald Elley .........I read there was a long-running feud between Roy and certain cops but it’s always hard to know what’s accurate and what’s “gossip”. That said, I’m in total agreement with you - I simply can’t believe that a “God-fearing” man such as Roy would ever contemplate such a thing and there aren’t a whole lot of alternate explanations.
I was picked up by cops once while I was drunk and bacame a crazed wild man and said thing to the cops I couldn't even believe the next day. It was because I was heavily under the influence and really felt I was being taken against my will for no reason at all so I felt justified in what I said at the time. I wouldnt have guess I would have done this, but I'm guessing Roy did the same and they tried to choke him out and suffocated him.
@@donaldelley2802 they have to look at themselves in the mirror each day .... we all know what they can be like ... heavy handed pricks ... roy was just another drunk probably .... hope their lives are misriable ..... they took happiness away from earth and us ... his fans ...
You’re right. But as @old grannywheels states below: A drunk can be having an “out of body” experience and have no clue that they are being a most obnoxious person. I strongly feel that those Virginia police took unjust actions to quiet him down.
Saw Roy at then named "Salisbury State University" 1st time 40+ years ago. I was doing LSD-25 from M.I.T. The entire concert tears flowed down my face, thought it was the acid. About a year later he played there again so I went totally straight and the same thing happened, tears flowed and I can only say it was Roy's playing reaching my soul that did it. Not much facial expression while he played, and they were small. Wonder if it was recorded?
My man I appreciate and enjoy your description for the very first time I heard Roy Buchanan by my God Brothers introduced me to Roy Buchanan. I think I was like 12yrs his playing changes YOU. Mind you that's with the Telecaster no pedal no Distortion just his hands and the instrument it's not electronic it's spiritual, PERIOD ✊🏿🎸👏
His Tone on the Telecaster was impeccable. I saw him at the Keystone in Palo Alto with about forty people. He was drinking pitchers of Heinekin, yet was able to turn his pain into absolute brilliance. It was a fucking Religious experience, nobody I ever saw live even came close except maybe Johnny Winter..
My, a monster version! Roy really takes off towards the end. Great also, how exactly an *acoustic* guitar is placed on top of the build-up and crescendo from c. 8:06 into the song. Clever!
If there was ever an alternate reality that I could time travel to, it would be to attend a concert, where Roy Buchanan and Jimi Hendrix were performing together! BTW it would have Robert Johnson opening the show -just to warm up the crowd a little! :)
mtbluzman As all three guitarists could sing, I think I'd leave it over to them. However, if they let me suggest some vocalists, I'd choose Janis Joplin and Amy Winehouse! I'm gonna stick my neck out here, and say that that'd be: one frikkin' awesome show!! :)
Hmm... Clapton, Bruce, and Baker, were such a powerful tight trio in the supergroup Cream: I'd be reluctant to splinter them up. The billing line-up for this proposed concert, is now growing to resemble that for The Last Waltz by The Band! :)
We lived next to a River, the older cousins pat and hinemoa were further down stream. during summer you could hear pats sounds Roy Buchanan,Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore just a few Irish stars in a Galaxy Of stars
love the man hate to see him leave this so early i heard down by the river the 1 st time on beaker street out of conway arkansas witch is no longer on the air waves but beaker street the web site is still there check it out they played killer old rock
you haven't lived until you've heard buddy miles version, bruce swedein did the engineering, Roy can certainly play, but bruce delivers the whole package, and nobody sings as rhythmically in tune as buddy.

Roy is known for his love of the '53 Telecaster (so much so that when travelling by air, he often paid for an extra seat so it wouldn't have to be carried as baggage), but for part of his career, he played a Les Paul. In the insert with his recording 'Hot wires' he is shown with the LP he played. There's a bit more information in Roy's excellent biography by Phil Carson.
I´ll like to read his biography. Roy really was a blues man. Lived like one and died like one. Whta is extremely unfair to his talent. Well, is part of the history of music now. And he is imortallized because of his music. Thank you Alan.
picolodaemao3 I bought my copy via Amazon uk. Look for 'Roy Buchanan: American Axe [Paperback]' ... Backbeat Books (6 Sep 2001) ISBN-10: 0879306394 ISBN-13: 978-0879306397 Lots of insights into his early life and the many struggles he had with fame, drugs and an ever-increasing family. Later parts of the book do tend to slip into detailed accounts of particular gigs, but the bulk of the book really does help you try to understand Roy's Blues. Although his wife Judy appears again and again in the body of the book, there's a very interesting reference to her in Carson's introduction. I'll leave you to spot that. Hope you find the book and enjoy it. It's certainly sent me back to listen with new ears to my large collection of Roy's recordings.

Interesting he is that kind of player but he is the only player that I sense the word
His playing is
down right
Spiritual! ( u dont hear that too much)
R.I.P Roy
Good Golly Miss Molly! I never heard of this version until now. This is total bad-ass.
I listened to this album for hours through high school.
l had the pleasure of seeing Roy two times at a small bar in Cambridge, MA called Jonathan Swift's. Great setting, greatest guitar player I have ever seen! Miss that place!
This song is god tier! I don’t understand how it’s not ranked higher in space rock lists. Sometimes it’s not even mentioned.
Hands down the best version of this song.
I just love the way Roy hugged his guitar like a baby.He was truly Legendary!! I met a man who lived outside Washington D.C. and saw Roy often performing at a small bar quite a few times near there.No one played like Roy did and never will !!
saw Roy in a cheezy bar in Boulder Colorado in 70ies. Man just melted the paint off the walls. 5 star show
You lucky fucker

@stuartturner6251 I've seen several shows like that- different people but same effect.
Best guitar 🎸 hero of all time, everytime I hear this song. I have acid-flashback !!!!!😶😶😶😶😶
What a treat! I had not heard this for years. Best version of this song I have ever heard.
Classic. I was so fortunate to see him live at the Cabooze in Minneapolis. It was so packed I had to climb up on the speaker stacks to watch the show. Phenomenal ❤
Un grand musicien respectable dommage qu'il avait une vie très perturbé ! Paix à son âme !
Thanks Roy, Neil. Both my heroes
Roy...Gone But Not Forgotten!!!
He is Gary St. Clair. This song although great, does not do Gary's voice justice. Listen t some of his other stuff.
Another musical genius from the 70s, lived a troubled life, most of the gifted do.

I put him ahead of Hendrix. Imagine, not even in RS's top 100. Shows what these lists are good for...
@@jrbleau I wouldn’t say he’s better than Hendrix, but he’s alittle bit better than Richie Blackmore.
Few covers surpass the original. This is one of those times.
Neil Young agrees. He speaks highly of Ray.
an unappreciated classic

walked into dorm to find my roomie playing this thatn was in '82 got bitten by the blues BAD havent been the same since God could he blister or what?

Saw many years ago buchanan in Paris at elysee montmartre i was ashtonished how roy plays guitar is like the great jeff beck
Original version is by Neil Young (from Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere album)
Roy did a perfect cover of it !
Love this album..one of my first Vinyls in the US.
In 1975 Rolling Stone called him the best rock guitarist in the world. That's when I bought my first album.
He still is the best to this day

Blues infused with Rock equals happiness,
This remind anyone else of pink floyd's breathe in parts?
Floyd Gilmour yes it does floyd
+Floyd Gilmour Beginning at 6:35, and then the whole part that comes right after that.
probably because its the exact same chord progression on the verse.
Neil Young put it out in 1969, I guess Gilmour/Waters were listening
Floyd Gilmour: I ran into your former bandmate the other day. You know, Pink Waters.
Yes thought the same
love the man hate to see him leave this so early i heard down by the river the 1 st time on beaker street out of conway arkansas witch is no longer on the air waves but beaker street the web site is still there check it out they played killer old rock
Wish Roy had covered Cortez The Killer !!!!
