While Buchanan is a talented player he lacks tone and soul. Albert Collins tone is more emotional at half the speed. That old saying is true "The notes you don't play are as important as the ones you do, especially when you're playing blues.
Lonnie Mack: One of the most underappreciated guitarists/vocalist of all time. His early 60s blue eyed soul vocals, and guitar instrumentals some of the best ever laid down in the history of rock/blues/soul.
Each one of them had his very own tone, they all were great Blues Heroes and outstanding showmen..RIP Mr. Albert Collins, RIP Mr. Lonnie Mack, RIP Mr. Roy Buchanan, you're truly missed and not forgotten. Fantastic Band.
I agree with seeing Roy actually looking happy. Every time I hear his music a sadness washes over me. His life was hard and I doubt he ever drew a contented breath. This video is a memorial to these three great players.
@@sagarpokhrel5357 I was just getting into the blues due to hearing SRV. I'd seen one song from each player on a show called nightflight on usanetwork. Then shortly after I saw this whole show on the playboy channel of all places... This launched me into the blues.
You notice when you have three guys like this there's no kind of compation just a massive pile of talent and fun to be able to just jam with each other and kick back and enjoy the night perfect!!!! 1000percent talent and fun
I Saw Albert in London 1991 in a beautiful venue whose name I cant remember....in the encore, Jack Bruce came Up to ThE stage and started jamming And Albert joined him
I have heard some great guitarists struggle against Albert, Roy is great but all three together is fantastic. Just goes to show how talented all 3 must have been! RIP guys.
I can tell why Albert had a reputation for blowing other guitarists away, and it’s all in the massive stinging tone he got out of his guitar. With just a few notes he does so much. He makes me think of a horn player more than a guitarist. I may be wrong, but I believe he actually said he played like a horn player, that was kinda his inspiration.
Albert Andrews well he was onto something there us Scotsman have been using the pipes to scare the shit out of everyone b4 during and after. It’s why we have never been conquered
@@woody816 lol the sound of cats in heat (bagpipes) is what made the Scots unbeatable... rotflmao not to mention the fact that everyone ran away from men wearing plaid skirts. Nobody wants to find out what is under their skirts... RUN!!!;... Lol
I was a teen at the Warner Theater in D.C. when Roy came out on stage drinking a Shclitz beer from a can & smoking a cigarette, he put the can on the piano, took a long draw off his smoke & began to bend notes & sccratch strings like no other.He put the butt between string & neck at tuner & proceeded to make his telecaster cry. He was amazing & I still feel honored to have been there.He deserved much more than being arrested for drunk driving & supposedly hanging himself in the holding cell overnight in Fairfax V.A. Wish he was going to be picking at the P.G. county blues festival again, where he performed in the 80s w/Johnny Winter on a clear summer day at the equestrian center outdoors.
Yeah these guys sure weren't underrated by fellow guitarists, 'under the radar' is a good way to put it... i think even most serious fans of electric guitar knew Roy was among the most amazing ever
Met Lonnie Mack in Madison IN about this time. He was in a small bar downtown, during the week, and played his ass off. Had some drinks, I bought them all, his money was no good, told some tales, made me a happy guy. Steve Bruner took me, RiP
+Dallas Junior Sad day. I just came from Roy's "Please don't Turn Me Away" or I wouldn't have known. Thanks for the news, however sad it is he must be remembered.......Always!
Can u imagine that heavenly sensational legendary guitars and blue's singers band in heaven playing music for all....rock n roll and blue's is going on right now....There memories aren't forgotten...sadly missed
Damn! All the lead breaks by these boys in this one cook pretty good all across the board. The character and personality of each guitar really shines through. I'm sure glad I found this one...
Timeless, sounds just as good in 2109 as it did back then. Legends all gone but live on with You Tube videos. Gotta respect the rest of the band all jumping in to jam. Piano man, Keyboard, drums doubled up. I think they recognized this was a special moment. What a musical era for our parents or older siblings. Today’s music doesn’t stand up to these guys. I’m glad I got to enjoy this via you tube.
Lonnie mack was one of the most talented people to ever pick up guitar I loved the man and his music but thanks to Google I can still enjoy Lonnie any time and any place rest in peace my hero
Yeah unfortunately they are not rehearsed or coordinated, so you might get an epic jam or a hot mess. Just watched Buddy Guy at the White House. He was dressed up and riffing, but Mick and Beck looked shabby, out of place and tripping over themselves.
@ Edmund Daley: I was fortunate enough to see Albert Collins and the Icebreakers more than a dozen times, and those hours listening to them were some of the happiest of my life. What an amazing showman! And such an old-fashioned southern gentleman, too. Never had a bad word to say about anyone. IMHO, one of the greatest electric bluesmen of all time. Certainly in the pantheon of the great Texas bluesmen, alongside T-Bone, Pee-Wee Crayton, SRV, and Johnny Copeland, to name a few. I also loved Lonnie Mack, too.
This show featuring these three blues guitar masters is SO good, it’ll give you chills...Crank up the sound as LOUD as you can stand it! Rock on Albert, Lonnie and Roy!
FANTASTIC! ! What a trio! Lonnie bought 1 of the original issue of the Flying V , so did Albert King. SRV idolized Lonnie, I didn't know he passed away. Great comments out there folks! Roy did have a rough life & seeing him smile is so rewarding. Then to have the ICEMAN spraying his sub-zero notes !!! All I can say is WOW!!!
I never heard Lonnie died. That's sad because he was maybe the greatest combination of vocalist and guitar man. He never got his due. The absolute greatest rendition of Memphis ever.
Thanks to Lonnie, I have my bluesaddiction.I was at home, my radio was on and then...... Satisfy Susie came along, many years ago. I bought many records, cd's and went to see him 3 times in Holland. I was in love with the blues from that time on. Since then I go to bluesfestivals, see bands in bars etc. , have a lot of friends because of that..Thank you Lonnie, for your music, my bluesaddiction and all the nice things in my life that happened to me because of you. May you rest in peace, love from Holland.
Sold out show I sneaked into. There was a snowstorm that night. Half of upper balcony was vacant. The sound was fantastic, which could not be said for most venues during that time.
All three had the biggest smiles. So cool that they really enjoyed the gig that much. Priceless. Three entertainment masters doin what they do in front of a prestigious crowd in the greatest venue in music.... wow good for them, good for us.
Oh Lord such sweet music they all make together. I wish they were still here so they could give us more of their music. Maybe we all have to go Further down that Road to enjoy and smile, this music touches something inside of me and I smile and I remember!
how could anyone give this a thumbs down I guess there's 91 people out there that don't have a clue as to what jamming is this is some amazing stuff by 3 rock and blues icons
Albert Collins takes this hands down. Take note from the no. 1 tele blues master, shredders. How to space out your solo's. It''s not always about how many notes, it's how to make each note count.
Of it were a composition for guitar playing collections. Roy Buchanan plays Hey Joe as good or better than JimI Hendrix. I just think they each have there own site and nobody needs strings like Roy Buchanan but Albert does make each note count but seems to have played every leafthe same but I love him too. Lonnie Mack brought Blues and southern Rock together without screen knowing it
Lonnie is a true Hoosier hotshot and a seminal player of Blues-Rock guitar. What an awesome jam with fellow legends Albert Collins and Roy Buchanan (RIP to both of them). Great post!
I was lucky enough to catch a show at the Berkeley Greek Theater a few months before Stevie Ray Vaughan died, Lonnie came on before Stevie, and as much as I love SRV, Lonnie stole the show. I was so taken by Lonnie's tone I went out the very next day and bought a '58 re-issue black korinna Gibson Flying Vee just like the one he played that night, except his wasn't a re-issue. Best sounding guitar I've ever owned and I've had over a hundred over the years. Lonnie's playing was so good I don't recall much of Stevie's performance. He Lonnie, was a giant among men.
i grew up listening to Lonnie Mack and his great friends here in Aurora, Indiana and can say we got the 1st hand up on everyone else, with his new albums and such, him and my dad Bob Hudson still remain friends to this day and have played a thousand shows together over the years. they made sunny side inn a happening place for years.
Yeah but when Roy is inspired it's a little bit of a different story Roy seemed to run hot and cold depending on whatever But no doubt on this one Albert and Lonnie are doing it up
Stevie Ray, Albert Lea , Buddy Guy, George Thourgood, BB King, Albert King , Chet, Muddy! Dang doesn't America have talent! I love all of them! We have a new batch comming up! Vince Gill , Lucas Nelson! I have heard so young women tear it up too! Samantha Fish !
@@georgettabarton4248 They certainly do, Buchanan my fav. But I gotta shout for my country... Jeff Beck , Eric Clapton, Gary Moore, Peter Green , Ritchie Blackmore, Jimmy Page , Toni Iommi, Slash , and Dave Gilmore. If I had to choose a fav .. Peter Green.
Lonnie was one of those few artists who were better live than on a studio album. Why? He gave off this electric energy; and clearly loved sharing his art...
RIP Lonnie Mack. Was at this show at Carnegie Hall. None of my friends wante Lonnie now jamming in Heaven. Whats with all the musicians dying in 2016! d to go so I went by myself.
To see all three together sharing the love must have been heaven! I was fortunate to have seen all in their separate gigs. Traveled through a Boston blizzard to see Roy at The Cambridge Performance Center where only a few others braved the storm to watch him conjure magic from his Tele. Later saw Albert at the same venue & had my mind blown when he came strolling into the mens room where I was taking a leak & he did likewise while one hand still wailed on his Tele with his roadie holding an insanely long cable to the amp onstage! I got to see Lonnie a few times & have been a guest on the bus & his shows. He signed my '64 Guild Starfire IV along with Srv & Double Trouble. I was blessed to have been friends with them! Vaya con Dios guys!
I saw Lonnie Mack once at Blues etc. in Chicago . His guitar rhythm was so good , I never wanted his songs to end. It was that mesmerizing. He was a technical genus when it came to creating rhythm with a guitar.
I was blessed to see all of these gentlemen many times in the 80s and it was beautiful to see them together--and that smile of Roy's just made me happy for him at that moment. I loved that man. 3 all-time underrated greats that still inspire me.
Roy Buchanan has been one of the most underrated master of blues guitar
Not to people who who follows blues back then ! 😉
😂
Never was he underrated ever. You just hanging with the wrong crowd. Gotta hang with Blues players
Lonnie Mack wasn’t underrated either. Roy had some major mental problems especially with women. He was a heavy drinker too and that’s a depressant ☹️
While Buchanan is a talented player he lacks tone and soul. Albert Collins tone is more emotional at half the speed. That old saying is true "The notes you don't play are as important as the ones you do, especially when you're playing blues.
I was at this concert and it was INCREDIBLE...I'm Grateful!!!
I can only imagine! Lucky
So lucky!!!
Wish I could say I was there.
Man u lucky
Wow that's 👌 great 👍 how's the wild weed 😳
Albert Collins giving me that adrenalin rush again...RIP
Yep! He does that
This is as happy as I've ever seen Roy. He had a hard life, but what a spectacular guitarist.
Wow the great Lonnie Mack, Roy Buchanan and Albert Collins. Never get any better..
Lonnie Mack: One of the most underappreciated guitarists/vocalist of all time. His early 60s blue eyed soul vocals, and guitar instrumentals some of the best ever laid down in the history of rock/blues/soul.
We lost him exactly 5 years ago today. Rest In Peace Lonnie Mack!
Exactly! I was going to write something pretty much identical to your comment, then I read yours and decided I couldn't write anything better.
@@WillyDaC thanks bro
I really dig his vocals. This is an awesome performance. Three of my favorite blusemen including two kings of the tele.
Roy Buchanan too.
Each one of them had his very own tone, they all were great Blues Heroes and outstanding showmen..RIP Mr. Albert Collins, RIP Mr. Lonnie Mack, RIP Mr. Roy Buchanan, you're truly missed and not forgotten. Fantastic Band.
Very well said 👊
Roy Buchanan’s ATTACK is unparalleled in rock and blues, he’s like a pre-punk rock bluesman, his attack is so dope
He really likes to spank those harmonics, does'nt he?
He wrote the book, then broke the mold in the same day!
All gone now but definitely not forgotten. RIP Gentlemen .
Amen
Like Motörhead, all gone also. May they all rest in peace.... Phil, Lem and Eddie..... .. . ...
Always nice to see ol’ Roy smiling and having a good time with Lonnie and company.
🎶👁️👃👁️🎵
Amen
Holy Shit! Albert tearing it up followed by Lonnie, then Roy shredding it all to pieces! Who wouldn't love this?
Roy Bishop Who doesn’t? That’s great 🎵🎶
I cant imagine anyone saying anything Bad about this Trio. Roy Buchanan has the Distinction of being "The Worlds Greatest Unknown Guitarist.
Competition stare between Albert and Lonnie TX goes hard man
that keyboard/piano is no joke either!! Whew!!
@Werner Voss, Agreed!
every blues fan should listen this at least once in their lifetime...
gosh.. i loved watchnig Roy happy there..
RIP Roy Buchanan
I agree with seeing Roy actually looking happy. Every time I hear his music a sadness washes over me. His life was hard and I doubt he ever drew a contented breath. This video is a memorial to these three great players.
i agree too, and indeed, this is a memorial piece..
There are no "shoulds."
Every blues guitarist should watch this every day of their life

Holy crap! How in the world did such a bunch get together? Amazing!!!!! Stars were all aligned!
The banter between Roy and the Ice Man (Albert) has me in stiches. Great to see Roy smile.
That's what I'm Screaming!
You notice when you have three guys like this there's no kind of compation just a massive pile of talent and fun to be able to just jam with each other and kick back and enjoy the night perfect!!!! 1000percent talent and fun
I saw Lonnie play a fraternity party in 1966. I got to stand six feet from one of the best guitar players I ever heard!
Mark Ritter AND WAS YOUR HAIR BLOWN BACK?
The ice man’s tone is out of this world
Albert Collins just plays one note and it hits you in the chest. Great stuff!
Modes9 Hits you in the chest, then drives right thru it!
I Saw Albert in London 1991 in a beautiful venue whose name I cant remember....in the encore, Jack Bruce came Up to ThE stage and started jamming And Albert joined him
It doesn't really get going until he unleashes, I wasn't paying much attention and thought Buddy Guy had turned up!
It's A Gift Only Albert, and A Few Other's Possess...
What A Trio We've Got Playing the Get-tar Here...
Awesome Share... 💕✌😎
Totally
I have heard some great guitarists struggle against Albert, Roy is great but all three together is fantastic. Just goes to show how talented all 3 must have been! RIP guys.

Two of the best tele players ever in the same room
+guitar 2199 Yup. One of 'em also replaced Hendrix in Little Richard's band.
The Telecaster is the finest battle implement ever devised. George S. Patton

Roy Buchanan clearly enjoyed this gig with his telecaster bro Albert. I like to remember him this way.
He was way ahead of his time.
@Rob Olijkan It was nice to see him smiling so big! It seems like they all had a great time playing here.
True king of tele and who is Roy, the lord ? The creator ? Lol he played really good here
@@OGStazzy That guy played brilliant everywhere an enywhere.. R I P. ROY..
Three of the most underrated guitar legends of all-time. Let’s just call them “The Underrated Guitar Legends Band.”
Loved that funny comment :) But what really matters is your your own rate you give them, guess we'd rate same ;)
Yeah these guys sure weren't underrated by fellow guitarists, 'under the radar' is a good way to put it... i think even most serious fans of electric guitar knew Roy was among the most amazing ever
By who
@@gerthie by anyone who cares to know. But not by common folk... like my gf

That look on Roy's face during the Lonnie Mack solo is priceless...
Sadly we just lost Lonnie Mack today. He was always a nice guy and never had an ego.
+Dallas Junior Sad day. I just came from Roy's "Please don't Turn Me Away" or I wouldn't have known. Thanks for the news, however sad it is he must be remembered.......Always!
never get tired of listening, this is music forever .
Lonnie was a big influence on the Allman Brothers Band. All three guitarists are amazing.
Man, this is the good stuff. Albert Collins has been so under appreciated. Great blues man/musician. One of my musical daddy's. Great jam.
Eight world class musicians playing in perfect unison. A truly mind boggling feet of skill.
Can u imagine that heavenly sensational legendary guitars and blue's singers band in heaven playing music for all....rock n roll and blue's is going on right now....There memories aren't forgotten...sadly missed
Damn! All the lead breaks by these boys in this one cook pretty good all across the board. The character and personality of each guitar really shines through. I'm sure glad I found this one...
3:06 the first time i saw Buchanan smiling :D
2 Tele masters and a Flying V guy....I love this
Flying V with a Bigsby too boot .....
Even if you are blind you can recognize the sound of Albert Collins...🤟
RIP Lonnie...
RIP pretty well everyone on that stage.
RIP ALL
R.I.P.
With the passing of Lonnie Mack today - all three are now gone.
One of the if not the best guitar jam I have ever seen

I just had a big smile on my face for eight minutes and eighteen seconds!!!
It’s good to see Roy smile, looking like he was having fun. He so often carried a load.
Lonnie mack was one of the most talented people to ever pick up guitar I loved the man and his music but thanks to Google I can still enjoy Lonnie any time and any place rest in peace my hero
Is it true that his song Wham is where the term "whammy bar" came from? He sure knows how to use it to great effect
And he can SING! What a great, raw delivery he had.
5:10 Roy being Roy, my favorite player ever!
Usually avoid 'all star jams' type of thing,as they stink.......NOT with these true masters! Incredible, beautiful and joyous.R.I.P.
Yeah unfortunately they are not rehearsed or coordinated, so you might get an epic jam or a hot mess. Just watched Buddy Guy at the White House. He was dressed up and riffing, but Mick and Beck looked shabby, out of place and tripping over themselves.

@Rafael Felan What Rafael said!
Stevie took alot from Albert King but I didn't realize the influence Lonnie had on him!
This show featuring these three blues guitar masters is SO good, it’ll give you chills...Crank up the sound as LOUD as you can stand it! Rock on Albert, Lonnie and Roy!
None of them became superstars - but this is all of them playing at one of the world's most prestigious music venues: Carnegie Hall. Love it!
Three incredible players with one of a kind styles. Gotta love it!
The three wise men on guitar. Merry Christmas in 2019, and keep on ROCKIN forever !!!!!

Primera vez que veo a Roy con una sonrisa sincera en algun video...
I never heard Lonnie died. That's sad because he was maybe the greatest combination of vocalist and guitar man. He never got his due. The absolute greatest rendition of Memphis ever.
We lost Lonnie this year... same day as Prince. Oh man, I loved this man. What an awesome musician.
Juan yes he was a fantastic musician and guitarplayer/singer. 👍🏿
OMG! I did not know! I was wondering about him I already know the other 2 have departed. Then I saw your comment thanks!

I saw Lonnie Mack once at Blues etc. in Chicago . His guitar rhythm was so good , I never wanted his songs to end. It was that mesmerizing. He was a technical genus when it came to creating rhythm with a guitar.
I was blessed to see all of these gentlemen many times in the 80s and it was beautiful to see them together--and that smile of Roy's just made me happy for him at that moment. I loved that man. 3 all-time underrated greats that still inspire me.
3 guitars, 3 distinct styles and tone... that's what I'm talking about.
"Nobody leaves this place without singing the blues."
