Steve Haynie 12,193 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 There is one more reason to want to get a Telecaster and then give up on it knowing I will not play like Roy Buchanan. 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
diablo175 8,129 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) From that same show, I believe, my fave Roy jam. Kinda similar song themes, too Edited December 11, 2020 by diablo175 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jakeboy 6,678 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Roy was such a monster. Him and Danny Gatton both just killed it each time.... 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kinda similar song themes, too He wasn't nearly that composed when I saw him at the Dog Gone Saloon in Spartanburg SC in 1988... He was on fire! He did Purple Haze too, and blew the roof off the place! And a couple months later, he was gone. That one bothered me a lot. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutchman 2,327 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) There’s a certain kind of magic that happens when you crank a Fender wide open. Roy embraced that! And then tried to blow it up!! Edited December 12, 2020 by Dutchman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
django49 9,831 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Saw him live exactly once. As best I can tell, he turned every knob on a Twin Reverb (mounted on a folding metal chair) to 10, then let it rip.....Aimed straight at us. The ladies in the party ran off to the bathroom and came back with toilet paper hanging outta their ears. He WAS great, but man alive....A Twin on 10 when he plays those licks off the end of the neck! It just screamed. 3 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
