Buddy Guy is a pioneering blues guitarist known for his innovative techniques in using electronic feedback and distortion, earning accolades from Eric Clapton. Making a cameo in Ryan Coogler's film 'Sinners,' Guy embodies the blues musician Sammie Moore. Born in Louisiana in 1936, he became a prominent figure in Chicago's blues scene, founding his own club, Buddy Guy's Legends. Notable achievements include eight Grammy awards, induction into the Blues and Rock & Roll Halls of Fame. His distinct sound developed unintentionally, demonstrating his creative approach to music production.
Actually, in Chicago then, we didn't have stages. We'd always go in a corner and play. And they had jukeboxes during their breaks, and they would play tunes.
I forgot to turn my guitar off one day and a lady passed by, and her dress tail hit the G string. And it just stayed there with distortion for about 20 minutes.
