Here's a special treat for all of the blues lovers in the house. It's an essentially uncirculated master of a classic Buddy Guy show from 1988. I'm willing to bet that no one has a copy of this recording, and certainly not from the master.Maddog took his make-shift rig into this show to capture Buddy and his band. The sound quality varies from time to time as Maddog started in the balcony at this show and ended up close to the stage by the end of the set. Also, everyone at the show was under the impression that there was going to be a second set following this one, but it was announced later that Buddy was too "sick" to play another set. Sample included - enjoy this rare recording.
