Jimi Hendrix Jam With Roy Buchanan

Comments on 'Jimi Hendrix Jam With Roy Buchanan'

1. I agree with richdys and his reasons why this is not Roy
   Buchanan. It's hard to tell for sure because of the
   blurriness, but the guitarist in question looks to be
   Clarence White in my opinion.
2. Roy taking Jimi to school!
3. are you listening to the same jam...?
4. who is the black guy playin bass
5. hahaha...thats quality!
6. Chill the fuck out ya silly cunt, its not Roy. Deal with
   it.
7. i really love it when people who weren't even born yet think
   they know a person and his habits and moods how he done this
   or that. YOU PEOPLE MAKE ME SICK!
8. Wow...I don't think I've ever heard Hendrix or Buchanan play
   worse. Somebody must've spiked their beer...
9. Roy was a competitive guy when it came to jamming. If he got
   on stage with somebody which was rare prior to his record
   deal. Or somebody got on stage with him. It was his personal
   mission to weld that guys doors shut There is no he would
   have played this passively. 2nd. I saw Roy play dozens of
   times from 65-70 and I never saw him play as a trio. He was
   not a great trio guitarist. (Too precise) he did not like
   having to carry the rhythm section while he was playing
   lead.
10. No Apology necessary. This is not Roy. Holds the guitar all
    wrong Roy kept his neck almost perpendicular to his body
    when he played very flat. second by the time hendrix was in
    his heyday RB had been playing for years. I used to see him
    at clubs like the Silver Dollar and the 007 in d.c. Played
    with a bassplayer named Curt Jonne. His style of play was
    fully developed in 65/66/67. All his famous tricks. Even
    high on qualoodes RB would never play this bad. NOT HIM.
11. PART 2 - Sorry to say he always had a bit of a monkey on his
    back that finally caught up with him. One tidbit of his
    history is that Hendrix in NY sought Roy out when he live in
    DC and first got together to trade licks. thanks steve
12. PART 1 - Sorry to inform you that this absolutely is Roy
    Buchanan . You have to remember this is very early in his
    career with his signature hat , goatee and pointed sideburns
    which changed many times. I was a roadie ( even before the
    name ) back then we were called tech / light and sound men
    and the band setup their own gear. My friendship with Roy
    spanned from his solo act to a three piece then later adding
    a full time keyboard player and still have some guitar &
    leslie cords of his.
13. I bet my nuts the white men ISN´T playing a tele, looks
    more like a les paul... whoever he is
14. This is not Buchanon. Flat out guarantee it. Sideburns
    aren't right and Buchanon, Drunk on Lewds and falling over
    would not play this bad. Posture is wrong. Phrasing is
    wrong. Tone is wrong. Not him.
15. Then again, it does sound a bit familiar to perhaps a "
    'Dear Mr. Fantasy' - jam", like free style, so, maybe it
    could be Mason. Both Mason and Buchanon are heroes, and as
    Roy is no longer with us, all his performance videos - out
    there - are great and have special nostalia. The video
    posting person wrote: "1968" I notice, so it had to be
    after Hendrix was well-known. Hmm?! That's a knoggen
    scratcher (the whole puzzle)!?
16. To Toris93, Thanks for the history. All artists in this era
    are fascinating. To all viewers, as to this video, I've
    recently seen more of Dave Mason, & while he's no runt, I
    still think Buchanon's facial features resemble the guy in
    question,more. If Roy writes differently in
    autobiography,maybe he forgot about it, or it happened
    pre-fame of Hendrix, so he wouldn't have known who he'd
    jammed with,or had a beef with someone in Jimi's camp-Who
    knows? Roy may have played more like this at the time.
17. probably true, the band billy had before zztop toured with
    jimi in the states!
18. DEFINITELY NOT RORY GALLAGHER
19. its roy buchanan because dave mason isnt as good as that and
    dont the volume swells at the start of the solo give it
    away? who else did them back in 69? hmmm roy buchanan and
    hes playing a telecaster it is buchanan or an exact look
    and sound a like its not dave mason or zappa!!
20. People were more open-minded to music back then.
21. It's the guy from traffic
22. I've heard it said that Hendrx jammed with Billy Gibbons, a
    lot, too, of Z.Z.top.
23. And to the one commentor, I think the one player in question
    IS Buchanon, the facial features are right and the guy shown
    here is tall, like Roy (in fact ten gallon hat-style
    proportions-ha!),certainly taller than I remember Dave
    Mason-or any of those others mentioned-being,though they're
    ultra cool artists too.
24. I wonder if whoever filmed this was using super 8 cam, or
    1/2 or 3/4 inch reel to reel. I've seen them all, had to
    convert some to v.h.s., and recently to d.v.d.. They're
    getting harder to find, the projectors, & clunky as all get
    out. I bet the filmer watched it at home until it lost
    magnetic clarity. It doesn't get much cooler than these
    cats.
25. Dave Mason possibly??
