PAGE " - WATERLOO CHRONICLE, WEDNESDAY. APRIL 2, 1986 Coral Andrews Chronicle Special "We're gonna play some things so funky that after a while, you're gonna be able to smell it," said a tall, dark and handsome guitar man, his diamond 'BLUES' ring " dazzling as his smile. The packed Ontario Legion SOBA (Southern Ontario Blues Association) mob not only smelled the music but heard, saw, danced and lived the music of the Guy, who reputably taught Jimi Hendrix the ropes or strings in this case. Chicago rock blues dynamo Buddy Guy's first guitar was rigged together from his Mama's screen door wire, so you could aptly coin the phrase 'wired for sound.' "I played to the old Texas greats in those days: Eddy Arnold, Tex Bitter but I loved John Lee Hooker, Mississippi Fred McDowell, and Muddy Water," said Guy between string-breaking sets. "Hell, I couldn't play in the house. My brothers, sisters and mother would run me out, sol played in the middle of nowhere." From 'nowhere' Guy got 'somewhere'. Back in the early '60s he was playing rock blues before anybody knew what it was. "The record companies would say, 'well, what is that. We're not gonna touch it,' tt said Guy with a deep chuckle. That soon changed! _ ,. "I did some work with Eric Clapton, and Bill Buddy Guy gave all he had to local rock/blues fans Blue Spruce, 6t4'Ft.arCutqrithtt..... bt5'thd9t..,.......

"I still feel Jittery when I go on. I never plan what I'm going to play. l just go out there and relate to people as they are.

People say I can win 'em wth one note. l don't believe that stuff," said Guy modest- y. '"hhte man did give it everything he "got" in his recent x-w appearance. - A _ _ _ ._ . Guy played some rock star schtick including the flrst few bars from Cream classic Sunshine of Your Love, Freddy King's Going Down, Mojo and Hush Hush by Guy mentor Muddy Waters. The 1atriinch 50" barrége boogied about as Buddy Guy stretched and milked those Fender strings for every fine note they were worth. Buddy Guy then enticed the SOBA mob with rock standard I Just Wanna Make Love to You as the famed rock bluesman made love to his Fender axe on yet another hot-damn SOBA Saturday. t1uy still can't believe the praise be gets from SocondHouiMrom Wm‘ng-norw In «mm 60¢ STARTING ON MARCH 31st TO APRIL 27th WITH ANY CHICKEN PURCHASE, YOU CAN COLLECT 3030mm AND FRIENDS UNBREAKABLE " oz.
