1. Do you know what they have already?

Buddy has a TON of CD's. His most recent is an acoustic blues record called "Blues Singer" from 2003. It's very good, but if your friend is already a fan of his he may have it. Any chance your friend lives in Chicago? Buddy will be playing at his club during the month of January.

4. My friend has none of his recordings

...and he lives in Seattle, not Chicago.

So, for an intro to Buddy Guy, would "Feels Like Rain" be good?

thanks

CDS of BG are "Damn right I got the blues" and "Slipping in".
He's been around for along time and has alot of great recordings.If your friend is into Buddy you can't go wrong with any of his stuff.

3. I second the "Damn Right" CD

I've seen him a number of times....He's one of the Old Masters of guitar.
