As a blues guitarist Buddy Guy is one of the best. And he was blessed with the voice to sing the blues. I give half these tracks 5 stars -- the rest 4s.

"Stone Crazy" is one of the best records Buddy Guy has made. Unvarnished, raw, not contaminated with pop-sounding songs and superfluous guest stars, this CD was recorded when Buddy Guy was just another much admired, but little recorded bluesman.
This record sounds like Buddy was set free. After being corseted by record companies and made to play with brakes, Buddy plays with unrivaled fury and intensity on such cuts as "When I Left Home," "The Outskirts of Town," "I Smell A Rat," and others.
Buddy needs to make more records like this. Any Buddy record is awesome, but this kind of Buddy record is priceless.

I love Buddy Guy, his falsetto voice, his guitar tone, his mellow pickin', his frenzied shreddin', it's all here too! The songs are few, but long and let him stretch out and wear it out! This was his first solo endeavor and it's totally raw and rockin'! I listen to it everyday! Get all his stuff, it's eclectic from acoustic blues to psychedelic rock, he's the coolest!
May 25, 2007This is the only album prior to about 1990 where Buddy Guy plays like Buddy Guy. It is one of the best blues albums by any artist, and is one of only a few things out there that show you what Buddy Guy can really do. You get an idea of what he was like live, and an idea of why people like Hendrix, SRV and Clapton counted Buddy Guy as one of the best ever.
