Buddy Guy is an American blues guitarist and singer, born on July 30th, 1936 in Lettsworth, Louisiana. He is recognized as one of the pioneers of the Chicago blues sound. In the '50s, he began performing with bands in Baton Rouge before making his way to Chicago in 1957.
Initially recording for Cobra Record Corp.'s subsidiary Artistic, Buddy Guy later joined Chess Records where he worked as both a sideman and leader. During this time, he also recorded under the pseudonym Friendly Chap for Delmark Records. His talent led him to Vanguard in 1967 and subsequently to collaborations with various labels.
With an impressive career spanning decades, Buddy Guy has received numerous accolades including six Grammy awards and 23 W.C. Handy Awards. In recognition of his contributions to music, he was awarded the National Medal of Arts in 2003 and was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.

This studio release marks an historic first as it brings together the incomparable B.B. King and Guy on the introspective and moving lead single, "Stay Around a Little Longer". The landmark single represents the first time that these two blues titans have ever joined together on a studio release. Carrying 12 tracks on 3 sides, the fourth side is graced with a beautifully crafted etching that is as much a pleasure for the eye as the other sides are for your ears!
