- Guitarist and composer Roy Buchanan was born on September 23, 1939, died August 18, 1988 in SShA.Syn priest, Roy Buchanan, of course, was raised on the music gospelz - this first love has passed a red line through his whole life, at different stages intertwined with kantri- and western, rhythm & blyuzRHYTHM & (R & ATom, blues and soul. it is very unusual, but quite professional equipment guitar led Buchanan in concert band famous Dale Hawkins (1958), although before that the guitarist had to try myself in many different middling teams. some sources indicate that it was Buchanan nepoimennovannym co-author of the great songs Hawkins «Suzi Q», but documentary evidence of this hypothesis have not. However, it is known that Roy was involved in the creation of landmark blues things like «My Babe »and« Grandma's House ». In 1962, Roy Buchanan recorded with veterans of the American blues-oriented popular music Freddy Cannon, Bob Lyumenom and The Hawks and then permanently disappeared from the horizon. He reasserted itself only ten years later, releasing a strong blues album (with the usual touch of Buchanan gospelz) «Roy Buchanan», which included a country-standard «Sweet Dreams». After a series of ideal from a musical standpoint, but commercially unprofitable albums «That's What I'm Here For», «In The Beginning» and «Rescue Me» musician finally recorded an album, which was awarded the highest marks from critics - «Loading Zone» . In the record featured two of the most powerful things repertoire Buchanan - «Green Onions» (co-writer and performer of the second guitar Steve Cropper) and «Ramona's Blues», also in collaboration with Cropper. Professional "stroke" Buchanan was extremely focused and "tight" game with his left hand in the most seemingly difficult places solo - it's lovely to hear how things copyright guitarist, and his arrangement of the song recognized masters, for example, «Hey Joe» Jimi Hendrix. Usually Buchanan played on the same guitar model "Fender Telecaster," that because of the sharp mediator was almost broken, but a tool to "build" the ideal, and therefore the musician did not refuse him. After a few more albums made as impeccably as «Loading Zone», Roy Buchanan once again went into the shadows - he emerged in 1986 with a lovely drive «When A Guitar Plays The Blues». At all stages of his career, he was called a virtuoso, but Buchanan steadfastly refused to wear the title, content with the modest role of the musician "second tier". His mentor was called Eric Clapton, Robbie Robertson (The Band) and a number of other recognized guitarists. Roy Buchanan was painfully shy and reserved man, he tried several times to commit suicide, but each time found himself next to a colleague on the works of Steve Cropper. In August 1988, once in police custody on charges of driving while intoxicated, Roy Buchanan hanged himself in his cell. Unfortunately, the work of this artist wide circles until now virtually unknown (although the reissue of his albums and yield wonderful collection, 1995, encouraging), and it remains "a musician for musicians": professionals only bow to that name.
