La leggenda vivente del blues, Buddy Guy oggi compie 83 anni. Per celebrarlo vi posto il suo brano “What Kind Of Woman Is This”, con testo e video.
Auguri Buddy.
George “Buddy” Guy è nato a Lettsworth (USA) il 30 luglio 1936.
Buddy è uno dei capostipiti del blues elettrico americano, uno degli ultimi rimasti in vita, ma comunque sempre attivo tra album e tour.
Eric Clapton lo ha definito uno dei migliori chitarristi blues di sempre, cosa che concordo pienamente, perchè Buddy Guy è un mix di esplosività e genialità.
Il suo modo di suonare la chitarra fu veramente innovativo, tanto da influenzare musicisti come Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan e molti altri ancora.
Rimasi impressionato dalla sua grande performance al Pistoia Blues, con la sua voce, la sua musica e la grande simpatia. Un concerto coinvolgente dalla prima nota all’ultima.
La canzone What Kind Of Woman Is This, scritta da Guy per l’ album Bring ‘Em In del 2005.
Testo: Buddy Guy -What Kind Of Woman Is This
The gates of Heaven must be open
I think I saw an angel just walk by
Hey, the gates of heaven must be open
I think I saw an angel just walk by
I heard a blind man screamin’, say
Now there goes a sight for my sore eyes
There goes a sight for my sore eyes
Now there goes a sight for my sore eyes
What kind of woman is this?
You should be locked up, pretty girl
In my bedroom with me
Hey, you should be locked up, pretty girl
In my bedroom with me
So we can do the same thing that Adam
Did under that old apple tree
What he did under that apple tree
What he did under that apple tree
Well, well, well, well, well, well
Choke out
Here I come again
There’s always some good lookin’ girls
Hangin’ ‘round this famous place
Well, hey, there’s always some good lookin’ girls
Hangin’ round this famous place, talkin’ bout legends now
Aww, but this particular one
Looked like somethin’ from outer space
She looked like somethin’ from outer space
What kind of woman is this?
Hmm, what kind of woman is this?
What kind of woman is this?
Ooh, what kind of woman is this?
Look at that, she shakes all over when she walk
She made a blind man see
Made a dumb man talk
What kind of woman is this?
Hmm, shucks
Tell me, hey, what kind of woman is this, man?
Somebody gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
Gotta, gotta, gotta tell me, tell me
What kind of woman is this?
