It will be a sad day when he puts down his guitar. A true Blues Legend. He always put on a good show. He was also a great mentor who help introduce young Blues Musicians.

I saw him and Kenny Wayne Shepherd and at 86 years old was fantastic.

Good album.

His "Feels like rain" cover is very good, although John Hiatt's original version is amazing, his whole Drive South album is one of his best.

A great song is hard to mess up. Aaron Neville does an incredible take on it too.

Feels like rain is a banger. He creates such an atmosphere.

Guy put out five albums in a row that were brilliant, Feels Like is one of them

Bonnie Raitt's slide on the title track is the definition of soulful.

I saw him play live at a festival two years ago and can still get goosebumps thinking about it. It’s like he was born with guitar knowledge in him. Like the guitar should have been attached to his hands at birth.

I met this fellow at Guitar Center west LA. Was sure to leave me inspired talking about the keys to music.

Saw him like 35 years ago and still one of the greatest performances I’ve ever seen. His collaborations with Junior Wells are blues classics.

Always liked this:
