Buddy Guy - Can't Quit the Blues [ 3 CD, 2006/FLAC]

Legend status came late to Buddy Guy so it shouldn't be surprising that this is the first box set devoted to the blues giant's work. Yet it is still a bit of a shock, because Guy it seems, has always been a part of the modern blues scene, ubiquitous even in the late 60's at the era's high-profile rock and folk festivals, playing the hippie ballrooms alongside the major rockers of the day.
