Still Smokin’ at 87 – Buddy Guy Electrifies Boston’s Wilbur Theatre
WSNY wouldn't play Buddy Guy's songs when he performed in Schenectady in the '90s. They interviewed him when I brought him into their studio in downtown Schenectady, but when I showed them several of his albums, they refused to play a single cut and played an Eric Clapton number instead.
