ROY BUCHANAN
with MALCOM LUKENS keyboards, JOHN HARRISON bass, BYRD FOSTER drums
The master guitarist whose unprecedented technique made him a blues hero in the 1970s.
Roy Buchanan has long been considered one of the finest, yet criminally overlooked
guitarists of the blues rock genre whose lyrical leads and use of harmonics
would later influence such guitar greats as Jeff Beck,
his one-time student Robbie Robertson, and ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons

Live in Japan is said to have been Roy Buchanan's favorite of all his platters, and ironically,
it was never issued stateside. However, as word spread, the title became
an essential addition to his discography. Fact is that it may have never come out
at all, had there not been a loophole in Buchanan's contract with former label Polydor,
giving them control over his non-North American output. Joining the guitarist for his 1977
tour of Japan are John Harrison (bass), Malcolm Lukens (keyboards), and Byrd Foster (drums/vocals).
They are likewise the core contributors to Buchanan's most recent studio effort,
A Street Called Straight (1976), though no tracks from the album are represented here.
Instead, the set consists of recent collaborations, definitive cover versions,
and a few seminal Buchanan classics. The immaculate fidelity immediately separates
Live in Japan from most other releases in his canon.
Live in Japan concludes with an intimate and affective "Sweet Dreams," which may
well have been the artist's unofficial anthem, as his unique interpretation undoubtedly
made it a signature piece. If you own but one concert recording of Buchanan,
let it be this one, as you will not be disappointed...(AllMusic)
