Buddy Guy – Sweet Tea (25th Anniversary)

Due to celebrate his 90th birthday in July 2026, Buddy Guy is the last of the great Chicago bluesmen that were such an indelible influence on the biggest guitarists in rock – Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards and many others.

Born in Louisiana, he moved to Chicago in 1957 and worked with legends such as Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf and Little Walter at Chess Records, the label that issued his first album in 1968.

At the dawn of the 1990s Buddy signed with Silvertone Records, with whom he has enjoyed a long and fruitful association over the last thirty years and more than a dozen albums. One of these is Sweet Tea (2001), something of a classic in his canon, presented here on coloured (well, crystal clear) vinyl for the first time to celebrate its 25th anniversary.

Cut at the studio of the same name in Mississippi, it features a raw, back to basics approach with plenty of extended, heavy jams and on which Buddy really burns.

Nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album, highlights include four songs by the late Junior Kimbrough, a fellow blues stylist from the Southern USA, including the acoustic confessional ‘Done Got Old’ and a powerful take on Lowell Fulson’s legendary ‘Tramp’.
