BUDDY GUY - GRAMMY-winner and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Buddy
Guy is an iconic force on guitar whose incandescent solos reveal the
searing, uninhibited soul of the blues. The Muddy Waters protégé
eventually came to define second-generation Chicago blues with his
wildly exuberant performances and incendiary guitar playing. His
influence was profound across the Atlantic, where British blues lovers
Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page absorbed his style. Guy's
definitive 1991 album, Damn Right, I've Got the Blues, officially
launched his ascendance, and he's been making the most out of his
late-blooming fame ever since. JIMMIE VAUGHAN - A four-time
GRAMMY-winning guitarist whose incendiary sound has become synonymous
with Texas blues, Jimmie Vaughan is one of the greatest
instrumentalists to emerge from the Lone Star state. Taking
inspiration from the "Three Kings" (Albert King, B.B. King, and
Freddie King), Vaughan began his career as a bandleader in the late
'60s and formed The Fabulous Thunderbirds, whose 1986 single "Tuff
Enuff" hit the Top 10 on the Billboard pop chart. He's worked with
artists including Eric Clapton and the Foo Fighters and recorded nine
albums as a leader, including the GRAMMY-winning 1990 session Family
Style in collaboration with his younger brother, the late guitar giant
Stevie Ray Vaughan. BUDDY GUY - GRAMMY-winner and Rock & Roll Hall of
