Roy Buchanan - Sweet Dreams free for downloading

Thank you The Departed for introducing me to this gem of Guitarist

Rips your old heart out by the roots and stomps on it. What a life cut so short. RIP Mr. Roy.

I never get tired of listening to Roy playing Sweet Dreams. The Master!

I ALWAYS shut up when I heard anything by him and listened and hung on every note--always immediately knew That's Roy!! I was crushed when we lost him...

The Departed brought me here . RIP to all who Departed , including you Roy 

Absolutely a masterpiece. The greats like SRV, Gary Moore, Peter Green and many others would have looked to this song for inspiration. Unbelievable

3:18 the moment she realized double dropping tabs was a bad idea

I was in the Marine Corps Bootcamp when this was aired. Memories.

One of the saddest musicians ever. A pure genius and talent. RIP

Absolute masterpiece and a serious crime how underappreciated this man is to this day...

When I was in college a million years ago, a buddy of mine liked to say that no matter how good someone we all idolized was at something, whether it was sports or music or whatever, there was someone out in the world we'd never heard of who was better than our idols. We argued about that all the time. Then, in 1972, Buchanan's 2nd album came out, and I bought it. At the time it was all about Beck, Clapton, Hendrix, etc. I'd never heard of Roy Buchanan. But after listening to that album, I had second thoughts about what my buddy said. Maybe there is someone out there who's better. Buchanan opened my eyes to that concept with 'The Messiah Will Come Again', and reinforced it with many more magic works over the years. He was a true master that few knew of; much like Rory Gallagher and James Burton, only less famous than either of them even. RIP Roy. You are missed, and you are remembered fondly by many of us.

great song, i wish Roy and Patsy were still with us.

The BEST story involving Roy (who I saw a few times in The Wash DC area in the mid-80's) is when he played in Germany and after one particularly kick ass song the German crowd all starting chanting "Roy number one!, Roy number one!" and with his head tilted down in utter humility he softly said "I love you all for saying that but the truth is there is no such thing as number one"....that was Roy in a nutshell right there.

I bet I've listened to this 20 times in the past week. This is so so good and encourages me to practice. Music connects so many people it's amazing.

His tone is the colour of his guitar... a nice golden yellow.

Sounded like he was skinnin' a live cat there for a minute.

Who needs vocals when a guy can make his guitar cry and sing like that?
