Blues Legend Buddy Guy is celebrating his 90th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed guitarists of his generation.
Popular guitarist-singer Buddy Guy has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 90th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Guy, a cultural icon
Born George Guy in Lettsworth on July 30, 1936, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Guy's not just a great guitarist, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Buddy hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Buddy Guy as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 90.
Happy Birthday, Buddy, you're the best!
