(* With Quinn Sullivan)

This release captures Buddy Guy's live performance at the Filene Center (Wolf Trap) in Vienna, Virginia, USA, on July 12, 2012, during his US tour. Buddy Guy—who also had Japan tour dates scheduled for late July—delivers a magnificent blues performance, fueled by a passion that seems to come from deep within. His rendition of the classic hit "Hoochie Coochie Man" is truly moving. His between-song banter is a huge hit with the audience, and the inclusion of the guitar prodigy Quinn Sullivan adds dynamic variety to the show, electrifying the venue. Quinn Sullivan’s guitar playing is impressive in its own right; the bluesy guitar battle between him and Buddy is a knockout. As for sound quality, this is an audience recording sourced from a 24-bit master and remastered for CD, resulting in a surprisingly high-quality release; it offers excellent clarity and a solid, sharp, and well-defined sound throughout.
