The label- and era-spanning anthology THE DEFINITIVE BUDDY GUY lives up to its title, painting as spot-on a portrait of the legendary Chicago blues axeman as one could ever want in a single disc. It includes both his soul-on-fire slow-blues masterpieces ("A Man and the Blues") and his full-on barn-burners ("A Man of Many Words") and covers his long solo career as well as his fruitful collaborations with singer/harmonica man Junior Wells. As the tracks move through the years, you can hear blues history in the making.
