Music Video Of The Day: Buddy Guy 'The First Time I Met The Blues'

By Lisa White in Arts & Entertainment on Aug 19, 2014 10:30PM

Some serious Chicago love and good tunes will be enjoyed at Ravinia tonight. Buddy Guy and Mavis Staples take the stage this evening, and we can't think of a better way to unwind than enjoying the smooth soulful voice of Mavis Staples mixed with the electric fury from Buddy Guy's guitar. Tickets are still available here. For now, enjoy a vintage track of Guy performing "The First Time I Met the Blues" from the 1970s documentary Chicago Blues.

Since you apparently can't watch music videos on television anymore, we'll showcase one here daily. There's no rhyme or reason, time or season, to which video we'll choose. Have a suggestion? Contact us at tips@chicagoist.com.
