Released October 25, 2010

Living Proof is Buddy Guy's 26th studio album. After nearly fifty years in the music business, this was Buddy's highest charting album ever, peaking at #46 on the main Billboard album chart.

The album loosely follows the progression of Buddy Guy's life. "Living Proof was designed partially as an aural autobiography from the legendary Buddy Guy, opening up with the stark summation “74 Years Young,” then running through songs that often address some aspect of a working musician's life."

2. "Thank Me Someday" 5:42
3. "On the Road" 4:11
4. "Stay Around a Little Longer" (feat. B.B. King) 5:00

I am interested in jazz from the 1920s. Can someone recommend me some artists from that time period that are good? I think a lot of them were orchestras.

I don't like big band swing or later Coltrane Bird Miles Davis stuff, just that exuberant 1920s stuff. Is it Dixieland? I am not sure but I am talking about Ain't She Sweet and Sweet Georgia Brown etc- just rollicking fun music to my ears.

Id recommend Joe pass For any jazz guitar fan. He's great.
