Unfortunately, Buddy has only two entries in the Alligator catalog: "Stone Crazy" and "Alone and Acoustic," the latter, of course, is shared with Junior Wells.
It's a shame, because both of these recordings are arguably his best performances. I believe that Buddy and Bruce Igueler (sp?) of Alligator had a bit of a falling out, and Buddy did not have a record release in the U.S. for over 10 years--a true crime. And I just don't get it because Albert Collins had all the support in the world from Alligator; what made Buddy so different? Alone and Acoustic sat in the can until "Damn Right I Got The Blues"--on Silvertone--was released. I guess Alligator finally believed that it had a "viable product." Don't you just "LOVE" the record industry??? It's things like this for which Buddy need make no apologies.
