I met Buster Jones setting up chairs for his own concert in B.C. years ago. I was gifted the ticket at last minute because of an ill friend who was very familiar with Buster. I did not recognize him and told him I had come out early and was hoping "Buster" hadn't cancelled. He assured me that "Buster" would show. After the concert he autographed a poster with personal message to my ill friend thanking him for his support. What a concert. A very humble and talented man.
And buster wipes the floor with them all..
Superb! Most players would be happy to play like one of those greats. He could play like all of them. And brilliantly.
Buster was great. He was a great player and a teacher too.
I wish he were better known.. Buster has always been one of my idols, I share him with everyone. Not only did he have his own style and sound, but he mastered those of everyone around him as well.. also, I may be crazy but this sounds identical to theme song in the movie "Up"..
His raw talent combined with how much he adored his predecessors shows how humble he really was. What a good, talented dude.
Every time I come across another piece of Buster I feel so sad he isn't with us any more. Such a great player. Such a good teacher.
I have watched Buster play this demo 100 times and I’ll keep watching it for 1000 more times. I love it! R.I.P. Buster
bro... Vancouver grizzlies represent! mah man haha. rip buster, you were a rare gem keeping tradition alive
Still one of the best compositions I've heard period
It's amazing how greatly Merle Travis played using his thumb and one finger method.
Doc Watson too
Amazing.
One of my all time favorites. Funky fingers himself
Fantastic played and so nice tune
nobody could play like buster ! he was somethin else man !
@rss313 The first song is "All I need is you" . The song was performed by Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed. Buster B Jones kind of added a Merle Travis part and called it the hero lesson. The second song is "A Walk in the Park". There' actualy a real lesson to both songs in the GtrWorkShp channel.

Man it makes me really sad to think this incredible talent of a man is no longer here.
Awesome X 10
Can't forget him, one of the best pickers ever...
Such a lovely melody, incredible playing
Great picking.
He’s class
Love all 3, but there's something about the old timey, rag time way merle played that i just can't get enough of.
I second that!
Merle Travis' music was full of hip, sneaky little things that he did to make his playing and songs more-interesting to audiences. Lots of syncopation, and like you said - an almost ragtime feel - to his playing. And if you listen to Mose Rager, Travis and Ike Everly, the three musicians most-credited with originating the Kentucky finger-picking style, more than a little of that style came from trying to realize pianistic ideas on guitar, especially the rags and other piano styles popular in the early 20th century. On the acoustic blues side of the house, you'll hear it in the playing of the amazing Blind Blake, too.
I love Chet and Jerry's playing/singing a great deal, but there was something special about Merle Travis' style that keeps me coming back to him. You're right about that.
Great artist ...
thats gorgeous pickin :)
amazing....
Wow, awesome playing! Love it!
@rss313 These two guitars are the only guitars with his name on the fretboard. Both guitars were built for/given to him by people who thought he might deserve a guitar with his name on the fretboard. Thom Bresh has the same guitars, with his name on the fretboard. The Godin Multiacs were part of their show, when they were on touring together.
Please reupload Busters version of "skippy" one of my favs of his, much love, thank you!
The roll at 3:09
@rss313 Hes a professional, so he's proud of his abilities and he wants people to know who he is. This is not uncommon in most professional musicians. Check out Stevie Ray, Chet and many of the country musicians on stage. From what he does here I'd say he has nothing to be ashamed of. ;-)
Chet said of Jones: "Buster Jones is the best finger-picker I've heard since Jerry Reed.... he plays like he's double-parked!" Chet sure had a way with words, didn't he?
now I get it!
Wow
@stringbound that is v. respectable. his performance is obviously worth it. what piece of this is "walk in the park"? i like the beginning where he differentiates between the three.
Grew up with him and played music with him he actually got declined in one band we played in and I got mad at the band leader for not hiring him true story two years later and Guitar Player magazine he had a record out and become world class just because of that decline the band was R----- and the band leader was G P Roanoke Virginia I was playing bass in the band
RIP
I'll take Jerry Reed. Out of these three masters he had the most interesting style.
Chet’s style was defined as much by his sweet or as Buster said “perfectionist” touch as it was by alternate thumb picking - the touch really is captured here. Busters a fine picker nonetheless.
I couldn’t choose, love them all, including Buster, who probably was able to play faster them any. This gave him the option to compose some really complex songs. Well beyond the ability of most to play. Merle the start of it all, Chet was the cleanest and most expressive, Jerry, well, he was incredible, such complex rhythms. Masters one and all.
They’re all great but I’d somewhat agree I definatly like Jerry reeds sound allot but Chet knew so many songs it was crazy mr guitar was the perfect nick name but Jerry reed was a better composer all my favorite Chet songs were by Jerry reed
Buster B. Jones passe away so young.. at only 49. Anybody knows why he passed away so early?
alcohol
Drinking
I met him one nite playing in a car bodyshop in Raleigh NC. The owner had paid him to come down from home in Virginia and play for his friends. It was great but he must have drank a full case of beer while he played Mike
2:28 Walk in the Park
what was that second guitar he played with
It's a Godin nylon. Thom Bresh, who is Merle Travis son, plays them and played with Buster quite a bit. Cheers.
Buster B Jones played soooooo good when he 'slowed down' Every bit as Clean as Chet . When things are played real real fast there is so much "missed' . But I think he understood that "most' (up and coming finger picking guitarists) were more impressed with speed than the Beauty of an extraordinary arrangement. Same with Dear ole Tommy Emmanuel .When Tommy plays slower,he plays FAR better.
I disagree with every word of that. A person should play what they feel. If it's in you to play a piece fast--play it fast. Buster never missed a thing.
Who made this song?
awesome performance, but how full of yrself do you have to be to inlay every guitar with your own name?
It makes people think twice about stealing a guitar if it's obvious who it belongs to.
rss313 if you're that skillful, and not proud about it there is something wrong
@@wildbillhackett Maybe. Maybe not. If you're stealing it with the intent to never sell it, then my reply would be "definitely not true". There's very likely a bit of ego in there, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, it just exists.
Don't place too much store in that.... just a little show biz action there. Performers have done stuff like that to draw attention to their music for ages, going back eighty years or more. Trust me, Buster Jones was the opposite of arrogant and self-aggrandizing. If he'd been any more humble and low-key, he'd have disappeared altogether. Truly, I wish more people had known of his brilliance as a performer. He died an unknown great on the instrument. Not completely "unknown," but certainly unknown to mainstream audiences and not just known by fans of guitar. Which is a darned shame, considering that he was far more talented than many more-famous performers. The music business can be a cruel one in that respect.
I love your work. not!
Thank you for your meaningful contribution. not!
Bet you cannot play an a minor chord without stumbling
Someone hacked my account! I love buster, & i do have a doctrite in music performance if u must know!
