Roy Buchanan
Bill Millar, Roller Coaster, 1999
Roy Buchanan may be remembered as little more than a guitar player who achieved minor British chart success with 'Sweet Dreams' (#40 in 1973) and, if that's the case, it's no surprise that Mojo magazine should have left him out of their 1996 survey of The 100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time.
