Chuck Sudo of Chicagoist found a stellar Buddy Guy video:
The concerts, recorded on March 17-18th of that year, featured Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Stephen Stills, the Modern Jazz Quartet, and others. “Stormy Monday” finds Guy being supported by Bruce on bass and showcases the twisted genius of Rashaan Roland Kirk, simultaneously playing tenor saxophone and stritch (a straighter version of an alto saxophone), who nearly steals the song. Guy restrains the pyrotechnics and ends the song with a smoldering scat vocal.

For the record, I saw Buddy Guy at Antone's once, he wore stone washed overalls and a jheri curl, even though it was 1992 or later. Saw him one other time at his club in the South Loop, and he wore something equally disconcerting.
I was at a convention at the Hilton near the NHM etc. I wandered away from it and found a sleazy bar, well, kinda. I started shooting the breeze with an older black guy when I noticed a black with Jheri curls and a Lincoln green velvet suit, some type of hat.
He goes to the loo and leaves. I say something to the guy I was talking to. He says, "You don't know who that was? That was the owner of this joint. That is Buddie Guy!"
I refrained from asking, "and who is Buddy Guy?" This was a snowy March in 1996. Not too bad, but cold.
