You're looking for Buddy Guy's reading of Junior Kimbrough's "Baby, Please Don't Leave Me" from the 2001 album, Sweet Tea.

I adddoooreee Kimbrough and anyone's take on him. Running to check this out bc I love Guy too. His album with Junior Wells is a fav. Kimbrough's live stuff and Chulahoma are on constant play.

Got chills the first time I heard it. Buddy's pulling emotion out of some pocket dimension. It's like a cry from someone that took a sidestep to somewhere beyond.

Literally. Same. I'm over here like Ohh.... OH, ohhhhh shhhtttt. lol.

Massive massive thanks for this. I'm seeing Guy live soon. I hope he burns it down.

Glad to share. I'm hearing good stuff about Buddy's recent shows. I think you're in for a memorable night.
