Strap ? May just need temples adjusted

The father & son duo flat git it ! I've uploaded 3 or 4 more by them & will be loading more, keep an eye out, subscribe it you like !

I can't say I'm an expert. What I did was to count along in 12/8 time, I think, but at least 12 beats to the bar anyway. What is so crazy about this piece is his incredible coordination to play two different patterns together within that framework. It's simply incredible.

@@ukeukeaduke I really don’t know know anything about it… I sort of felt like he was playing 3/4 with the left-hand and 4/4 with the right hand. That’s just my wild and uneducated guess here… It really tickles the musical part of the brain!

Does seem 3 beats to the bar or triplets on bass with counter right hand riffs, not being musically trained (play bass by ear) I can't explain or describe the measures or patterns !

Thank you much @grantb1326, I've been shootin' with a good camcorder, mic, monopod etc trying to document Austin Roots Rockers plus old VHS & cassette tapes of bands I've played bass in (My Bass Life) I'll be uploading more from this nite & others trying to build my youtube channel up. Subscribe if you like, may get notified of more uploads !

@@boppin_bennie Sounds good archiving the Austin scene, went to Austin on vacation back in 2003, loved the culture, didn't want to leave. lol.

Thanks, I'll let her know you dig the cool shirt ! I'll be uploading more from this show & others (usually every 3 to 5 days, subscribe if you'd like. I've been shooting with a single camera but have others & may do multi camera shots in the future, it's a lot more with time sync & editing ! For now got plenty more to upload.

@rockitMIC just saw your question, it was recorded on Nov 1, 1987. From a public radio broadcast on KUT radio Austin, Tx #4 of 15 songs done that day.

Well thank you kindly, much obliged !

Much Obliged Sluggo !

Really impressed with these boys, dad on drums, son vocal & guitar, they make me play bass along with there stuff, but do fine as a duo. From the Nashville area

Thanks for the comment @PaulTheSkeptic, The song originally by Johnny Burnette & the R&R Trio included Paul Burlison who played a Fender Esquire/Tele but it's thought he couldn't have gotten that tone with the Fender & many rockabilly fans believe it was Grady Martin played on the studio recording, he played a Paul Bigsby solid body (not that the playing here matches his) & yes many rockabilly bands used archtop guitars but plenty played solid bodies ! Here's another from the Eightballs with a Gretsch ua-cam.com/video/Xo4pmmK__fA/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Boppin%27Bennie

Thanks @bjlewi9214 ! Kool you heard bout JK & the Pirates way back, that pre Beatles Brit rock, a bit darker then the power pop to come ! I played in Rockabilly bands The Kraze, The Eightballs & others in Pittsburgh, before movin' south and hookin' up with The Tycoons in Tx Seems you're a Euro rocker ? Played bass a long time & lately uploading converted files from old cassettes, VHS or 45s (no cell vids in the day) plus got a decent video camera setup that I shoot some roots rockers friends and player around Austin lately, have to checkout Nero & Dazzlers !

@@boppin_bennie Yes , I m from the rockin movement Europe . But we love goldbranded house rockin music from the states like M ike Waggoner ( comin up ) , Dennis Harold ( make a little lovin ) , Tony Casanova , Hardrock Gunther , Ray Sharpe , Eddie The Chief Clearwater (Duck Walk ) and so on . Ah , there’s a special version of Fever out there by Carlos and the banditos, strange mystic twistin vibes . Okay , have a good rockin day . BJ.

@@bjlewi9214 to cool fer school ! Dennis Herrold, we did the flip "Hip Hip Baby" found it on "VHS but it's really dark, low light, may try to play the VHS & shoot it with video camera from TV screen to see if It'll brighten up, Ray Sharpe (Linda Lu) he's from Ft Worth Tx, friends did gigs with him ! I used to sing "Teenage Blues" originally by Al Casey & the Bats ! I do have an audio only from an early Tycoons gig, not real tight or good audio on cassette yet still may upload. Are you on facebook ? ua-cam.com/video/wiJtAgP2HVc/v-deo.html

@@boppin_bennie No , sorry I’m not on Facebook . . I ´ ve played in Ockabilly bands ,too. The Dead Diabetics and Hot n Cold , there’s some Vid stuff live at Mr. Perfect Hamburg . May you’l like it .

@@bjlewi9214 Always thought Hamburg would be a ruckus time after reading about Beatles stories for years ! Searched round & found some stuff with Mr Perfect, Kool-O ! Seems we've traveled the same alley rockin' dig ! ...

Can't tell you much about Tav, I think he was in Austin a while back. UA-cam showed you commented on The Tycoons doing "Restless" but when I went to read it could not find it !

Did you used to see the Eightballs back in the day ?

@@boppin_bennie I didn’t know about the Eightballs until last night. Never heard about them. But just offhand, I’m guessing they were making music around the same time as the Stray Cats. Some big shot record label should have snapped them up. Saddens me to think those labels didn’t do that. They missed out.

I played bass with Rockabilly bands in the Burgh The Kraze & after The Eightballs, decided to move to Austin early 86 & shortly after arriving got a band goin' called The Tycoons. The Eightballs kept playing for a while, not sure why they stopped gigging. I've been in contact with them, wish we'd have played on the early Rockabilly Revival shows, plenty of Euros still love old school American root music !

So good !

I can hear a smooth bass line in my head, great soul sound.

Barbara Pittman one of few female Sun artists ! She lived in California for awhile singing on some B bikers flicks soundtracks, credited only as "Barbara" ! Great hearin' from you again ! ua-cam.com/video/rBJkr9V8Lw8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TheVisitors-Topic

@@boppin_bennie I didn’t know that! She has lost her appeal however…

@@rockitMiC why did she lose her appeal ?

If you compare with SUN’s I Need A Man, it’s bland…

@@rockitMiC You're right but she never had much luck getting airplay & after heading to California seems movie work helped pay the rent & she did what they wanted, may be why she didn't want her full name used just "Barbara" !

Link Wray 79, written by Billy Cross, Wyeth, Wray, Gothehrer, Stoner, Gordon. Back when they were in Robert Gordons band, sort of a hard take-off of the Peter Gunn Theme

@@boppin_bennie - totally forgot, thanks Guardell. Loved when Robert Gordon and Link Wray played together. Link was a monster and when my sister brought "Rumble" home, I put my ears up to the speaker and turned that record player up LOUD!

@@cguzelli1 cool ! Originally titled "Oddball" when Phil Everly heard it (also on Cadence) he said it sounded like a rumble so it got retitled ! Sure you know radio stations banned it thinking it may cause street fights but it sold well anyway & now in the library of congress !

@@boppin_bennie didn't know that. I flipped the record over and found "The Swag" - man I love instrumentals and met Dick Dale and his son here in California. I totally cool guy

@@cguzelli1 The Swag ! That was in some crazy John Waters flick & Dick Dale, lucky you got to meet him Teisco Del Rey i.e. Dan Forte knew him, used to do "Misirlou"

From what I understand Theo's a French-Canadian who lived in Bordeaux, France where he established himself as a song writer working in mid century country with soul, rock & pop influences. He currently lives in Austin on a 3 year work visa I believe.

He's a youngun !
