    Anyone that gives a thumbs down doesn't know much about music. I have listen to him sense I was a kid and I am now 70 years old. The first 45 record was done by him and my forst LP was done by him. I loved his music back then and still loved listening to him today.

    Back in 65 - 66 my older brother, while in high school, worked at a radio station in Yuma. He brought home a demo album, "Duane Eddie does Bob Dylan" ,as it did not fit with the stations format. I swiped that album after a while because I just loved the album and that twang. It was not until Wikipedia came around that I figured out just how famous Duane Eddie is. I still have that album along with the other albums from my junior high and high school years. ... not that many. They have been packed away for decades. ... My brother does not even remember having it.

    Along with the Chantays, The Shadows and The Ventures, and The Tornados (USA), he's one of my major influences in guitar sounds, and the original influence as I grew up listening to his stuff on 8-track as a kid.

      @That70sGuitarist 2 роки тому +1

      In fairness, what Duane is doing with his guitar here is all very easy rhythmic stuff, with little to no real effort or exertion involved. Contrast that with what Stevie Ray Vaughan routinely did in live performances...extreme bends, insane chops and impeccable runs, all of which required intense effort. If you've seen close-ups if Stevie playing, you can see the muscles in his forearm bunching and jumping as he makes his hands do things very few others could manage, and that alone equals considerable pain, both during and afterwards. It's been said that anyone can sound like Stevie...for 30 seconds at a time. Try doing it for a couple of hours!
      During my many years as a working guitarist, the bands I played with usually closed the show with The Allman Brothers' "Ramblin' Man," followed immediately by Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird." That meant a 15 minute powerhouse workout for me as 1st lead guitarist, usually followed by me icing my left arm all the way up to the elbow.🤣
      The electric guitar is an amazing instrument...the more you put into it, the more you get out of it. All the rest is pain, wear and tear, and showmanship. For many guitarists these days, it's all about the "stank face," but to the true professional, you take the pain with the pleasure, and you let it all out where it belongs...on stage. Give it all up to the audience, without whom all of your pain and effort would be meaningless.

    • @That70sGuitarist
      @That70sGuitarist 2 роки тому +2

      @@georgebrown6540 Trust me, no offence was taken. I simply wanted to point out that not all guitar players take it as easy as Duane Eddy usually did. Although he was widely considered to be one of the greatest rock and roll instrumentalists, and rightly so, the style he played was relatively simple and did not require intense physical exertion.
      However, as early rock and roll gave way to rock, hard rock and heavy metal, the level of intensity and muscular exertion skyrocketed. This is when we first started to see what has since come to be known as "stank face." Some of the greatest guitarists who ever lived were notorious for the ridiculous faces they made while playing, like Jimi Hendrix, Terry Kath, Peter Green, SRV, Gary Moore and many more. Performing at that elevated level sorely taxes the muscles of the hand (small, delicate muscles for dexterity and quickness) and forearm (larger muscles for sheer brute strength), which can translate to considerable amounts of pain, both during and after the performance. I am far from the only guitarist who's needed to ice their fretting hand or forearm after playing three sets a night and finishing the last set with an extreme, 15 minute pyrotechnic workout.
      Personally, though, I don't usually do the "stank face" thing; instead I tend to zone out somewhat, concentrating so fiercely on what my hands are doing that I'm unaware of what my face might be doing.
      This has caused me to actually drool on my guitar several times during the most intense solos.🤣

      Agreeing totally - there are a very few really notable version of Ghost Riders, especially where each has it's own very distinct sound and yet carries the hallmark of a classic.
      So if you think of Johnny Cash's version as the first people think of, then this is no.2 on the classic list (by order of recording rather than personal fav order), no.3 would be 'Riders In The Sky' by the Shadows, and no.4 (for it's fun parody bit of comedy) would be Russ Abbot's 'Ghost Joggers In The Sky'. Some might say the version recorded for the Ghost Rider movie as no.3 maybe, but it felt a bit too 'trying to hard to gild the lily' elaborated to really count, but in fairness some might say that of 'Riders In The Sky', so I guess it's very subjective thing.
      But certainly, after Johnny Cash's version, this as a pure instrumental is no.2 in the classic versions, but on equal standing for choosing between when I put playlists together.

    Duane Eddy with that unique "twangy" guitar sound was every inch a rock & roll legend. The image, the sound and even his name added to that aura. I was surprised to learn that Duane Eddy was his real name ! One of a kind:

    Suggest you look up re - The Four Riders of the Apocalypse.
    Two versions of the theme were made as movies; One in the '20s as a classic silent film and another in the 1950s with Glenn Ford.

    This great song was, I think, originally sung by Vaughn Monroe, of which several versions are available on UA-cam including a live performance. Frankie Laine did another classic version and so did Johnny Cash. But Duane Eddy really kicks ass here. He's up there ridin' in the sky with the best of them.

      ​@@SplashgameFTWuh...what? This song was written well before anyone knew who Duane Eddy was. In fact he was about 10 yrs old when this song came out. Written and recorded in the 1940's by Stan Jones. Also recorded by Burl Ives in the 40's. I'm the same age as Duane...and I listened to the original version as a kid hundreds of times
