Oh Man.....

Danny Gatton is/was one of the most phenomenal guitar players of all time. He was fluent in rock, boogie, jazz and blues. He committed suicide.  God knows why someone with such talent and loyal fans and admirers does that.  Anyway, one of Bill Gould's teenage sons discovered him and shared this with me last night. Even if you don't care much for the boogie woogie, hang with it until the 4:00 then enjoy the show.





This one is pure Gatton.

Warning! We have beer spillage onstage! Everyone stand back!

The beer bottle was cool (sort of improvised steel guitar), but being able to hit the notes through the towel was nothing short of stunning.

My fellow musicians don't call him "The Humbler" for nothing!
