Danny Gatton was 'better than they say'? The man has a signature model of Fender guitar with his name on it. People who knew about guitar playing sure knew about Danny Gatton. That said, I don't think I have enough of his material in my music library. This makes me want to do some research...

Albert has played with everybody who is anybody on the country scene (not bad for a Brit) and always seems to enjoy himself. I was amazed to find that he is embarking on a 2022 tour taking in the USA. UK and Europe. He is 79 folks!

God gave us guitar lovers this 45 minutes to cherish.

The thing with Albert Lee which is really unique and what a lot of people don’t realize is that he’s not just got great technique and speed. The biggest thing that makes him stand apart from other players is his ability to improvise and play complex fast runs that join together seelessly and completely differently every time he plays a song. the endless ideas that he produces with speed fluency timing and swing is never the same on any song. I am not sure how he does this because lots of guitarists can learn a solo or a challenging piece of music note for note by copying it, but Albert will play it different every night and it will sound incredible.

Isn't Vince amazing? His taste, tone and touch on the instrument and as a vocalist and bandleader are unrivaled. He's the complete package, which is probably why Dire Straits invited him to join back in the 1990s, and also why the remaining members of the Eagles asked him to fill the spot of the late Glenn Fry. I love Vince's Telecaster work; his tone and taste are just amazing. And his chops are world-class, too, but he never overplays.

For me personally It doesn't get any better than Vince Gill. He holds back here slightly in deference to his guitar heroes but after seeing him going back to when he first joined Pure Prairie League he's as good if not more gifted than anyone I've ever see, And that's just on guitar, when he picks up a banjo, mandolin or anything with strings like he did with PPL it's a whole new world. This video is a gift for all. .

It's impossible to formulate a list of the "best" or "greatest" guitarists in the world, past or present due to criteria used to judge and the many genres involved. It is a certainty that the knee-jerk reflexive bowing down to Jimi Hendrix is pure bullshit when one considers dudes like Danny Gatton, Tommy Emmanuel, Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Roy Clark, and many others. Personally, I've never seen anyone who could play about any song by ear, utilizing the entire fret board with effects generated from his fingers quite like Danny Gatton. Up close and at a small venue, it was astonishing to witness.

I was fortunate enough to see Danny Gatton on tour in a small, hot, crowded venue years ago and I thought the roof was going to come off the building! What a great show that was, he passed on 4 years after. RIP Mr. Gatton.

One and only Danny Gaton and there will never be anyone like him

Albert Lee is the kindest, sweetest, nicest man I've ever met. Watch his face when others play, he looks so pleased when other perform, he is always supportive of everyone he plays with. Plus, he is a number one major guitarist, obviously. My thanks to my adopted home of Great Britain for sharing him with us, his lucky admirers. P.S. He sings. His song "Julie's House" is so hauntingly sad.

He got double or even triple scale, something very few session guys get - and drove a Ferrari to work. Why? Because the man loves performing, never lets his ego get in the way, and strives to make the headliner sound good. And he's a Telecaster virtuoso... even if he does play a Music Man these days!

I'm sure I can't be the only one that watched this show (back in the day like I did, or hell not until today ) and wondered why Danny Gatton's guitar sounds strange. By "strange" I mean almost like we are hearing just the wet signal on a delay unit and none of the dry signal from his actual amp. The link below is Danny on Austin City Limits and is a great example of what his guitar tone really was like. The way it sounds on ACL is how it was supposed to sound on "American Music Shop". kzread.info/dash/bejne/aKaKqq2ldpvfYKg.html I was talking to a guy here in Nashville who was a close friend of Danny and the subject of "gremlins" always showing up at the worst time possible if not in his own rig, then in the P.A., the recording studio, or TV studio to plague him and get him really depressed. I have had a lot of similar luck but apparently the worst I've seen was a cakewalk for Danny. I asked him to tell me specifically what kind of stuff are we talking about above and beyond Murphy's Law B.S. we all deal with. He responded by starting to talk about this episode of "American Music Shop". Amazingly I remembered what he was talking about VERY well. When this aired on TNN in 1993 I was finally starting to not sound like an amateur on the Telecaster...and I stress the word "starting". Both the lead guitar player in my band at the time (who was really the only chicken pickin' Tele player in that area of S.W. Virginia) and I watched this show loving every second of the playing but I will never forget thinking "Why does his guitar sound like that" and at the same time Tim asking me, "How did they manage to get his guitar to sound like that?" My buddy took a guess at what we were hearing and apparently he was pretty much spot on with what actually happened. We are apparently not hearing the signal from the mic that is in front of Danny's amp. When the engineer went to mix the multitrack recording of the show, the track where that mic corresponded could not be used. Apparently it sounded like a bad XLR cable. That would not be abnormal whatsoever as that happens all the time as anyone who plays music for a living knows, but what doesn't make sense is how the recording engineer that night never heard it. That tells me it likely wasn't the XLR from the mic itself because that is also how the audience was also hearing his guitar. So it must have been something in the chain after the mic signal but before it got to tape. The engineer in charge neglected to monitor what was going to tape and it was at LEAST days later when this was discovered. So what they did was use the signal from a mic that was hot to tape but was not in front of his amp. So it has all of that ambiance of the room. It was A solution and likely the only one aside from Danny coming back and replaying it which would have likely been interesting as hell to match back up because he totally played in the moment. From what I hear Vince was not pleased because he knew what Danny sounded like that night and we are not hearing it here.
