These are clips of Speedy from the TV show "Country Style" created by The LeGarde Twins back in 1963-64.

I hope you all enjoy watching these as much as I did!

Thank you, Ernie. What a great player! The first tune is named "Railroadin'".

....ah Speedy. What a stylist, what a legend, what a character. No mistaking those whistles, screams, slams for anyone else.

Thanks for posting those Ern.

That's a fantastic group of Speedys talent. What a great show stopper he was. His style has yet to be duplicated.

I worked for the Lagarde Twins years ago. The Bus's air broke down. It was a hard trip! 😯
