Just came across this. As far as I know, nobody's posted this on the forum yet.
Jimmy does a great job singing 'plain old country boy' and Buddy takes a solo.
The camera guy didn't know who to film through the solo, so you can only glimpse Buddy for an instant at the end of it.
Anyway, check it out. This was "THE" band, as Buddy wrote (in the liner notes to the 'four-wheel drive/steel guitar jazz' double LP).
Enjoy! |

Nice background comping for Buddy.
Made me think of Joaquin a bit too.
And the chord work was jazzy Hawaiian inflected.
Clearly the early steel work was the missing link, between jazz swing and country.
Sadley in the later years of E9 the jazz chording disapeared
and it became much squarer.
And the audience came to think anything jazzier "wasn't country".
What a sad loss.

Me to. I think Joaquin was the inspiration for most all the single string work on this cut. But I'm only guessing. |

| Buddy had a very modern sound, even way back then. |

| The first time I saw Buddy was when he was with Jimmy Dickens, in Shreveport,La back in the mid to late 50's. We were both just young guy's then and as they say had the world by the tail. |
