Phil Baugh (1936-1990) ist ein zu unrecht vergessener Gitarrist und Studiomusiker. Stilistisch bewegte er sich zwischen Country, Rockabilly, Pop und Jazz. Ein Eindruck seiner Spielkunst vermittelt obiges Video. Es wurde aus dem Song Country Guitar zusammengeschnitten. Ursprünglich wird zwischen den einzelnen Solos gesungen. Vermutlich stammt das Video aus dem Jahr 1965. Weiss jemand Genaueres? Um welche Fernsehshow handelt es sich?
Baugh demonstriert die Spielweise folgender Gitarristen: Les Paul, Billy Byrd (spielte für Ernest Tubb), Merle Travis, Luther Perkins (Gitarrist von Johnny Cash), Chet Atkins, Hank Garland und Duane Eddy. Am Schluss legt Phil Baugh in seinem eigenen Stil los. Und wie er loslegt… Im Video spielt Phil Baugh eine Mosrite Gitarre.

Nancy Sinatra, Billy Strange (middle) and Lee Hazlewood in 2003.
Today Billy Strange celebrates his 80th birthday in Nashville, TN. Here’s a video interview with Billy Strange I did. He talks about working with The Beach Boys, Nat King Cole, Phil Spector and Nancy Sinatra.
Billy Strange helped the Beach Boys, Elvis, Frank and Nancy Sinatra and many others to make hits.
He was a number one studio guitarist in the music studios of Hollywood in the 1950s and 1960s. You can hear his guitar on songs like “Surfin’ U.S.A.”, “Sloop John B.” and countless other Beach Boys and surf songs. He’s also famous for playing the haunting guitar on “Bang Bang”, the song that was used by Quentin Tarantino in “Kill Bill”. His arranging skills made songs like “These Boots Are Made For Walkin’”, “Some Velvet Morning” and “Something Stupid” immortal.

Canadian rock band Chilliwack (former The Collectors) celebrates its 40th anniversary at the River Rock Casino in Richmond on May 21 and 22.
The Vancouver Sun wrote an article about the anniversary and there’s a video of the band rehearsing “Lydia Purple”.
Speaking of Lydia Purple: former Chilliwack/Collectors bass player and singer Glenn Miller remembers how it was produced.

B.B. Kings Gitarre aus der Flut gerettet (Foto: Samuel M. Simpkins/The Tennessean)
Was haben die Gitarren von Johnny Cash, Jimi Hendrix, B.B. King, Les Paul, Tommy Tedesco, Pete Townshend und Peter Frampton gemeinsam?
Das reissende Wasser hat sie alle am 1. Mai in Nashville beschädigt. Die Instrumente gehören zur Sammlung des Museums Musicians Hall of Fame and Music, das kürzlich seine Räumlichkeiten wegen eines bevorstehenden Abbruchs verlassen musste. Deshalb wurden die Instrumente eingelagert. Unglücklicherweise liegt das Lagerhaus am Cumberland Fluss und wurde von der Jahrtautausendflut überschwemmt.
Hier ein Video von tennesean.com mit den beschädigten historischen Instrumenten: Musicians Hall of Fame instruments destroyed in flood.
