I just love tone of that Jazzmaster...

I got here because of the talk box effect!!!!

❤❤ Love Conway Twitty and his songs. My favorite singer. ❤❤

This song was written during the democratic Kennedy and Johnson presidential era. Perspective. 😂

That Stratocaster is probably worth $50k or more ...

1:25 Swing, Larry, swing!!

What kind of hat was that guy who was singing wearing? I want to find one

Cash had class. Wouldn’t sing this trash song. Guy has no teeth. Big surprise.

Stringy is Rey's wife stationed off stage using the "talk box" Rey invented. Here, Rey takes a solo complete with bar crashes and tone knob swells, much like what Speedy West would do later. He comes back to do "Stringy's" lines out of the lead break. A lot of what I've heard Rey do previously is usually just "swoops" to accent lines.

The smartest thing old Larry ever did was to keep both these guys playing for him. These instruments would be: one of the very first Fender Bass VI guitars, and a very early Fender Jaguar. These guys were so close to the Fender plant, that they were able to get the earliest versions of everything Leo made. How convenient! And this song was so easy for these guys, they could have "Santo & Johnny" through it!

1959 or a very late 1958 Jazzmaster with the early gold anodized pickguard. My brother bought a 1960 which is pretty much where I started!

Pretty sure, from some long-time sleuthing and paying attention, that Roy was the guy who probably played the first ever recorded Jazzmaster, on Bobby Darin's "Dream Lover." AND, it was probably the very first commercial Jazzmaster ever to be played, period.

Born in ‘43, he was 63 here…missing sth?

this is where jeff beck first discovered the 'talk box'

The bass player doubles as a body guard.

I Walk the Line as Champagne Music....ouch ! Buddy's prodigious talent notwithstnading.

Wonder what amplifier he was playing through?

This song was an O’Bama prediction.

Dude is flat-out RIPPING

"I found droppings. And they're fresh"

Yippee

Matching blonde Bass VI and Jag. Pays to be "A Friend of Leo"!

Nashville tuning?

Theres nothing likeva Strat neck pickup tone. Sexy

I had buddy morells "guitars international " in the 60s. Had it stolen and never seen another one.

Wow and I thought Speedy Alma Seltzer was wierd. That eye rolling ukulele will now give me nightmares.

I always watched Lawrence Welk. Everybody on the show had to smile. My dad said "even the horn players must smile when they play." lol

RIP Bob Heil 2/28/2024. He credited Alvino Rey as the first one who experimented with what Bob would eventually call the Talk Box.

Buddy Merrill And I Were Seniors In High School Together Gardena Ca. 1955 Lawrence Welk Hired Buddy Before Graduation .

Great performance. What an odd question for Welk to bring up at the end. Awkward.

These guys must get hit on by beach babes like crazy

Cantinflas la tocó en la película el padre cito

What a great guitarist!

Alvino Rey introduced the talk box in 1939, just a few years before this clip. Thank you for posting this. Definitely far out for so far back.

Sweet, clean, simple and neat.

Enjoyed that, I remember backing him and Anaconi at the auditorium in Porterville Ca. 1974.They were both nice people.

you need to spend a video showing guitar players the proper way to hold a pic.......cant believe how many guitarists do not hold it correctly as you do

a master....

Didn’t he also play steel guitar?

Thank-you LW! Ah wunderful, wunderful!

Rest in peace, Buddy. You were one of my heroes as a kid.

OMG guess my mom never made me watch the early years. It was always a trade off between Larance Welk and Hee Haw on Saturday night. Thanks for the post n an old memory. 😂

Those double-stops right at the end blew my mind.

Hot Rod Lincoln with no lyrics. And some hot pickin.

👏👏👏como se llama ese tema? Gracias/what’s the song name? Thank you

Notice the heavy guage strings

OK I'm not a Speedy West historian, but this sure don't sound like the stuff I dig from him
