Description: Fantastic album by one of the World's greatest Fender Telecaster guitarists. Re-mastered with superior sound and a bonus track. This was Danny's last CD for his Mother's Indie NRG Record label just before he signed with Elektra and recorded "88 Elmyra Street". This is a truly classic and legendary album. Powerhouse Records pay royalties directly to the Gatton family. Here's a youtube link to hear the song "Nit Pickin'" from this CD--just cut and paste: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7R4mwOOyEQ The album is a typical Gatton eccelctic mix of Roadhouse/Honky Tonks style of American roots music; Blazing Country style Twangin' Instrumentals, Blues, Classic Swing Jazz, 50's style R&B, and timeless Ballads. In the mix of Gatton originals and Standards and Classics there are two bonus cuts: "Nit Pickin'" which was a Guitar Player Magazine soundpage from 1989, and did much to bring Danny's phenomenal Guitar playing to a wider International audience, and a previously un-released version of "Quiet Village" recorded in 1975 which later showed up on Danny's Major label debut album "88 Elmira St" on Elektra Records.The album has been-re-mastered with a fat shimmering sound perfectly suited to enhance the sparkling "Twangy" Guitar sounds that are the Hallmark of the Danny Gatton Guitar sound.The re-designed package has new art work and a great cover photo of a very young Danny Gatton by Bob Berman as well as the original front cover art re-produced as the tray card art.Titles include Nit Pickin', Lappin' It Up, Melancholy Serenade, Sky King, Homage To Charlie Christian, Sleep Walk, Fingers On Fire, Cherokee, Notcho Blues, and Quiet Village.Powerhouse Records Cat#POW-118Reviews...heartwarming Gatton replete with screaming whistlers, crying bends, soaring sustained notes, and breathtaking soul.
