This might belong in the "You know you're old when..." thread.

I read that Duane Eddy died yesterday and just finished listening to a few pieces of his. I hadn't heard him in so long that I'd forgotten all about how distinctive his style of guitar playing was.

This one is a nearly 30-years later take on the music he wrote for the intro to the late-50s Peter Gunn tv series. It's an excellent example of his sound. The sax is more prominent than it was when he came on the scene, but I think that instrument's more forward sound here is the perfect complement to Eddy's guitar.

FWIW, Eddy was self-taught and could not read nor score music.

Good one there Dradernh, I like a bit of saxophone from time to time.

I got to know Duane Eddy in the 80s from his collaboration with The Art Of Noise.

Here he's "twanging" in the early 60s:
