Fender – The Golden Age 1950 to 1970 – Inspirational Guitar Music That Defined The Sound Of Rock 'N' RollVarious
CD (Item 600916) Ace (UK), 1950s/1960s — Condition: New Copy
A tribute to the mighty Fender guitar – an instrument that forever changed the sound of music in the 20th century! The set focuses on the first two decades of recordings that used the Fender electric – tunes that are heavy on instrumental elements, and usually sport a smoking solo in the middle – in styles that run from rock to soul to R&B – with a few early country tunes thrown in for good measure, given that Fender first started out with steel guitars! The collection's got plenty of classics that shine anew in this light – brought together through a love of the guitar lines that form their core, with plenty of fuzz throughout. Titles include "I'm Looking For Someone To Love" by The Crickets, "Miserlou" by Dick Dale, "Besame Mucho" by Jet Harris, "Memphis Soul Stew" by King Curtis, "Soul Serenade" by Willie Mitchell, "Barabajagal" by Donovan, "Rock Me Baby" by Otis Redding, "I Ain't Got You" by The Yardbirds, "Who Do You Love" by Ronnie Hawkins, "Feelin Good/Please Love Me" by Ike Turner, "Catfish Boogie" by Tennesse Ernie Ford, and "Wonderful Land" by The Shadows – plus rare radio ads for Fender, by Jan Howard, Hank Snow, Faron Young, and Barbara Mandrell! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
