A Twangy Touch On 1960s Hits!

As one of America's most infuential guitarists, Duane Eddy's famed twangy, reverb-drenched guitar shines on a wide variety of pop-rock hits, standards, and more!

Backed by two drummers, four more guitars, organ, piano, bass, saxes, and that's just the beginning, Duane goes unafraid at the kind of tunes that normally are "one person songs" Like "Ballad of the Green Berets" which becomes a twang-bang march under Duane's banner Like "Monday, Monday" which was "The Mamas and Papas" and now has the wild newness of Duane Eddy.

After rising to fame in the late '50s with "Rebel Rouser," Eddy's infuence on radio inspired musicians like George Harrison and Bruce Springsteen. Rockabilly and country music were both major factors in Eddy's trademark sound; heavy, catchy guitar riffs over a ska-type beat. His hits included "Peter Gunn," "Because They're Young," and "Twistin' 'n' Twangin'."

As music morphed into melodic sunshine pop, Eddy adapted his sound to ft chart hits of the '60s in his own twangy style.
