"Ring of fire" that first deep note still gives me goosebumps! I was around when the Beatles hit, but I was also buying this man's great tunes like Boss Guitar at the same time in 1963 wonderful memories.
A testimony to the beauty of simplicity, the power of a great sound, the pentatonic scale, and three chords. Ah ... to go back to 1958 and the era of common sense.
I am pleased this video has had so many views. It was suspected at the time that Duane would not appear again in the UK and that seems to be true. I always enjoy watching this because not enough credit is given to Duane as one of the world's BEST guitarists and there is not enough of him in the main stream media.
I’ve attended live concerts of Elvis, the Beatles, the Stones, and other great musicians. This was by far the very best concert I’ve ever attended. Too bad there’s no DVD. Most of Duane’s comments were not included. He has a great sense of humour and priceless insights. Gilbert in Toronto.
Like so many, early in his career, he forced us to grab a guitar and make music. He's actually a master of several genres as his career continues. My hero! Thanks Duane and mates!
MERCI pour cette excellente vidéo, ma jeunesse ( né en 41 Duane en 38 ) et tous mes vinyls , longue vie à Duane Eddy pour le bonheur de tout ceux qui aiment la bonne musique.
YES , MANY THANKS FOR THIS GREAT SHOW . WE WERE THERE , YES , A GREAT EVENING. WE ONLY SAW DUANE IN LONDON. HOWEVER , WE CAN ENJOY WATCHING AGAIN , MANY THANKS TO YOU . JOHN IN LONDON.
I was at Machester and finally got to meet my guitar hero Duane eddy and he signed my poster . He put keep on twanging Duane Eddy . Really made my musical life complete . Thankyou Duane and Deed and thankyou Robert Vincent what an artist . Great to see my good freind Dean on drums and Albert Lee
Thanks for this, I was there and managed to record the encore but wasn't sure of the policy for doing the same for the other songs. The Richard Hawley band are Jon Trier on Keyboards, Shez Sheridan on guitar, Colin Elliott on Bass and Dean Beresford on Drums. Guitar technician Gordon White, an unsung hero of Hawley gigs.
Thanks to these wonderful musicians, Duane Eddy recorded "Road Trip" in 2011. Best wishes. czcams.com/video/M0Cob3v-tJk/video.html *ROAD TRIP* Guild Guitar cover *Duane Eddy*
Had the pleasure of driving Duane and the Everly’s at the same time from the Hilton in AC NJ He was a very down to earth and he actually took out his guitar and handed it to me Here I was a shit limo driver playing Duane Eddy’s les Paul After I took all them to Philly and shot right back and took Bill Medley to Philly as well Salt of the earth people!
I play keyboards, but have become a bit of a guitar geek lately. If I had picked up the guitar, Duane Eddy's the guy I'd want to sound like. This London show must have been amazing in person, because it's just as marvelous on CZcams. Duane's 84 (!) now, yet all the hits and other songs sound just as great as they did in the '50s. Not many rockers play the Gretsch these days- it looks rather bulky- but he mastered it from the very beginning, and perfected it in that tiny studio out in Arizona. Thanks for posting this incredible concert by Mr. Twang, Duane Eddy...my all-time, lifelong guitar hero- and a great gentleman, too! BTW- Ever hear Duane's rare ballad "Along Came Linda"? Dug it up last night. Absolutely beautiful- almost classical!
No doubt the man was Iconic and a master of the high art of letting the backbeat breathe. A concept that sadly escapes most Guitar players. A Guitarist with a totally unique signature sound and style. No flash, fireworks, fretboard gymnastics, self aggrandizing overly drawn out solos, or pyrotechnics who found a winning formula of creating timeless danceable grooves, with a "Less-is-More" equation of tasty licks, fantastic tone, simple arrangements and subtle techniques. That said, for all the out of touch young Guitarists who talk about how limited Duane was. czcams.com/video/GvG41pUhQEc/video.html And I'm sorry but how sexy is Imelda May @40:00?
That's a bit technical for me. Right from 1958 he has been my guitar hero, but never mentioned in the top guitarist lists. Pleased to have seen him five times and to have several videos of him on here.
@@r4ndym4n If you are a Musician you'd know exactly what I am saying. But yeah, in layman's terms HE WAS A BAD-ASS! The "Lists" don't matter because it's all subjective but most of the people that do make the lists probably cut their eye teeth as kids trying to play "Rebel Rouser" or "Ramrod" if the truth was known. I despise trying to compare artists but without a doubt this guy was the catalyst that caused many a young man or lady to pick up a Guitar. Me included.
I think that black Gretsch is a baritone. Longer neck and very heavy strings with a beautiful deep growl. I had a Danelectro Baritone but kept bending strings and wrecking my old tendons so I sold her. They are tuned B to B instead od E to E.
The very 1st music concert I went to was in April 1960 at the Odeon Theatre, Oxford Road, Manchester, England. The package tour was Clyde McPhatter, Bobby Darin, Emile Ford and the Checkmates and, of course, tbe great Duane Eddy.
Nice, he plays a Gretsch White Falcon now. He wanted one in the 50s but it cost too much so he bought in trade in for a Gibson Goldtop for his famous Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins.
And he was for equal rights for all people way back when he refused to enter the white only door of a Greyhound bus station diner seperate from his black friend.He lost his apetite and went back in the bus in anger and disbelief. There were no such rules in Arizona where he grew up.
Hi, do you have the full video for this as I'm trying to get hold of the CD sold at the palladium to see if I can sync up the CD sound with your videos......Cheers R.
Yes, Wayne toured military service clubs. I saw him do a solo show at an enlisted men’s club at Andrews Barracks in West Berlin in 1968. I was an officer and had to sneak in.
Gretsch started with block inlays, then in about 1957 went to hump block inlays...basically a block with a hump. A year later in 1958 they switched to thumb nail inlays. You can see these on Brian Setzer guitars. So late '56 and '57 is the only time you'll find hump blocks...unless you count newer models. Duane Eddy's original was a 1957, and all his tribute models are based on it.
frank0stein Thanks Frank. The Duane Eddy orange 6120 with the hump inlays Is my favorite 6120. I got hooked on it when I heard the guitarist playing it on the 2000 all star tribute to Joni Mitchell. (On Taxi & Chelsey Morning)
@@armstronglance No problem. Yes me too. I got the mid-level version, an orange 5420T. I made sure to get the one with hump block inlays (which they don't sell anymore). People want to be like Brian Setzer, while I want to be like Duane Eddy.
I think you forget that cameras would have been stopped if noticed. So it was done surreptitiously. The Manchester show is darker and poorer from that point of view, but at least it is a record of his final two shows in the UK, and that's priceless.
"Ring of fire" that first deep note still gives me goosebumps! I was around when the Beatles hit, but I was also buying this man's great tunes like Boss Guitar at the same time in 1963 wonderful memories.
Thank you Duane. You were the best. 30 Apr 24. Never again to hear that beautiful sound echo live round the theatres. So pleased to have this video.
great show!!! RIP brother Duane ...
In 1958 I became a big Duane Eddy fan. Just 10 yrs. old but I took my first rock n roll guitar lessons from his records. Thanks Duane !
Me too! Even before Hank!

Gilbert in Toronto.
Where did you see Elvis and what date?
You'll just have to make do with this! 53k views can't be wrong! I keep watching it myself. As good as any TV show.
Duane can play just about anything whether jazz, classical or rock and roll. When I was young when playing Duane, the volume was always maxed out.
Thanks for this , I have been a Duane Eddy fan since the 1950's the very first LP I bought was 'Because They Are Young'
Great to see the rock and roll master still got the best sounding guitars of all time keep rockin Duane take care a lifetime fan
A class act. After all these years, how could he fail to be? Many thanks for the post, a real inspiration.
Like so many, early in his career, he forced us to grab a guitar and make music. He's actually a master of several genres as his career continues. My hero! Thanks Duane and mates!
a true living legend,shame i missed this one,stay healthy duane
I wish I had been there. Legend is a much misused term in music but in this man is a true legend.
Missed this but got to the Manchester version. One never to be forgotten.
Wow! He still has it! Didn't know he was still touring! Thank you for this!
MERCI pour cette excellente vidéo, ma jeunesse ( né en 41 Duane en 38 ) et tous mes vinyls , longue vie à Duane Eddy pour le bonheur de tout ceux qui aiment la bonne musique.
My band gigged with Duane and Bill Haley in 1968 at the Albert Hall and Sophia Gardens, Cardiff. A great guy both on and off stage.
Not many memories can compare with that. heaven on earth
Really????
🙂Con, because they're young, me transporta a mi niñez, Duane Eddy, es uno de mis musicos favoritos, siempre es grato escucharlo✌️🇲🇽
Pleased you enjoyed it. I am sad that I probably won't see him live again. But this video and the one in Manchester will make up for that...a bit!
YES , MANY THANKS FOR THIS GREAT SHOW . WE WERE THERE , YES , A GREAT EVENING. WE ONLY SAW DUANE IN LONDON. HOWEVER , WE CAN ENJOY WATCHING AGAIN , MANY THANKS TO YOU . JOHN IN LONDON.

He inspired me to learn guitar, so glad I did, thanks Eddy
Glad to see Bruce Welch , member of the famous guitar band The Shadows as a guest of Duane.
What a Treat! May he Twang forever more. Thanks for sharing.

Well done John I really enjoyed watching your video. Best wishes Michael Parkinson

I Love. Duane eddy music and I love show
Hope you enjoyed the video.

So weird to see Duane without his orange G6120......still sounds great though.
Duane Eddy and The Ventures taught millions of kids to play the guitar.
The very 1st music concert I went to was in April 1960 at the Odeon Theatre, Oxford Road, Manchester, England. The package tour was Clyde McPhatter, Bobby Darin, Emile Ford and the Checkmates and, of course, tbe great Duane Eddy.
I saw that same line up in 1960 at Leicester De Montfort Hall...from the front row! A night I still treasure.
@@r4ndym4n I saw the same line-up, minus Bobby Darin, at the Guildford Odeon, Surrey
Nice, he plays a Gretsch White Falcon now. He wanted one in the 50s but it cost too much so he bought in trade in for a Gibson Goldtop for his famous Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins.
I didn't know Duane Eddy was playing there, I have many of his 45 EPs, grat twang guitar player.
My dad is the saxophonist ehre 🎉
well, that's funny he is my Dad too. spooky.
Waiting for tickets for 2020 nothing yet
excellent, I am a sax player too, they sound great together
cant believe Peter Gunn don't show your dad doing full song , grrrrr
whats your dads name? Think ive seen him in other bands
Brilliant !!!
thanks
He's 80 now and still a handsome hunk of man!
And he was for equal rights for all people way back when he refused to enter the white only door of a Greyhound bus station diner seperate from his black friend.He lost his apetite and went back in the bus in anger and disbelief. There were no such rules in Arizona where he grew up.
Qué chingón músico!
Great stuff
Playing a Gretsch White Falcon.
Exelent!! Because thei'r young , my favorite.
Incredibl!! that sax souds like the original, great.
80 year old playing like a 20 year old...man's a genius musician simple as that.
Hi, do you have the full video for this as I'm trying to get hold of the CD sold at the palladium to see if I can sync up the CD sound with your videos......Cheers R.
I publish all I video.
Well said Duane, best county in England is Derbyshire, and your always welcome
Giù il cappello grande Eddy.
Total respect for Duane. The guy is a fucking legend!
lets hope hes still able to...😉
Good to see Bob Harris doing well
Starting at 56:31 is my favorite song. Rebel Rouser.
What happened to KOMMOTION & TRAMBONE? They were on the set list.
Kommotion on my Manchester video, especially for you.
Yes, Kommotion is the best!?
must say I prefer the guild 500 with the DeArmondes. Much denser tone
I didn't know Harris was a country fan. 🤔?.
He has still got what it takes to be a great guitarist, just wondering if he entertained at some of the army service clubs?
Yes, Wayne toured military service clubs. I saw him do a solo show at an enlisted men’s club at Andrews Barracks in West Berlin in 1968. I was an officer and had to sneak in.
Can somebody explain the shape of the Inlays on Eddy’s Guitar? They look like the front of the Alamo.
Gretsch 'Hump Block' inlays.
Gretsch started with block inlays, then in about 1957 went to hump block inlays...basically a block with a hump. A year later in 1958 they switched to thumb nail inlays.

Wow, looks like he's still using 12 gauge strings or something like that.
Nah they look like 10s at the most

It's in focus on my TV!

a great man spoilt by the bad camera work. and sound system.
I think you forget that cameras would have been stopped if noticed. So it was done surreptitiously. The Manchester show is darker and poorer from that point of view, but at least it is a record of his final two shows in the UK, and that's priceless.
Who is this Richard something? He sucks. Never heard a deader Memphis.
