    almost makes me wanna cry when i watch this, as good as he was he shouldve ruled the earth,we need this kind of music and the kind of musician he was,
    honest music from honest musicians,RIP Danny

    Loves how he so effortlessly goes from echo to if it fails echo; starts double pickin'. Damn, he was truly the master of that type of playing. Danny, that style can be used for it all sir!

    Among Telecaster players, Danny is a household name. Far from being underrated, he's revered. Love his playing.

    Danny Gatton hands down is my favorite tele player! Thanks for the legacy you left us Danny!

    massive talent,sorely missed. the countless guitarist he has influenced but still relegated to the unknown to most younger players of today.

    @zthetha: You are so right.. Danny was just a regular guy who happened to be a genius on guitar. He liked hot-rodding cars as much as anything, and probably would have been just as happy wrenching on '57 Chevys as anything music related. I sure am sorry Danny didn't reach out to others when he was down in the dumps, instead of taking his own life. Maybe that way, he'd have know how much people cared about him. The music business is a tough life, and Danny was just one more casualty.

    R.I.P. Danny Gatton!
    after i had purchased my first electric guitar(a butterscotch Telecaster)i was searching for instructions on how to learn to play a wide range of different guitarstyles and found the hotlicks videos with Danny...what a revealation!i was stunned and still am,what this giant of a guitar player was able to teach me even on video.He was not only one of the greatest players i've ever heard,but also a very good instructor,as we can see here for example.What a loss!

  • @zthetha
    @zthetha 15 лет назад +1

    Play these clips over and over and enjoy them more each time - Danny was not only technically superb, musically brilliant and a great teacher but a really nice guy - no pretention. A "regular guy" as I believe the US term goes. Not an atom of the charlatan in him, His premature death was not only a loss to guitarists everywhere and music in general but to the human race.

    The Greatest are ALWAYS the most generous when it comes to sharing their knowledge and talents with the World. ... I had been playing guitar for decades already when I saw Danny four times in Toronto in small clubs and each time I was right at his feet trying to discern SOMETHING from 6 feet away. ... NOT A CHANCE. .... And the Greatest Guitarists in Canada were there so see The Master-- I saw players like Colin James, David Wilcox, Colin Linden and Derry Grehan at his feet, WORSHIPPING THEIR GOD! .... THAT'S why they call him The Humbler. .... (a new documentary about Danny called "The Humbler" is coming ANY TIME NOW. ... I CAN'T WAIT!)

    @MusicEd1 14 лет назад

    What an amazing talent! He played with such taste and his phrasing is to this day in my humble opinion, untouchable. It has always been very hard for me to except the fact the he is not with us anymore and of course the heart breaking reason why. I've always wished that had I been blessed to meet the man when he was alive, that I could have said something, anything to make him realize his own slef worth as a human being. God bless him and his family. Peace.

  • @larrygeetar9309
    @larrygeetar9309 10 лет назад +8

    If he hadn't been so discouraged about his career and the fact that all the great guitar
    players bowed down to him but the public didn't care, he'd still be with us. Same with
    Roy Buchanan. Funny that they came from the same area (Baltimore and D.C.) and
    met the same end. Danny idolized Roy and maybe he figured if Roy couldn't make the
    big time, he never would either. What's ironic is if both of them had just hung in there
    a bit longer, they'd be huge now and widely acknowledged as the masters they were.
    Breathtaking musicians. I'm sure depression and alcohol/drugs won the battles.

    • @hoospie
      @hoospie 9 лет назад +1

      I talked to Gatton once in Richmond during a break in his show, around the time of "88 Elmira St.", and I asked him if he'd learned a lot from Roy, and he acknowledged that he did, but he also said, "But Roy learned a lot from me too." I wish we had talked more, but I was too starstruck and didn't know what to say.

    Guitar player magazine had an issue "Unknown Greats" that had a tear out sheet record--it was Danny doing what he does best playing his ass off--I was an instant fan--I have never stopped singing his praises--pulled me out of a playing slump--truly a sad loss to the music world in his tragic demise--RIP Dan--eternally grateful

    Wow - what a fantastic lesson, on a gorgeous Tele, played by a guy who knows exactly what he's doing. So sorry I hadn't come across Danny Gatton before (we don't get out much in the UK), sounds he had a sad ending - such a shame, obviously a fantastic talent and seems a really really nice guy . Hope he's jamming up there with Buddy and Jimmy and all the other others.

    It's what Danny used to attach his 'magic dingus box' to. The box contained switches to operate his leslie cab, echoplex and phaser effects. He removed it when people assumed he was all about the effects and tricks. Really, as we now know, he had the magic in his hands!

    Absolutely, Gatton is the benchmark for rockabilly guitar playing. One listen of "Nit' Pickin'" off his Unfinished Business album will testify to that.

    I don't recall any such thing as a 'reliced' guitar back then. So it's a genuine, well played, worn in guitar.

  • @MontyCantsin5
    @MontyCantsin5 9 лет назад

    Could someone outline the picking pattern for the chords heard from 2:04 - 2:12? The melody line played on the B and E strings is easy enough to work out but I can't hear clearly what is being played on the lower strings.

  • @trehug6871
    @trehug6871 11 лет назад +1

    at normal speed he's not doubling the finger part but when he explains it slowly he does double the finger part...
    doing syncopated things slowly is such a totally different thing, probably he was just quickly working it out and didn't realize even...
    my ocd went off the chart :) had to re-watch a bunch of times to make sure....because, you know....danny gatton...
