- Here is my version of "Valley of Sioux" by the Outlaws
a little bit different from the original, it is more in the style of The Shads. I hope you enjoy it.
Backing track can be purchased from here suaragitar.band...
Incredible!! Yet another masterclass of how it shouldbe done!! Virtuoso performance!! Bravo!!
This is a great tune recorded by my good friend Billy Kuy,original Outlaws lead guitarist. Very well played Robby and a great sound.
I think Bill Kuy was as superb as any famous lead guitarist of the rock instrumental genre (including Hank Marvin, of course.) But what actually happened to Bill after he left the Outlaws so abruptly? I have not been able to find any information at all.
@@Kanassatego When Bill left the Outlaws he became the lead guitarist with the Innocents touring with the Rolling Stones and backing artists like Jet Harris,Billy Davis,John Leyton,Mike Sarne etc. You can see him on the 1964 NME Wembley poll winners concert backing Jet Harris on RUclips,the band is the Innocents.
Bill has not long turned 80 but not in the best of health,he hasn't picked hes guitar up for sometime now.
He certainly was a great guitarist in hes time,up there with the best of guitarists.Robby makes a great cover of this tune off the album Dream Of The West.
@@victorfarthing4516 I really appreciate your response and will now try to get more info about him. If you are in touch with Bill, maybe you could tell him that, first of all, I wish him the best of health. Also make sure to let him know that I was absolutely enchanted by his solo on the incredible track "Husky Team." I have listened to him play the solo hundreds of time and decided to record my cover of this magical instrumental. (I am not a pro musician and it took me over half a year to learn it enough to do a RUclips cover. If you're interested, I will send you a link.) And all this is happening when I am already 70. Until I first heard the Outlaws play "Husky Team," I had been firmly convinced that "Apache" by the Shadows would forever remain my most favorite rock instrumental of the 1960. But it's not so any more.
@@Kanassatego Kaz I'd love to hear your cover of Husky Team. Please send me the link. When I next see Bill I will pass your message on. If your on Facebook send Bill a friends request. Hes profile name is William Kuy! Regards Vic.
@@victorfarthing4516 Dear Vic,
The idiom is: “you have made my day.” But it is a mediocre understatement. I never thought I might actually have a chance to write to Bill and to express my gratitude for the inspiration he has been for me.
I’d like to say more, but first I have to take you up on your offer to contact Bill via Facebook.
Below I attach the link to my cover.
You need to know a few facts, though. As I said, I am 70. Although I did try to learn a few riffs when I was in college in Poland, I actually never seriously began to play electric guitar until 2014. That year I happened to attend a horse camp in Canada. A Canadian woman challenged me to play a Polish song. She was very good at singing and playing Canadian songs. I was a total disappointment: I couldn’t play anything. So when I went back home (which, by the way, is Albuquerque in New Mexico), I decided that it was the last call for me to return to my unfulfilled passion from my college days. I have always been enchanted by instrumental rock songs. For some very strange, irritating reason, the Outlaws have mostly escaped my attention. Until now. When I heard “Husky Team” last summer, I became fascinated by the way the lead guitarist, Bill Kuy, plays the solo. It is pure magic.
Anyhow, right after I got back from the Canadian horse camp, I bought an Epiphone guitar, a Fender amplifier and began to self-teach frantically and furiously. I played several hours a day and made an awful number of errors, but I persisted. It took me half a year (since July last year to last Christmas) to learn “Husky Team” enough to try to do a cover. It is far from perfect but one has to be realistic: I know my limits as an old man who just isn’t gifted to become a professional player.
Anyhow, Vic, here’s the link. And please don’t shoot the guitar player: he is doing the absolute best he can do. (It took me about 15 times to do this cover, and it is still far short of my expectations.)
My best from the Land of the Apache, the last free Americans,
Kaz (Maybe we could switch to email?)

the best version i hear so far, well done
Beautiful and evocative track from an accomplished musician.
This page rolled over from a previous song & my first thoughts were "Oh NO" not another poor amateur, but something kept me listening & I have to say that it was great. Well done you. :-)
No words....Robby...you are unic, you are the best with difference.
Best wishes fron Córdoba, Spain.

Molto bella..... io non conoscevo questa splendida canzone! Un affettuoso saluto da ITALY.
Magic!

George
George Kitching Thanks for watching and your kind words George!
Robby
Incredible … so smooth and sounds like the real versions
Great!
Super played,and a great sound!
I liked this tune a lot, so I looked it up. It was written and produced by the great Joe Meek, which explains why there's a 'Telstar'-like glimmer to the sound.
Love it, FANTASTIC, Well done
Wow ! Very nice rendition Robby .... Thanks for sharing !
Hi Robby,
great sound and lovely BT, the playing is impeccable as always. Well done.

Brilliant, both in sound and performance!

Hi Robby - A great sound and very well played - Not a number I know but you have made a super job of it. Are you using tape wound strings?

Robby, those look like flatwound strings. Is this correct?
I so appreciate your playing and your love of this style. There's nothing better than the clean sound of a guitar. Your channel is a breath of fresh air.
Many thanks Steve! Yes the are flatwounds, they has a unique dull sounds,

Ric Hoffmann Thanks Ric!

Hi, this is THE best version I've heard. I'm learnng it note for note from your video. I have found a number of backing tracks but your's is THE best. Would you be kind enough to let me know where I can get it from please.
Hi, I have never heard of this tune before, you are very fluent in your playing style, very impressive indeed.
Is there a possibility for obtaining the BT. I feel inspired to learn this tune, after seeing you play. Thank you
Very very good .
wow.. amazing good
GREAT JOB :)
please can you tell me the tirant of your string guitar, i use 10/46 and you?
Hello Christian, I use Rotosound 13-54. Echo is TVS3 into a Vox Tonelab. Thanks!
thank you very much, i like your work to the sound who is great sound. friendly
Only thick gauge strings can get that fat vintage tone
Great version. I have the original recording of the Outlaws too.
From which country are you Robby ?
Thanks Alex! I'm from Sydney Australia.
Robby
One of my favourites and wonderful playing Robby !! I've tried the link above for the backing track but an't get it. Do you know if there's anywhere I can purchase it please.
Hi Nigel, thanks for stopping by and your kind words. It’s available here payhip.com/b/RZaI
Robby
Hi Robby, thanks for this lovely song, I am looking to buy a Strat ( red with rosewood fingerboard ) just like yours but I don't know how to choose from the catalog. Can you or anybody please tell me what model do you play this song. Appreciate any help
Pramut Jira Hi Pramut, the strat that I am using here is '62 reissue strat, i think it was made in 1996. Depending in your budget there are many choices out there. Thanks
Robby
Actually, it was ot by the Shadows - although it iis an easy mistake to make The Outlaws wrote and recorded this. I beieve Don Groom, the drummer, wrote it, but maybe it was Billy Kuy
James this tune was not written by Don Groom or Billy Kuy! Actually written by "Duke" which could of been Joe Meek himself under a another name!! However Joe would have a tune in he's head and hum it out of tune,it was then down to the great playing of Billy Kuy to make something out of it. This was also the case with The Tornados and "Telstar" Lots of things happened in that studio back in the day. Joe Meek was a genius and ahead of he's time.
Hi I really love your playing. If you also sold a tab for each backing track I would for sure buy a couple...so let me know if you have tabs Valley of Sioux for example or Gotländsk sommarnatt
Do u know a song called :Is there a cantina in town:???
I didn't know that. Thanks for the information!
Great !!!!
100alamo Thanks!
great great playing. Heard this song a long time ago. Love your tone. Are you playing through any pedals? Where did you get the back track from?
Howard Lieboff Thanks Howard. I use TVS3 echo machine for this tune. I recorded my own backing track.
Robby
suaragitar so just an echo pedal. Then comes to mind what kind of amp are you playing out of? Tube? what brand, because I think its dynamiate. I'm amazed at people who make their own backing tracks. Do you lay down the rhythm guitar part down first and then add drums? the whole process amazes me. you're welcome by the way and thanks for your reply.
Howard Lieboff Hi Howard, there's no actual amp. I used Vox Tonelab amp simulator which does pretty well in simulating box amps. I normally lay down drum beat first with the help of metronome click, then bass and rhythm parts. I hope this makes sense.
Robby
Hi Robby, thanks for the info. very interesting. Never thought to do it that way. Is there a software program you use for recording multi-tracking of drums, bass and rhythm? sorry to be a pain and ask so many questions.
Howard Lieboff Hi Howard, Not a problem at all. I use Pro Tools for recording which an industry standard. Drums are not real drums though, it is a sampled acoustic drum sound triggered unsung a midi controller. I hope this helps
Robby
I thoroughly enjoyed this! Those strings look extremely heavy/thick! Do you plan do upload more The Outlaws tunes or perhaps some tunes by The Tornados?
snarnok they are flatwound strings 12-52 gauge
Well done !
Gillis vg Thanks Gillis!
Mooi gespeeld! Heb jij er 0.12 op zitten?
Bedankt oom Jan!
NICE Robby.
Have you tried Sioux Serenade?
STUART B Thanks Stuart. No I have not done Sioux Serenade yet
