  • I went to see these guys at the cellar Door 3 times once with Buddy Spicher setting in on the fiddle haven't been the same since. I still have my autographed Red album.Legend has it that their agents used this tape to book their act. After Danny passed I ask Buddy about this tape he said he had heard about but had never seen it ,so I made him a copy and gave it to him. Check out the other Danny Gatton videos on our channel. Please subscribe. Thanks Jimmy Hodge

    Wow! What a treat. I went to school in Charlottesville and was lucky enough to see him several times there and 1x in DC around the time the red record came out. It was crazy, but at a couple of those gigs in the summer, maybe 20 people were there. As a young guitarist, my mind was totally blown. Loved when he had Evan Johns in the band who was a great singer and foil for Danny as well as a fierce player in his own right.
