This is the incredible Gatton in prime form doing one of his often played medleys. It was the last tune in this set before the one final encore which I have posted already - Seven Come Eleven.

Trust me, the microphone on the camera doesn't do it justice as to what it actually sounded like live. Danny Gatton was one of those prodigies that only come around every 500 years or so. He was the Mozart of the Telecaster. The Beethoven of Redneck Jazz. The Paganini of Swing. The Tchaikovsky of Blues. He was....Simply the best.

Really bad mix!!! It is such a treat to hear Danny, but as is most geniuses luck it sounds like a mess through no fault of the genius. Yes, the camera Mic is terrible of course. It will be impossible to remix this to make it at least passable...there are no tracks to play with, just the one big rotten track that we hear. If there are any young guitar players listening, PLEASE go find other Danny videos and recordings. He is simply amazing. Please don't judge him by this mess. Sorry Danny, we love you man and miss you like crazy. RIP

Danny was a friend of mine and the suicide was real he went the same age of one of his heros Roy Buchanan due to his label dropping him after signing a 5 record contract but only did cruisin deuces.88 Elmira st was nominated for a Grammy award for best rock instrumental against the likes of Eric Johnson,Rush etc...he was the best guitar player I ever seen,no effects but a old tape Echo-Plex.saw him 36 times amazing and truly missed.R.I.P

Saw Danny Gatton 34 times myself and yes he was robbed of the Grammy. His blue note album showed the talent he played with Joshua Redman, Roy Hargrove etc. As a Maryland native he was the best guitar player I've ever seen also.

well it's always subjective but I've seen all those naturals play up close--I had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with Shawn Lane and he was a musical genius,. But no live show affected me the way Danny did-- he was simply on another planet completely, just a huge range of styles and effortless playing. He's hands down the 'greatest' i've seen--and i've seen hundreds.
