haha,I’m from D.C...saw Danny Gatton play locally at least 50 times; one of my all-time favs. His blazing guitar riffs were amazing, yet he never seemed as if he was straining like a lot of great guitarists...you woulda thought he was reading the newspaper! Hard to believe Danny never really went national, but stayed, for the most part, a local sensation. Especially loved when he played with Tom Principato (in Blazing Stratocasters?) So many great albums, but Redneck Jazz - the one pressed in red vinyl - is my all-time favorite. Shame he died an early tragic death.
Lucky you...Danny was the man for sure...he had the biggest bag of licks and tricks of any guitarist i know of...it just flowed endlessly...I’m sure you can attest to that. RIP Danny....The greats are usually troubled...Don’t know why.
