My 40 years of enjoying Duane Eddy........2002-10-10

The early 60's I started listening to Duane Eddy. The guitar sound of his always stirs my emotions and you become a part of the sound.
I am a fan of the steel guitar. Duane Eddy's combination of the guitar, Floyd Cramer piano style and the steel guitar, and the selection of classic country favorites, make for an a mini concert that takes a person into another dimension. A 5 plus star cd.
P.S. Have you heard the early Dave Clark 5 rendition of "I Walk The Line"? He styled this recording in the Duane Eddy sound. About 1960, I think. ...

"Golden Hits" - 3 stars. "Country Songs" - 5 stars.......2001-10-20

"Rebel Rouser" and "Raunchy" are great songs and have aged very well with the Duane Eddy Twang. "Shangri-La" is almost painful to hear and "Theme From A Summer Place" and "More" were not written to be performed by Duane Eddy.

The country songs are all top notch. "Suger Foot Rag", Fireball Mail", "Wildwood Flower" and the hauntingly beautiful Hank Williams song, "Weary Blues (From Waiting)" sound just as fresh as when I bought this record years ago.

You don't have to be a country fan.......2001-07-17

No, you don't. After his Jamie period, Duane joined RCA and it resulted in a bunch of superb albums. These two belong definitively to this category. I love them both, but my absolute favorite is the early 60-ties Nashville sound of "Twangin'Country Song". All my favourite Nashville musicians are there to help Duane to make this album a gem. And they succeed, no question about that. All the tunes are great but some are played so beautifully they seem out of this world. No need to say more - you like Duane Eddy, you'll love this CD.

Classic Guitar.......2000-08-24

I use to listen to Twangin, the golden hits a lot growing up. This CD is a combination of two CDs; Twangin' the Golden Hits and Twang A Country Song. The first album is clearly in the rock an roll style. Many of the tracks have piano and sax back-up. Duane Eddy does a spirited rendition of "Rebel Rouser" as well as other classics such as "Tequilla" and "More". He also does beautiful rendition of "A Summer Place" and "Stranger on the Shore (which is probably the prettiest track on the Album. Twang a country song is distinctly country in style with the use of fiddles, steel guitar and background vocals. This album contains a wide variety of classics from "wildwood flower" to "Have you ever been lonely" to "crazy Arms". I have listened to this CD several times its a real classic. This is definitely one of my favorite CDs.
