Eveybody dies and Duane Eddy now has at 86.
He was the first rock artist I ever saw live in the early 1960s and the last I saw in Manchester in October 2018. The first 45 I owned was by Duane Eddy, I didn't have a record player but I had a Duane Eddy single. This was Some Kinda Earthquake which at 1 min 17 sec is the shortest record ever to reach the US Billboard Top 40. London-American who issued the record in the UK (HLW9007) in December 1959 was so embarrassed they repeated the ending to make it last a little longer and it made #12 in the UK. I have both versions and the London-American version is better. Oh and I also have an alternative dub which was not released until 2006 (in America).
Eddy was never a great technician and owed an awful lot to Lee Hazlewood but he did make the electric guitar the instrument of heroes and inspired every would-be-guitar-hero of the 1960s and beyond.
Needless to say I have every track he ever recorded for his first label, Jamie (of Philadelphia). He didn't record much of worth after he left Jamie, initially for RCA, but that didn't matter because by then he had changed music forever and how many people do that?
Anyway tonight I feel a little older.
