Editorial Reviews

Duane Eddy was America’s first bona-fide rock ‘n’ roll guitar hero. In the late fifties, he hit the pop parade by storm with his distinctively low, twangy riffs and growling whammy bar. He is the number one rock ‘n’ roll instrumentalist of all time and is also considered – along with Chuck Berry – as one of the men most responsible for popularizing the electric rock guitar. All original classic recordings, including "Rebel-’Rouser" and his signature track "Peter Gunn"! Every song a chart hit with seven twangy Top 40 pop smashes! --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Duane Eddy Sings, September 8, 2009

This CD is well worth the cost for 2 of the songs alone. Track #12 "Break My Mind" and track #13 "Loving Bird. These songs were released in 1969 on a single for CBS. They were promoted with the Legend "Duane Eddy's first-ever vocal single". Another keeper is "Son Of A Guitar Man" sung by Deed Abbate (Mrs Duane Eddy). Go to YouTube to see Duane and Deed Eddy perform this fine song together.
Look for an all new release by Duane Eddy this year. It's called "Road Trip" and it was produced by Richard Hawley in England.
Release date is April, 2011.

This Cd contains the only song that Duane's wife ever did with him and is one of the greatest songs of Duane's while it was early in his career the sound is all his and not one that can be played differently a true DE and with Deed Eddy singing vocal makes it it a treasure

A dud, the 14th or so (and hopefully last) rerecordings of classics originally on Jamie, etc.; the once great legend with a few bar-band backups and slowed down to match the poor recording venue. Plenty of originals and even rerecordings far better.
