Danny Gatton Saturday Morning Show 'Three' w/Interview

[yourtreat2]

The Tele is not a Strat. It is entirely unique. It's a guitar that is well suited for specific techniques, many of which are unlike plating any other guitar, although those techniques can be used on other guitars.

Gatton was an unrecognized Tele-Guru, able to adapt the Tele & his style to play many forms of music. He was unique in his ability & knowledge of Jazz, Rock, etc.

The Tele through a Marshal in the wrong hands is deadly.

The treble will blow your ear drums out. It's painful..

[crozzara]

Awesome! I love Gatton style and his band!

The interviewer was'nt to bad at all had Danny laughing pretty good.I think this was 1992 after 88 Elmira and just before Crusing Deuces .

[hannababalon]

"drop into Nashville , we'll pay ya scale" LOL! I thought the interviewer seemed genuinely taken with Danny, and Danny seemed to appreciate the guy's humor...great performance..

[designermite]

Sweet

[MitchTenderness]

one of the coolest things about danny is that he loves music something a lot of players lose in their quest for technical greatness. i also love these interviews this is really tickling me.

[xchekker94]

Happy 64th birthday Danny. Man do we ever miss you.

[montrose1973]

why does that guy even have a mic in his hand

[MitchTenderness]

um, that guy is awesome. Danny seems to like him.

[montrose1973]

i wasnt insulting the guy it was just funny that he has a mic in his hand because if you'll notice he isnt even talking into it hahaha. im pretty sure its a prop

[MitchTenderness]

ok cool. that is funny. didn't mean to get nasty this is just so great. i love you.

[steviebotss]

@montrose1973 the mic is for danny to talk into

[ChevroletCaprice9C1]

Looks like Chis white the saxophone..

[sexylefty]

the best guitar ever

[IncorruptibleTruth]

One of them.

[gattonmaster]

bingo

[JDtheMusicMan]

Danny's playing was great, as always. This video was different though because you get a chance to hear Danny talking some. It was something different. Thanks for uploading it. I'm saving it.

[05rsx]

someone slap that interviewer if you see him on the street ty

[dieselpuppy74]

I'd pay to have that privilege!

[dieselpuppy74]

Once referred to as "The greatest guitarist that the world has never known" - Danny Gatton is proof that the brightest flames often burn the quickest.

No decent guitar enthusiast should be without a copy of "88 Elmira Street" - if not, go get a copy now!!

RIP: Danny Gatton 1945 - 1994

[TexasTele1983]

88 elmira street cannot hold a candle to "The Humbler". I think most of his live work was way better than the over production of some of the records. "The Way I Walk" is perhaps one of the meanest sounding songs ever(complete with beer bottle solo).

[lolbutsrsly]

@dieselpuppy74 .. well said man, danny gatton was one of a kind and he can't be comparred really to anyone else.. his style was his own, probably why u can get a danny gatton model... i have all of his music, and its all great, he wasnt like those other bands who make 1 good album and 5 terrible albums tryin to live off old fame, he was awesome till he died, and not to sound crazy here, but.. picking your own time of death is kind of awesome in its own right, even though i wish he didnt do it..

[UncleStoney]

What year is this from? Just curious

[MasterCollecter]

1993. mastercollector

[Perezco]

Danny is as always, aweinspiring and great. But that guy is a douche(not Danny, the interviewer). He just goes off and talks about how great different other guitarists are. D-bag by merit.

[MasterCollecter]

Agree, that guy should take the time and really hear all of Gattons prime!! mastercollector

[robotey1]

Ha! You're right, Norm Ray (the announcer) had NO CLUE who Danny was. I'm the other guitar player on that show & I must say that good old Norm was clueless a lot of the time. He was the kind of guy who was always looking over your shoulder when he was talking to you to see if someone more important was around that he should be talking to. Believe it or not though, we had fun with him. Oh, and the blonde was Carlin Evans - her own biggest fan.

[WolfgangEdison]

Thanks! Far out!

Danny's burnin' up a telecaster in heaven - maybe jammin with Roy.

Pretty good camera work - lets you see how he makes one guitar sound like 3!

Cool. RRO
