Every bit the genius that was Lenny Breau. Each time I think I've discovered the most outrageous clip of DG, I find another dredged up from the bottomless well of guitar artistry that was Danny Gatton. Did the 2 of them ever record anything together ??
@washit1st I believe that there is a bootleg of Danny and Lenny playing together at the Cellar Door.... but I heard a DG enthusiast say how disappointing a show it was owing to the fact that Lenny was drunk during the gig.
This is not a "Flatt & Scruggs" tune, it was a jazz standard written (or at least copyrighted & published) in 1922 by Leon Roppolo, Paul Mares and Elmer Schoebel of the New Orleans Rhythm Kings, with lyrics later put to it by George Brunies. (Elmer Schoebel published "Bugle Call Rag", another Scruggs banjo classic that same year.)

I can hear the Les Paul influence, and some of those licks are in Fandango. Danny absolutely floors me.
