Guitar wizard, Jimmy Bryant and Steel Guitar Genius, Julian Tharpe, backing up vocalist Greg Allen on a Patti Allen tune, "The Good Life". Produced 1976 by Dave A. Burley. For more great steel guitar jazz, visit www.SteelGuitarJazz.com
Julian offered to teach me to play steel when I was 12 at the time and didn't have a steel guitar. If I could go back I would've mowed every yard in the city until I had the money to buy one. He was beyond gifted.
thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I can't wait to let my dad here this, he has Julian on cassette tapes and some albums, but he will be tickle to death hear Julian play.
omg, i can't believe i actually found julian tharpe playing!!!! he is awesome, i knew him as a kid, my dad, Johnny Temple owns julians 14string JET show bud. Julian taught him how to play. There will NEVER be another Julian or even close. He was out of this world on that steel!!
