  • It's actually Paul Burlison on the lead here..he probably first heard this fuzz/distortion sound playing with Howlin Wolf and his band on a West Memphis radio show..G. Martin did play with Paul Burlison on many of the Nashville cuts, and actually two guitars on many of the Nashville cuts..including "Train Kept Rollin"..

  • @dogkelp Thanks, Kelp!

  • @diuga1

    Nope. Big Joe Turner did it three years earlier.

  • sounds exactly like his train kep rollin

  • Is this the original version of this song?

  • @Quentinou66 It's not made this way, but you can reproduce it.

  • The fuzzy sound is made by raising the pole piece on the pickup (a P-90) under the deep E string. That's some 1950's heavy metal :).

  • I remember Th Johnny Burnette Trio on th Ted Mack Original Amateur Hour. They then made several appearences on Arthur Godfreys show.

  • @Smudgefizz You can find the session log by googling 'Burnette Discography'.It's the first result.Gives the log from Bradley's Film and Recording Studio.All the lead is Grady Martin.Credits Burlison with second guitar on, I think, two songs.

    Burlison was a hopeless guitar player-watch the live version of 'Hound Dog' from the Ted Mack Show-it's also on YouTube.

  • @TheSnidge I read somewhere there’s no original studio log for that recording, or it's long lost. Sorry I can't be more specific, I can't find where I read that. But maybe u can give an online reference for the session log u mention. If it's the "session log" from Vince Gordon's article (the site u plug), that “log” was only compiled by Vince based on his “research” & opinion, not from any original studio log source. He even admits it’s probably not entirely accurate. Read it again.
