Duane Eddy and The Rebels

Post by livinluvin72 » Mon Feb 14, 2022 5:37 pm

I just finished listening to your Talkin' Blues podcast where you mention how you decided to be a musician after seeing Duane Eddy and The Rebels at a movie theatre in Phoenix between flicks.

I've heard you say this before and I'd heard of Duane Eddy, but I don't think I remember ever having seen them perform so I found an old video of them going back far enough where it might have been something a young Dennis would have seen.

Well, this is a bit sappy compared to the excitement of the band actually playing live but that is one of the songs they played at the Fox Theater.

Was that Dick Clark introducing the Band?

Gone are the days when a forklift driver could hoist performers and carry them through a packed house. There's probably a reason for that.
