A great guitarist most people don't even know

Saw him in Sharks in 1974, opening for Roxy Music.

Saw him a few years ago, IN Roxy Music.

Caught a few shows over the years backing Robert Gordon.

Great guitarist.







But the guy I really want to mention is Donnie "The Twangler" Roberts, formerly with Webb Wilder and the Beatnecks. Really hot guitar work.

...and the more I try and listen to and learn from him, I keep coming up with Danny Gatton.

 

That kind of talent deserved success outside of the guitar world i.e. commercial success.

 

I think it's difficult sometimes for us (the guitar players of the world) to put it into perspective because of all the guitar mag coverage he eventually got, but he truely was "unknown" to the average music fan and that's tragic.
