Great news for cool guitarists with real good taste in music, the tabs of two fine Deke's originals are now avalaible on the web: Nightmare Of A Woman What's That Cooking? Moreover, Guitartabmaker uses an illustrative clip of barbillafonic, one of the Deke-O-Rama's YouTube usernames.
Emulating the legendary guitar duels of Joe Maphis with Larry Collins, here are Deke Dickerson with Cousin Kenny Vaughan at The Marty Stuart TV Show playing an spectacular version of the old Collins/Maphis' tune "The Early American".
Deke on Facebook about this: "Scotty Moore called and left a message today congratulating me on the Marty Stuart TV show that aired yesterday. Scotty Moore! Holy crap! I may not be rich, but in my book I can't imagine anything cooler than that. I guess in a weird way I've made it!!" - AMEN -
Maybe this great work will not win the News & Documentary Emmy Award, or the MTV Movie Award, but you can be sure that the Deke Dickerson Tour Documentary 2011 has been the most exciting and funny in many time.
Also it has led us to discover how a new star is born for the musical industry: Cialis, The Rockabilly Gorilla, the new real lady killin’ papa on the Ecco-fonics’ line-up.
We are quite anxious waiting for the next Untamed Youth's spanish tour . But fortunately we have the help of the legendary Art Fein, who has shared this descriptive clip of the first Untamed Youth's LA appearance in september 1990 at the Anti-club. The sound of the footage doesn't kill, but the rage is in.
A couple of years ago, celebrating the build of a real letal weapon to fight against the warriors of the low colesterol diets, The Go-Nuts visited the Monster Garage. A cop car converted in a rolling donut factory! Wow! An absolutely top complement for powered artifacts like the Nutwaggon or the atomic Nut-Bot 9000 giant robot.
Robin: Hey Batman... what guitar could be the best to play The Batman Theme? Batman: A Halmark Wing-Bat guitar, for sure. Robin: Holy strings! And... where in the world could be the best place to play The Batman Theme with the one and only Hallmark Wing-Bat guitar? Batman: The truly Batmobile created by Mr. George Barris himself, with no doubt. Robin: Holy convertible...! But how can you be so sure, Batman? Batman: I really can, my friend. Earth movement is an inexact science at best. And... Robin, can you tell me who could be the best superguitar-hero to play The Batman Theme in the real original Batmobile? Robin: Oh Batman!... Is there any man that could see the Bat Signal and play it for us??? Batman: Yes, Robin... There's a Man in the world... The One and Only MR. ENTERTAINMENT!!! Robin: Gosh, Batman... is there anything you don't know? Batman: Oh... yes, Robin. Several things in fact. But... IN THE END, VERACITY AND RECTITUDE ALWAYS TRIUMPH. More pics of the amazing Wing-Bat guitar
One of the best moments of our life. Deke has open his old memory chest and has just begun to share clips at YouTube as incredibles as this: Here he is playing with the original Lefty Frizzell's Bigsby Guitar, one of our all time favourite tunes, "Just can't live that fast, anymore".
Deke Dickerson says about the clip: Trying to do justice to the greatest honky-tonk singer of all time...I got to play Lefty Frizzell's original Gibson SJ-200 with Bigsby neck. I was scared to death--not only because of how much the guitar sold for, but also because Lefty Frizzell's ghost is in there...very scary. Merle Haggard bought the guitar--and I would like to apologize to Merle here for putting a 400 dollar pick scratch on the pickguard. Thanks to Retrofret in Brooklyn for letting me play Lefty's guitar while it was in their possession.
has anybody ever thought that Deke Dickerson and The Donut Prince was the same guy???? INCORRECT... This X-File confirms that Deke is not the Clark Kent of The Donut Prince...
