Duane Eddy is a true legend of rock 'n' roll history, and his music is a pure treasure for any fan of the genre. This guy from Arizona practically invented a whole new way of playing the electric guitar, and his songs helped define the sound of the late 1950s and early 1960s. He used a big, hollow-body Gretsch guitar, and his sound was all about twangy, echo-soaked riffs and catchy melodies you can't shake loose.
