Music reviews of Tiffany 5

Music Review: A tribute to Junior Barnard get the tiffanies for him
Rating: 5 Stars

Barnard was the real precursor of modern rock and rockabilly guitar playing. He set up his guitar in his own way with a DeArmond pickup and a pickup from a steel guitar, wired out of phase. He was one of the first to use a volume pedal. His though he had modified acoustic jazz guitars to electrify them, Junior's guitar almost always sounded like a solid body electric, not like an electric jazz guitar.
Thankfully, lots of Junior's work was recorded on the Tiffany recordings--in fact they ought to put out a best of Junior Barnard. On this CD listen in astonishment to the original version of the Fat Boy Rag (Junior wayed 230 pounds at his lightest!)which snarls and twists and bites and cuts like something the Allman brothers would not be ashamed of, or listen to the way he bends and scratches out the slow blues feel of Don't Cry Baby and Sweet Kind of love.
Just writing about it makes it sounds so good, I almost started to buy it, even though I have had this stuff since it first came out years ago.
