No Chip is not back, Ray. I only re- opened his topic.
I also wish he would come back. _________________ Fender Kingman, Sierra Crown D-10, Evans Amplifier, Soup Cube. |

Clarence has been credited on some Gosdin sessions that were Carl Walden on dobro, their "Hangin' On" 45 is all Carl and pre-dates Clarence joining the Gary Paxton stable of session cats. _________________ Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly. |

Although I might add, Clarence was involved with the Gosdins prior to the Paxton - Bakersfield International deal, and played on the sessions that became their Capitol LP via a deal with Paxton. _________________ Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly. |

Jason, in the linernotes to "Tuff And Stringy" it is stated that Clarence played the flamenco- styled lead on guitar and finger dobro on "Hangin' On". Do I understand you right that this not true?

Just re-checked my interview notes with Carl, the Hangin' On session included both Carl and Clarence, guitar by Clarence, dobro by Carl.
Here's where I made my mistake and mixed up a couple of details.
Carl, unlike Clarence was on some of the earlier Gib Guilbeau sessions that ended up on his Alshire LP, although Clarence and Carl were apparently both on the sessions for "Sweet Sussanah", etc... basically the same band as "Hangin' On" and other Gib recordings which made it to the Alshire set.
I did re-check with Carl when the Ace reissues of the Paxton masters were complied, as I'd read the linernotes to "Tuff And Stringy" and noticed the same thing you asked.

Thanks Will! "Talk Back Trembling Lips" is such a nice song. I fear the worst about Chip. _________________ Fender Kingman, Sierra Crown D-10, Evans Amplifier, Soup Cube. |

Just found this thread. I first became aware of Clarence's playing on the Arlo Guthrie song, "Coming into Los Angeles." I thought it was a pedal steel guitar and I mentioned it to a PSG playing friend who straightened me out. But I started collecting everything I could find with Clarence on it. I play nothing like him, but he's still one of my favorite guitarists.
One of my favorite things he did was the song "Just a Season" on the Byrds Untitled album. The interplay between McGuinn's 12 string and Clarence's Tele is just perfect.
When he was with the David Grisman Quintet, Tony Rice let me play Clarence's D-28. Had I known at the time it had been Clarence's guitar, I think I would have fainted.
I'm going to have to dig out my Byrds CD's and go on a Clarence binge. |
