Cool!
Now I know what those old-timey tall, skinny, rectangular bars were good for. |

That looks like one of the National Aluminimum's.
That Move is amazingly Great.
I've heard so many of those sounds - later by a number of the Greatest Players.
These sounds were also heard in numerous Movie and Cartoon sound tracks.
I wonder if Roy Smeck was the original influence?
This guy's hand techniques are Spot On Excellent too.
Thanks Andy for Sharing this important visual-audio.  |

Noel Boggs and Freddie Tavaras both had Hollywood studio gigs as sound effects makers on their instruments. Am I remembering correctly that Freddie played the famous steel gliss used at the head of Warner Brothers cartoons? Forumites Chas Smith and Gary Brandin continue this proud tradition.

It takes a lot of talent to produce all those sound effects. How many of us could replicate this act?  |

Maybe none on the SGF, but Bobby Ingano can do all that beter and in a nicer tone without the overdose of corn, much like the great Feet Rogers doing Old McDonald's Farm. |

Maybe, but Al had the idea almost 80 years before. And in truth, this stuff goes waaay back: http://www.loc.gov/jukebox/recordings/detail/id/335/autoplay/true/
I played the Kayton clip and my dog, Rumba, went nuts. So the Wolf imitation fooled a small section of the audience.
