Tuck Andress, inheritor of the George Van Eps legacy


Recommended Posts

I was abt to post this into "What's In Yer Ears"

but heck, this cat,

a long-time fave who I sometimes forget,

deserves wider recognition & a discussion of his own here.

Tuck izz tha bomb, to use the vernacular o' tha yutes. ;)

 

He's a delightfully fun and clever player with chops to disprove the limits of the impossible.

Ask yourself- What Would Ren and Stimpy Do?

Tuck Andress is great! I really liked his performance of Europa...the last vid would not come up, but I heard enough to know he is exceptional... :cool:

The poster at YTube blocked displays on 3rd party sites but if you click the vid 's button it will take you to YT to view the clip.

 

Tuck's a master alright

---& not just for his chops but for his interpretive skillls (dig their Hendrix cover !)---

& he's been around for ages both as a solo & w/wife Patti.

He was covered long ago in GP but he seems to lack a certain self-promotional zeal....

like I said I even forget abt him for great lengths of time.

 

That's not the way it should be !

Thanks D, I got it and it was an interesting commentary. Another guy I love to hear "wack on the guitar" (like he said his nephew does), is Tommy Emmanuel. I used to do something like it on the electric guitar slapping my strings while chording, but nothing even close to these guys. Tuck really does it right! :thu:

 

Here's Tommy:
