With the Old Top on a Winter Break, I thought someone should pickup the slack. My knowledge of mediocre British guitar players that were born about a hundred years ago is not that extensive, but I can share with you fifteen minutes of pure art set to the best genre busting melody since Abbey Road........

For March's installment of this fine thread, I want to try to appease some of the more rural crowd of this fine website and bring you Orville Peck.

The cowboy gear and slide guitar scream country & western, but the more I listen to him...the more he reminds me of the late great Roy Orbison.

So get out your Wranglers and Coors Banquet and enjoy!

I don't know where you got the idea that there is a slide guitar in that clip you posted

1...Roy Orbison didn't play slide or even use a slide in any of his songs that I can remember, but it's possible. Now watch someone go find one..lol
2...There is no slide guitar that I can hear in that clip you played.
3...If anything, that guitar playing just might be a baritone guitar or one tuned below normal tuning. It is definitely a Gretsch of some kind as they have a distinct sound, especially when coupled with heavier gauge strings on the lower ones

See Duane Eddy

Fair enough, that line should have read more like "slide guitar riff" because there is a riff early on that has that familiar slide "twang".

I did not mean to imply that band has a proper "slide guitarist".

The Orbison comparison is about the vocals. Similar sound, range and even writing style.

Yes..I did like it. I always envied guys who could play that style guitar..I never could master it. I play it half assed. I got locked into blues, and never left.
I know a couple of guys who can play country guitar, and they can't play blues worth a shit.

The 2 techniques are so different that learning one almost hinders the other .

I celebrate his entire catalog. He's a great country artist and even bigots love his music until they find out he is more homo than Elton John.

Strange for a racist to have 3 black players in his band... You like to lie on people when drunk

You still have that guitar with the broken neck?

Orville Peck sounds throwback af but kills it vocally so much that it sounds fresh. Has a sorta David lynch vibe to his sound too. Love the guy, his songs might be about loving other dudes but Love is Love and music is Love ❤️
