Hank Garland
+ You probably heard (read) that country/jazz guitar legend died last december 28.
+ There are a lot of pages that will tell you his story: part wonderful, part sad.
+ Maybe someone will know about his car accident. Was it a murder attempt?. Is there any info around?. One spanish paperwriter (big old Diego A. Manrique) just comments that possibility (El País, 7 enero 2005).
+ What today counts, at least in this blog, is listening to his music:
* Listen to his first hit: Sugarfoot Rag.
* The guitar intro to jingle bell rock was his composition. Here you can hear it (kinda) in a George Strait cover.
* John B. Sebastian, head of The Lovin' Spoonful, talked about him and the other A-Team guys of Nashville studios in nashville cats.
* Also, he contributed to Elvis' little sister.
* And the opening notes to Patsy Cline's I Fall To Pieces.
+ As I have said other times, loor y gloria a los pioneros!.
