OT: band you've never posted before

[meyers7]

Most of the bands I listen to I've posted in one or the other music threads over the years. But I think I found one (newer, newer to me anyway) that I haven't.

Song about his family....I think.

'94 - Hunter Root

 

[Sifaka]

A gem from 1956, with a spartan, young Bill Evans…

 

[Bigboote]

Well, I can’t post the Shaggs or Wild Man Fisher because I’d have to bust myself. The next best/worst could be Daniel Johnston, a SoCal guy who self-released a bunch of cassettes that drew a lot of attention from musicians and almost none from the public. I discovered him when Tom Waits recorded this song.

The guitar in sledog's post brought Danny Gatton to mind. He was a great guitarist, taken from us at the age of 49. He did a lot of country and rockabilly, but was equally adept at rock and jazz. He did a great guitar version of the Simpsons theme, but this is some club footage from a few years before he died.

Things are leaning a bit guitar-centric so I think this will be ok.
I am not qualified to judge anyone's musical skills, I just know what appeals to me. I like melodic over fretboard gymnastics.
Just personal taste.
Andy Wood - Shoot The Sun Down
From what I can gather, Mr Wood teaches as well as plays. Whenever I've seen him interviewed he seems very humble and down to earth.
