Duane Eddy is one of the most underrated musicians in the world. His arrangements have all stood the test of time - they take me back to the early sixties. Just fabulous!
I have heard that Duane Eddy is the father of modern rock guitar. I believe it. I first heard his music and started listening around 1959 or 1960. I was 5 or 6 years old.
Add the 1950's as well. He was married to Jessie Colter years ago and she married the baddest outlaw in outlaw country music Waylon Jennings and were inseparable until Waylon's death
He doesn't play anything no one else can play, but no one else ever made it sound like that. He doesn't even need the same guitar or amp, he just IS Duane Eddy.
I heard this song for the first time in the Forrest Gump movie and liked it. I played it for my Dad one day he told me that this was one of his father's favorite songs when my dad was a kid. So I went over to.my Grandads house an played it for him. He told he hasn't heard it in over 30 years. Im 49 yrs old now and Granddad has past so when I ever hear this it brings back so manny memories. Thanks for posting. Nj
Duane Eddy was one of Arizona's first rock and roll stars. "The Twang heard 'round the world". It's great to see he''s still going strong after all these years, he is a tremendous guitarist, deserves much more credit than he's received. When I moved to Phoenix in '75 I ate at a popular mex restaurant called La Cucaracha, across the street from Audio Recorders where Duane and many other Arizona musicians recorded their hits.
Been a Duane Eddy fan forever, first record I bought was Peter Gunn and still love it, it was so different from anything at time, never heard any other star have bad word to say about the great man!!
My Favorite Duane Eddy song has always been Forty Miles of Bad Road. That did not stop me from blasting the neighbors with Rebel Rouser when it came on the radio!! My brother used to tell me having me for a little sister was definitely better than Forty Miles of Bad Road... I think it was my first exposure to a left handed compliment... Soundtrack of my youth 🎼🖤
I've never heard - honestly - a guitarplayer like him who works the acoustic so deep downstairs - near a border where the technic reached a border - so to speak. Very great !!! And it always sounds good !!! Unmatched....
Interesting that Duane's music which was just rock n roll and a bit of surf music is now rockabilly. Bottom line: Great music and we are so fortunate to be able to watch/listen to all of this great music fro the past. Thanks to everyone who has contributed...Ed
¡Oh my god my god!, is impossible to hold back the. Oh ! oh. It was a boy in my dominican Republic, I'm marked. Oh! oh. I'm 56 years old. Thanks for everything Duane and Peter from Madrid. Good bless for ever.
Saw Duane Eddy when he was touring Britain in the early 1960's. As good as his records and his sax player was fabulous. Great that he's still going strong.
Duane Eddy and the Ventures are who hooked me line in sinker into the surfin' sound of the '60's. I don't remember my youthful age but I was walking home one evening and passed by the old Retail Clerks''s building in Buena Park, CA when Duane was playing. I think I stood on that street corner listening for close to 45 minutes before resuming my walk home.
First tune I learnt on Guitar bought the nearest copy type guitar i could afford sounds good but he sounds fabulous . Duane Eddy is the king of Twang and a brilliant musician . Don't care what anyone says you cannot emulate that sound and that takes skill👍👍
Before I became a teenager, I had to listen to that record numerous times until I knew it. I think I started playing guitar at the age of 10 or 11 and if you could play rebel Rowser, you was rocking back then buddy.❤😂
That guitar was about the first sound I can remember that began me on the trail of R'nR. I was 9, my cousin 14. He had a guitar and was trying to learn it all. '57/'58...Duane Eddy, Link Wray, Chuck Berry, and then all hell broke loose....
On this day in 1963 {December 28th} "The Son of Rebel Rouser" by Duane Eddy entered the Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart for a two week stay, peaking at #97... Five years earlier on June 24th, 1958 Duane Eddy's original "Rebel Rouser" entered the Top 100; eventually it peaked at #6 and stay on the Top 100 for 14 weeks... Between 1958 and 1963 he had twenty-seven records make the Top 100; with three reaching the Top 10 {his biggest hit was "Because They're Young", it peaked at #4 in 1960}...
Awsome man and great on the guitar. The album i would love to hear is, Lonely guitar , it came out in 1966 or1967. I was overseas when someone had brought it too Germany
I'm 40 and was named after him. My dad played guitar and I love who I was named after! Everytime someone goes to spell my name they start with Dw haha, WRONG! It's Duane!
"Rebel Rouser" es un instrumental del famoso guitarrista estadounidense Duan Eddy que fue publicada en Abril del año 1958. Para los críticos, la técnica y las composiciones de Eddy son tan importantes como el papel que jugó Chuck Berry en darle rienda suelta al Rock and roll en estado natural. Es que pese a que sonaran algo simples, y con una base repetitiva, las obras de este músico oriundo de Nueva York quedaron como una buena influencia para otras bandas, que tomaron sus acordes para crear nuevos sonidos y experimentar otra dosis de rock. De ahí, que Duan Eddy no puede ser olvidado, menos si fue el pionero en utilizar varias técnicas de estudio para modificar el sonido de su tan aplaudida guitarra.
My dad loved this song, first 45 I ever saw him buy, played it all the time with the center adapter for the bigger hole in the center of the record👍❤👏🎸🎶🎷📣
Duane has always been revered in the the UK so his music was always on the radio and jukebox here while I was growing up. Even in the 80's I knew young guitarists who idolised him. He is a Legend to us Brits!
Rebel Rouser was my high school fight song played at all football games. It was Fairfax High School Fairfax, Va. We were the Fairfax High Rebels. A Confederate Flag was on all of our letter jackets. Of course today that is not PC. So I am sure it got changed.

You are right - -DUANE EDDY - Great guitar sound - unmistakable - !

Duane Eddy's music just makes me HAPPY !!!! WHAT more could you ask !
May 1 2024
So long Duane Thank you for the fine music and memories.
God bless you 🙂
There will never be another like Duane Eddy
He doesn't play anything no one else can play, but no one else ever made it sound like that. He doesn't even need the same guitar or amp, he just IS Duane Eddy.
Rebel Rouser and Peter Gun are the best Instrumenal in the history of Rock'n Roll , Duan Eddy only Great. Blues and Rock'nRoll will never die.
Duane Eddy's "Rebel Rouser" ranks right up there with "Wipeout," and "Tequila" as far as classic instrumentals go.
Duane & the sac hard to beat the sound. Rock on Baby!
the twang and the sax ,it doesn't get any better. great job
WHEN YOU'RE ON STAGE WITH A LEGEND,YOU'VE PRETTY MUCH REACHED THE PEAK. ALWAYS LOVED THIS MUSIC
This song makes me happy. I play it while I am cleaning house. So much fun to dance around to while working. Gotta love the old music.
Me too
I Like it Duane.

I stumbled across this by accident. Absolutely smiled the whole way through. Some fun!!
Over 50 years ago I left home to go into the Navy. Rebel Rouser was playing and my mother was crying. the song became our favorite in boot camp

Duane Surely Rauses the Rebel, Jim Horn Blows Our Minds As Well！
Two excellent tracks, superbly performed. This came from an era when popular music was good music.
+Blues fan too bad the dancers weren't that good..they were off beat..

I've always loved this song, the sound of the guitar and sax sound is great!!!!
And now I’m 78 and still love this

Hello Pat How are you doing?
duane eddy should be more famous.
That's a real Fine Gentlemen perhaps you need to really study music. I'm proud to know him as The.King of Twangy. He lived around the corner from me.
Just a regard to Douane by an hold italian who was and stil considers him an idol and , as you say , a gentlemen .
Vincent Boes a
Sometimes politics get involved. Duane was an original.
In my era, I’m in my seventies Duane Eddy was very famous, great guitarist good to see he can still twang that 🎸 great video.
I feel like one of the luckiest of the generation with the BEST...hands down......the best music!! Thanks!
In the late 1950s and 60s Duane Eddy was boss
Show first I'd heard him since I was 20 I'm now80 still love his music

Duane...One 'BAD-ASS Guitar Player"...........A Great sax!........Play...it...LOUD!!!
I love Duane Eddy and that twangy guitar, but I must say : nice work on that saxamochine!
Ah, the memories. Rocking and Rolling many years ago.
I love this when I was a teenager in the 50 s
Hello Bonnie, How are you doing?
Brings back such "young" memories.
I recorded this show when it was on PBS in '88; this was one of my favorite moments from the show. Duane made me want to be a guitarist!
Age hasn't hurt Duane a bit! The sax player is good also.
Yeah that's Jim Horn!
Duane turns 82 this year, and he still plays guitar like this.
When you take a great guitar player like Duane Eddy and put him together with a great saxophone player you get great music🦄😎🦄👍👍🎸🎷🦄😎🦄✌✌🎸🎷🥁🦄😎🦄👍👍🎸🎷✌
Jim Horn played saxophone in Duane's band The Rebels.
If you haven't figured it out..there will only be one Duane Eddy, ever.
Eddy rocks! I still have a lot of his original albums.
The great "Mr. Twang". Rock & Roll Hall of Fame class of 1994. And RIGHTFULLY so! That sax player ain't bad either.
Jim Horn!
Love this song! I was in a local band back in the 60"s and ram rod was our break song. I sure miss my old buddies in the band and this song.
That guitar was about the first sound I can remember that began me on the trail of R'nR. I was 9, my cousin 14. He had a guitar and was trying to learn it all. '57/'58...Duane Eddy, Link Wray, Chuck Berry, and then all hell broke loose....
Great guitarist. Loved his music 🎼
Just about time I finally saw this great man and his band after hearing them for some 50+ years.
My feelings entirely.
Boy do I miss this music. Can’t call most of the crap they play today is music.
Amen to that (Rap Crap, Funk junk, etc!)
I always love how this song switched keys as it progressed.
Tremolux Man sesame street
GOOD STUFFF.....GOOD BASS SOLO,,,,GOOD SAX,,,GOOD GUITAR PICKIN.....THESE GUYS KNOW JUST HOW TO DO IT....
This is MUSIC for the time. Great back then and even better now in 2019. You can enjoy it not the trash of today.
Now this is rock & roll music at it's best!! Thanks for posting.

I like how everyone got a turn, in a similar fashion to mountain music.
The bass was impressive.
Always loved Duane Eddy and used to listen to him when I was growing up!

Been listening to the man since I was a youngster and thats been a while
I don't think anyone knows how hard it is to play a tenor sax like that guy did.
When Rock & Roll was great.
My dad loved this song, first 45 I ever saw him buy, played it all the time with the center adapter for the bigger hole in the center of the record👍❤👏🎸🎶🎷📣
How come I had never even heard of Duane Eddy until I saw Forrest Gump ??
Why wasn't his music around in the 1960's, when I was growing up ?
Duane has always been revered in the the UK so his music was always on the radio and jukebox here while I was growing up. Even in the 80's I knew young guitarists who idolised him. He is a Legend to us Brits!
Damn that guy plays a mean guitar and that saxophone isn't bad. Thank you, I enjoyed that.
just 3 instruments can make one hip hop happy
I have not heard that in a lo0ng time. Really wonderful. Thanks!
I use to dance to this when I was a teenager
What great music !!!
Duane Eddy is a legend!
Rebel Rouser was my high school fight song played at all football games. It was Fairfax High School Fairfax, Va. We were the Fairfax High Rebels. A Confederate Flag was on all of our letter jackets. Of course today that is not PC. So I am sure it got changed.
