Absolutely brilliant and talented performance. Kenny and Deke are utilizing double neck guitar playing at its best. As one viewer wrote, this song was originally performed by Joe Maphis and a very young Larry Collins in the 1950's on double neck Mosrite guitars hand made by legend guitar luthier Semi Moseley. Kenny always reminds me of a young Hank Marvin of England's famous instrumental band "The Shadows". To play this difficult instrumental not only on national TV but with legend "Duane Eddy" sitting in the front row audience watching every finger movement would be nerve racking for most performers. A wonderful post. Thank you!
Saw Deke & the Eccofonics in late February in my town. What a fabulous player, showman and Gentleman. A true guitar wizard, entertainer, and guitar historian!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he comes to your neighborhood, do not miss him.
Deke's a friend an' you gotta believe he's KILLER...in SO MANY ways: guitar picker, singer, songwriter, historical writer, brilliant mind and collector of all things cool, musical & otherwise...plus a REAL gentleman, entertainer and showman. The West Coast...well, the whole Nation...is lucky to have a cat like Deke!
Jody Maphis, Joe's son. Went to jr. high with Jody in Atwater, California. Both of us played in the school band and both of us together got to play electric guitar with the band. Big deal back in those days. Awesome to see Kenny using Jody's Mosrite.
Very cool...those twin harmonizing licks remind me of double tracked Les Paul recordings and the Kenny & Deke's double duty on the Maphis recall Stevie and Jimmie Vaughan's brotherly bit.
Early American, wow. great. But imagine the 12 year old Larry Collins doing the song with Joe Maphis on Town Hall Party in 50's on the double neck mosrites. mosrite60
Deke Dickerson is not to be missed. He tours the USA and Europe almost non-stop. Sign up at his website for his schedule. He may be in your town on a Wednesday night for $8.00. You'd feel like a fool if you missed him, again!
Real country artists don't go on stage looking like they stopped off at the venue on their way home from picking up dog food and frozen pizza at Walmart. Whenever I see some "country" artist in a T shirt and ball cap, I know its going to suck. (Yeah, I'm talking to you Luke Bryan.) This is actual country music, folks.
On yesterday’s news,various musicians were eulogising Van Halen...a guy who I’d heard of,but never heard. So I gave him a listen and thought his quadruple sustain guitar sound was bloody awful ...unlike this and all the other guitar pickers I’ve followed for 65 years....Franny Beecher,Perkins,Scotty,Chuck,Cochran,Gallup,Skaggs,Gill etc.etc.!
Shhhh!!!!Did i just hear Mr Bert Weedon stir in his grave...(this is for the English folks that remember him)..omg what would he have said seeing these talented guys....
That there is a leg end.A 6'4 country boy called Deke ..with his name on the NECKS of his double neck Geetar Boy you don't git to much more countried up..I'm tellin ya!
@@djavidianmx1832 I know a great deal about the various musical strands that wove together, even straddling the US racial divide, to produce Rockabilly. Both Western Swing and Bluegrass are part of that great tapestry. But all other 'Country' music is complete shite; utterly commercialised since at least the 40s to play on redneck radio for ad revenue. None of it is remotely related to the genuine article that country people used to play at home.
@@oleracoon Chet Atkins, Glen Campbell & Roy Clark have all credited Johnny Cash with teaching them how to play several instruments & also how to sing. It's on the website, countrymusicpickers.com.
@@monerz1 No, Buck Owens was a - very good - rhythm guitarist. He started as a studio musician. Johnny Cash is - for sixty years - my favorite singer, I have seen him on stage many times throughout his career and I can say that Chet Atkins, Roy Clark, Campbell and others cannot say that they have been influenced by Cash.
Marty Stuart’s band is in another stratosphere!!
Deke, one of the coolest cats in the galaxy sitting in with the coolest band in the United States of America.
10 years later, agreed. Deke is still one of the coolest cats in the galaxy.
I could listen to Cousin Kenny all day and still not get enough
This is Gold! Especially with Duane Eddy in the front row!
Cousin Kenny and those Superlatives-greatest thing to happen in my life...and Marty Too!!

Some of the worlds best right there folks. Incredible!
Kenny Vaughn makes me smile so big! So good. Just love the music expertise of this band and they be damn funny too!! And Deke pretty darn good right?
I've never heard of Marty and his band. This is what you call a guitar band. Amazing.
I've seen Deke many times, what a talented man.
True talent, I could watch this stuff all day, oh wait, I do……
Very cool...those twin harmonizing licks remind me of double tracked Les Paul recordings and the Kenny & Deke's double duty on the Maphis recall Stevie and Jimmie Vaughan's brotherly bit.
Brilliant, I could listen to this all day long. thanks for the post.
There are very few players who could pull off that great stunt…Well done!!!
Early American, wow. great. But imagine the 12 year old Larry Collins doing the song with Joe Maphis on Town Hall Party in 50's on the double neck mosrites. mosrite60
They're pickin' and I'M grinnin' with 'em! Made my day a LOT less lousy!
Ok, that was plain cool 😎!! So lucky I got to see Marty and the Superlatives the other night as well!
I saw the whole show
Incredible

You have to read his books too. Strat in the Attic 1 and 2. He's a great writer.
I am a new fan and want to go to a concert.
Just saw him a week ah in Baltimore awesome
Awesome!!
This video should be in the Hall of fame.
This was incredible. Loved the entire episode.
That’s freakin’ incredible!
Fantastic! Thanks for posting this.💯👌💯
this is awesome!!!!
Deke played at my wedding ten years ago this December.
dudes a legend...
LOVE it!
Wow! These guys are great!!
You can't get much cooler than this!
That was fantastic!
Holy mackerel, those cats are the cats meow.
hell yeah that was awesome
this was a great show the other night.
AMAZING!
Dang that was awesome.
That is the tightest band I have ever heard!
Just too good. That's a SMILE!
Fantastic
THE KINGS OF = "THE CooLesT " !!! !!
Honest to God guitar!
Deke Dickerson - Never heard of the guy, but he sure is good. Swappin' necks is one thing, but sharing necks is just crazy.

This is actual country music, folks.
Ha Ha Kenny does look like howdy doody with his hat off.
What overwhelming amount of skill on stage. They should substitute american idol and all other competitive programs for some real talent...
Wow, real country picking!
yes sir!
Thst wass cool as hell
Kenny is great
If you don't know who Joe and Rose Lee Maphis were,look 'em up.Also look up the Collins Kids.
tippimail1 There ya go
GOOD JOB!!
Damn!
❤️ dig this ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
10 crazies
WOW! That's all I can say.
DAYUM
I forgot Burton,Maphis,Jerry Reed and no doubt many more!
Albert Lee
That was Larry Collins in the front row, wasn't it?
Larry and Joe M really made the mosrite sound. Later the ventures played rock and roll. but no body beats Larry/Joe IMO.
mosrite6-0
Hot Damn
Dang

I don’t like paying that money for a felt hay either
Pick it son
2Oct 21... 23 people should have the country slapped right out o' their mouth...

Deke is a Rockabilly legend. So sad to see him pretending to be Country.
So sad to see you pretending to know something about the interwoven tight relationship between styles of music but not acutally having a clue.

cooment dit-on, menage a trois
Deke is such an arrogant fk, but Kenny and Marty just gets er done. Love it.
These guys are good, but Johnny Cash is still considered one of the best guitar players ever.
It's a joke? No one considered The Man In Black as a good guitarist. He plays only rhythm.
