Pretty cool stuff. I had never seen this video before. Skip to about 1:18 to see Luther's lead solo with a Fender Jag.

"It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea

That's a lot of drip not a little.

Not played overly well/confidently. Probably doesn't want to be there/playing that.

Thanks Brian! That's a great quality video for that period.

Love that song as well ("Big River")

METEOR IV on reverbnation

Plenty of country artists in the early 60s used a lot of drip. Luther was one of the main ones who did. This is one of my favorites...LOVE that drip!

Luther Perkins was a consummate sideman. Tasteful, restrained, not the least bit flashy, but always supporting Cash effectively for the song at hand. Great stuff!
