Sleepwalk, Amos Garrett

I've just watched Amos Garrett playing an amazing but very different version of Sleepwalk on Youtube. FYI Amos was the guitarist who played guitar on Midnight at The Oasis by Maria Maldaur. What a player he is.

Thanks Barry.

Amos' guitar work on Midnight at the Oasis is one of my all time favourite solos. A huge hit 50 years ago (!).

In the words of Hank himself, in an interview conducted in 1975 and published in “International Musician” in early 1976, “Amos Garrett is a tasty player”.
