Herby Wallace playing live on YouTube!

Post by Joe Alterio »

Hi all,

I have posted two home video clips of Herby Wallace playing in the early 1990s with a top-notch band that includes Bobby Caldwell. These showcase some of Herby's fine speedy C6 licks....only thing better is seeing Herby play this stuff in person! Image

Herby is a great player and a great showman. He always worked hard and came prepared to the seminars I attended. I first saw him with Nat Stuckey and Herby played for a good hour before the show and the guitar player just sat there and watched not being able to find all the chords and know all the songs in Herby's huge repetoire. If you see Herby live you can appreciate the way he works the foot volume so smoothly.

Joe, the sound and picture were really close to being in sync compared to most YouTube videos. That sure made this more enjoyable to watch!

Herby and Bobby,I could listen to those two all day anyday. Russ Weaver looks like he's having a blast too along with jQ on the pots. Classic Herby and Bobby certainly two of the all time greats.

I had the pleasure of hearing Herby play
this weekend in Norwalk. Despite his recent
stroke he is now back in form and still sounds great. I also got a chance to talk with him at the Mullen booth.He is a real nice guy, and I got to try the Mullen "Herby Wallace model". Beautiful guitar and the easiest pedal action I've ever played.

That's just incredible. I wonder who the fiddle player is. I just wish I knew how to save it to my hard drive.

Herby is a <u>great</u> player!

The sad part is that a lot of players with far less knowledge and ability have achieved far more recognition and popularity. Image

"Style" can be argued in many ways, but true ability belies any argument.
