Gatton, obviously was heavily Buchanan influenced. He was his own virtuoso, but the influence was there, and very patent.

He was absolutely great, you only need see the caliber of musicians he habitually got to accompany him.

I learned about Danny Gatton from Roy Buchanan whom I met backstage at Tulane back in 1977-1978 timeframe. I had just turned Coolidge (RIP) onto Roy via the Loading Zone LP, and I dragged him down to see Roy. Coolidge became a big fan that night even though Roy played only one song from Loading Zone, Green Onions.
