The Candyman Can

From: Jason Loughlin's Rockabilly Licks Vol. 1

This one comes from the tune 'Sugarfoot Boogie'. Hank Garland is one of the most unsung heroes of the electric guitar and someone who greatly influences my playing. He really was a great rockabilly guitarist, jazz guitarist, country guitarist, and this was reflected in the fact that he was chosen to play on a lot of Elvis stuff, as well as that of Patsy Cline. Despite the fact Gibson named a guitar after him not many guitarists know who he is. Anyway, this is a bit more sophisticated boogie line.
