With guitar work from ace George Tomsco, the Fireballs being guided by Buddy's longtime producer, Norman Petty. A little taste of Tex-Mex from that famed Clovis, NM studio.
And yes, the Apartment Demos show where things were going, ever upward. Buddy was in fact just peaking!
Good to see the man who was so instrumental in the making of Kiln House stopping by to share a few thoughts. Hope our comments have done it justice! They've been overwhelmingly positive, reflective of the production itself. You and Danny worked like a pair of seasoned aces leading that project, and really pulled it off well.
