Biography:
Duane Eddy (April 26, 1938) is a Grammy Award-winning American guitarist. In the late 1950s and early 1960s he had a string of hit records, produced by Lee Hazlewood, which were noted for their characteristically "twangy" sound, including "Rebel Rouser", "Peter Gunn", and "Because They're Young". He had sold 12 million records by 1963. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.
Born in Corning, New York, he began playing the guitar at the age of five.

STILL AS THE NIGHT - Duane Eddy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: harrytheblurfan
This was originally by Sanford Clark, I believe, but featured Duane Eddy on the
guitar and has been covered a few times in recent years. Most notably by the
Crystal Stilts on their Radiant Door EP and Richard Hawley who also performed
it with Duane Eddy. Anyway, I can't find any tabs for it (or even lyrics!) so
here they are.
In the break you can either play the first notes or the chords, both sound
good so it's up to you.
