...and the band seen in this Youtube clip (in the post above this one) is not country or rockabilly - more like big band jazz - but that's definitely a talkbox long before Roger, Peter Frampton, Stevie Wonder, Pete Drake, etc. got a hold of it.
There was also the Sonovox.

Funny that this is mentioned, because on another board someone discovered a Jim Reeves song with the same effect. Finally found the song, it's called "I've Enjoyed As Much Of This As I Can Stand" from his 1963 album Good 'N' Country[/b]b, 21a href="http://imageshack.us" target="_blank"1img src="http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7791/c509480j49qqf3.jpg"1/a1b, 21:b, 21b, 21object width="425" height="344"1param name="movie" value=""1/param1param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"1/param1param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"1/param1embed src="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"1/embed1/object1b, 21b, 21b, 21Let's not forget some of the pirate radio excerpts on The Who Sell Out[/b].
This is such a pleasant surprise. Listening to this album now.b, 21b, 21And yeah, country boys were fucked up man. I mean, in a good way. My man Kool Kear's country crates are deep with all sorts of crazy drugged out country boys just going in. Dope shit.
with all due respect to kim kardashian thread with that red-headed secretary photo, this is the best thread on soulstrut in a long ass time. thanks for all the videos and knowledge dropped! that sonovox joint is ridiculous!
If I remember correctly, there's also some good early b&w footage of Bruce Haack using a Sonovox on the Mr. Rogers shows in that otherwise crappy Bruce Haack documentary.
