David's Guitar Loft on Instagram: "Get hip with Buddy Merrill! Lawrence Welk brought Buddy to his show in 1955 to play the new “rock and roll” style and to appeal to the younger audience. He was playing the new Fender Stratocaster and he was also a talented pedal steel guitarist. He could play many styles and here he is playing an adaptation of “Guitar Boogie” which Lawrence introduced as “Buddy’s Boogie”. #buddymerrill #guitar #fender #fenderstratocaster #lawrencewelk #boogiewoogie #musichistor
