#QuickSidenote Al Casey also played guitar on "Endless Sleep" by Jody Reynolds. This single is also earned pre-Hot 100 era US #OneHitWonder honors (as is the Sanford Clark single). #AlCasey #JodyReynolds #OneHitWondered

#QuickSidenote Just thought I’d point out that Al Casey was credited on guitar on this pre-Hot 100 era hit single. #AlCasey #SanfordClark #OneHitWondered

#QuickSidenote Another guitarist from Duane Eddy’s Rebels was Al Casey, who’d go on to be one of the sought-after LA Wrecking Crew session guitarists… Here’s Al’s 1957 rockabilly classic “Guitar Man” featuring vocals from… Lee Hazlewood. #AlCasey #LeeHazlewood #OneHitWondered

One of the finest songs ever written and one of my favorite songs "Caravan" , written by Duke Ellington, here performed by Al Casey. The label wrongly claims it's Duane Eddy. Here it is, "Caravan (Part I).

Gather round me buddies
Hold your glasses high
And drink to a fool ...

His debut disc and by far, his biggest hit, #7 in the #Hot100 - #LeeHazlewood written (under a pseudonym) - #AlCasey on guitar - #RocknRollCLASSIC

In addition to Ray on guitar on #LindaLu were #DuaneEddy and #AlCasey (via the Hazlewood connection one presumes)

Gather round me buddies
Hold your glasses high
And drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye

But her real name, her real name, her real name was Linda Lu
