Pete Anderson Telecaster Trendsetter - ASK ZAC EP 35

CORRECTION: Pete used 7 out of the 21 stockpiled Yoakam originals on each of the first 3 albums they released together.

Pete Anderson turned Nashville on its ear with his playing and production on Dwight Yoakam's 1986 release, Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc. His use of a Tele and Fender Deluxe Reverb amp, instead of the Music City norm of a Strat going direct with heavy chorus, made Dwight's record stand-out, and radio and record buyers responded by quickly turning Yoakam into a bonafide star. In this AZ episode, I give some backstory on Anderson, show some of his licks, and how his work ethic and street smarts paid off for him.
