Customer Review Many Delights The song was an instant, Top Ten hit around the world, ranking #1 on Rolling Stone Magazine's dance chart for six weeks that summer. In 1986, Duane recorded with Art of Noise, a collaboration that brought a new twist to his 1960 best seller, "Peter Gunn". As further confirmation of it's success. "Peter Gunn" won the Grammy for Best Rock Instrumental of 1986. The following year, a new album, the self-titled, Duane Eddy, was released on Capitol. As a tribute to his influence and inspiration to so many young players, a crowd of unbelievable talent came along to be a part of this project. Tracks were recorded by Paul McCartney, Jeff Lynne, Ry Cooder, Art of Noise, and Duane. The "band" included John Fogerty, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Ry Cooder, James Burton, David Lindley, Steve Cropper, and original Rebels, Larry Knechtel and Jim Horn. Oliver Stone used "The Trembler", the track written by Eddy and Ravi Shankar, in his film Natural Born Killers to help create a spine-chilling scene set against a violent thunderstorm in the desert. "Rockabilly Holiday" is one of many highlights on the album in which Eddy shows he can do more than twang (note: you can hear him casually sighing "whoops" as he muffs one of the riffs). . .
