Beyond his signature Gibby, we have multi-tracking, overdubbing and phasing as we pretty much know it to thank this guitar genius for. He was as much an innovator as a stand out artist.

That's Mary Ford you goof. As in, his once upon a time wife and hit vocalist. Although come to think of it, I wouldn't have minded a little LP twist to grace "Sixteen Tons".
PS. Check out the two albums he did with the late, great Chet Atkins in the late 70's - tight stuff.
