Thread Name: Guitar Player on Darin's 'Dream Lover '?
Subject: RE: Guitar Player on Darin's 'Dream Lover '?
It was Al Caiola.
He lists that song on his website and takes credit for the featured guitar work.
Caiola also admits he heard Duane Eddy records and ripped-off the low string lead style he used on the theme to Bonanza TV show and The Good, Bad and the Ugly movie soundtrack.
I think he is still alive, in his mid 90s.
