Thanks for that. He’s great – and on a pedal steel! BTW, Joe Walsh’s 1972 Rocky Mountain Way was the first talk box I ever heard.

That must have been absolutely startling in it’s day! Can you imagine?

His backup band is fantastic. I could listen to stuff like that all day.

I do have to say my favourite talk box songs are “Kick Start My Heart” and “Man in the Box.” Maybe more for the subtlety of “wo wowow” over actually trying to make the guitar talk.

Frampton? 80s? Frampton Comes Alive came out in 1976.
