Santo & Johnny era il nome di un duo di chitarristi formato dai fratelli newyorkesi Santo (24 ottobre 1937) e Johnny Farina (30 aprile 1941). Il loro primo singolo, Sleepwalk, pubblicato nel 1959, era un brano strumentale composto con l'aiuto della madre, che riscosse un notevole successo balzando al primo posto delle classifiche statunitensi. Ad esso fecero seguito altri singoli e numerosi album che raccoglievano soprattutto brani easy-listening e colonne sonore. Furono molto popolari durante gli anni sessanta e settanta, anche in Italia, dove registrarono molti dischi e guadagnarono il disco d'oro per la loro versione della colonna sonora de Il Padrino (1973) del compositore Nino Rota. Il duo si sciolse nel 1976, ma Johnny Farina ha continuato per moltissimi anni ancora a esibirsi come solista e a incidere dischi.

The Farina brothers, Santo & Johnny, were born in Brooklyn, New York. Santo, October 24, 1937 and Johnny, April 30, 1941. The boys were young when their Dad was drafted into the Army and stationed in Oklahoma. There on the radio he heard this beautiful music, it was the sound of the steel guitar. He wrote home to his wife and said "I'd like the boys to learn to play this instrument". When he returned from the war they searched out to a man who could get them started with the steel. Years later, they formed a band, playing at church dances, weddings and clubs. The Farina brothers began to gather fans from Brooklyn to Long Island.
As their popularity grew locally they recorded a couple of demo tapes. Johnny made the rounds of the New York record companies. One day Johnny decided to try a music publishing company and there is where the history of "Sleep Walk" started, they signed a song writer's contract which later on lead them to Canadian American Records. Their first release in 1959 was "Sleep Walk" which was written by Santo & Johnny. It was the last #1 instrumental of the 50's and earned them a Gold Record. With their unmistakable sound, they appeared on all the top music shows, "The Alan Freed Show", "Dick Clarks' American Bandstand", "The Perry Como Show" etc. etc

The most virtuosic blues King, big bad Freddie was a spectacular guitarist, as well as a first rate singer and accomplished songwriter. As a transplanted Texan who moved to Chicago in the fifties, Freddie rubbed shoulders with the likes of Buddy Guy, Otis Rush and Magic Sam. When he started churning out instrumental and vocal hits for the Cincinatti-based King Records in the early sixties, his music combined the soul of Chicago blues with the swinging drive of Texas shuffles. By the seventies he had been discovered by the rock audience, and luminaries like Leon Russell and Eric Clapton clamored to produce him and play with him. Freddie's vast repertoire of blues classics offer cool hooks, hot solos and foottapping rhythms for the contemporary electric guitarist. Nearly every blues band and quite a few rock bands have always included at least one of his signature songs, be it "Hideaway" or "Have You Ever Loved a Woman," in their set lists. His legacy as the epitome of the hip Texas guitar slinger lives on in the licks of the greatest guitar players today.

DUKE ROBILLARD
As the founder of Roomful of Siut's, guitarist extraordinaire Duke Robillard showed his ability as a player and his knowledge of swing era blues. The Rhode Island-based hom band was especially adept at playing the music of T-Bone Walker. Since leaving Roomful Of Blues, Duke has demonstrated that his talents extend to all styles of American guitar music. A stint with the Fabulous Thunderbirds proclaimed his fierce Texas chops while his critically acclaimed solo recordings have covered the spectrum from swing jazz to rockabilly to Chicago blues and beyond. As he did with T-Bone Walker on Volume 1 of the Bluesmasters series, Duke once again gives invaluable insights into the style of a legendary blues guitarist. Using a select group of Freddie's greatest songs, he takes you through each one lick by lick, revealing the inner workings of a master musician. Rare performance footage of Freddie King is included to enrich the unique learning experience offered in this exclusive video lesson.
