For many years 'Bud' truly was the 'Man Of Mystery' that the title of this collection bills 'him' as. It eventually became known that 'Bud Ashton' was simply a catch-all name for any guitarist who Embassy hired for their sessions. Among those who claimed their session fee as 'Bud' are believed and in many cases definitely known to be Vic Flick, Big Jim Sullivan, Bert Weedon, Tony Moretti and mostly Bob Rogers of the Ted Taylor Four and later his own group Sounds Bob Rogers. \"Man Of Mystery\" features every Bud Ashton 45 released between 1958 and 1962, along with a number of tracks credited to the equally pseudonymous 'Steve Stannard Group' which feature a prominent 'Bud' guitar break. As you would expect from musicians of such high calibre, 'Bud's cover versions of hits by the Shadows, Duane Eddy and other leading instrumentalists of the era are as first rate as Embassy's vocal releases so often are, and in many cases almost on a par with the originals, regarded these days with respect and admiration rather than derision and scorn. \"Mystery\" solved!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuitar Boogie Shuffle - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeter Gunn - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForty Miles Of Bad Road - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleepwalk - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome Kind-A Earthquake - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShazam! - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApache - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBecause They're Young - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalk Don't Run - Steve Stannard And His Orchestra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMan Of Mystery - Steve Stannard And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKommotion - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfidia - Steve Stannard And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePepe - Steve Stannard And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF.B.I - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheels - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(Ghost) Riders In The Sky - Steve Stannard And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheme From Dixie - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Frightened City - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKon-Tiki - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Savage - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLet There Be Drums - Steve Stannard And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWonderful Land - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Rocker - The Bud Ashton Trio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuitar Tango - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelstar - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(Dance With The) Guitar Man - Bud Ashton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDance On! - Bud Ashton And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlobetrotter - Bud Ashton And His Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 604988123326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jasmine Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.17.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Revival Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53235438649504,"sku":"604988123326","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/5899\/5360\/files\/4461955-3458049.jpg?v=1770372308","url":"https:\/\/vinylrevivalrecordstore.com\/products\/bud-ashton-man-of-mystery-embassys-swingin-bud-ashton-man-of-mystery-embassys-swingin-cd","provider":"Vinyl Revival Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
