Guitariste et Chanteur Country US né le 29
Septembre 1930 à Long Beach (Californie). Billy Strange est
décédé le 22 Février 2012. Il était marié avec
Jeanne Black.
One of the
most successful session musicians of the 1960s, Billy Strange was a member of
"The Wrecking Crew," the team of elite players who dominated the Los Angeles
recording studios and worked on many of the biggest hits of the '60s and '70s. Strange co-wrote
hits for Elvis
Presley and Chubby
Checker and arranged Nancy Sinatra's biggest hits in addition to lending his
talents to recordings by the Beach Boys, Phil Spector, the
Everly Brothers, and many more. Billy Strange was born in Long Beach,
California on September 29, 1930. His parents, George and Billie Strange, were
county & western musicians, and young Billy followed in their footsteps,
performing with his folks on the radio and winning a yodeling contest at the age
of 5. Strange took up the guitar when he was 14, and two years later he was
playing with a local honky tonk band that set out for Texas in search of
adventure and paying gigs. When Strange returned to California, he was a
seasoned professional and was soon working with some of the biggest names on the
West Coast C&W scene of the '50s, including Tennessee
Ernie Ford, Roy Rogers, Spade
Cooley, and Cliffie Stone. Strange also
signed on as a guitarist and singer with CBS Radio in Hollywood, which led to
more jobs in pop music as well as introducing him to the lucrative world of
studio work. As a gifted guitarist who was as comfortable with pop and rock
styles as country, Strange rose to the upper ranks of Los Angeles session
players, working with many of the leading artists and producers of the day, and
in addition to working on other people's recordings, he cut a series of
instrumental albums for GNP Crescendo Records. In 1962, an instrumental number Strange wrote
for the group the
Champs was married to a lyric by Kal Mann and recorded by Chubby
Checker, who scored a massive hit with "Limbo Rock." This kick-started Strange's
career as a songwriter, and he was also recruited to work with Elvis
Presley, playing guitar on many of his sessions, co-writing a few tunes for
the King (including "A Little Less Conversation" and "Memories") and
contributing to the soundtracks of several of his films. As the '60s wore on, Strange remained
in demand as a session guitarist (he appeared on the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds and Love's Forever
Changes), but he branched out as an arranger and bandleader, arranging the
lion's share of Nancy Sinatra's hits (including "These Boots Are Made for Walkin',"
"Bang Bang [He Shot Me Down]," and her duet with her father Frank, "Somethin'
Stupid") and fronting her backing band for live performances. Strange also
served as arranger for the early recordings by the TV-spawned group the
Partridge Family, but in the early '70s he relocated to Nashville, Tennessee,
where he helped run a publishing company for Nancy Sinatra and continued to
write songs and record periodically. In the '80s, Strange briefly dipped his
toes into acting, playing the great steel guitarist Speedy
West (who Strange had worked with in his early days) in the movie Coal
Miner's Daughter. By the time a remix of Presley's
"A Little Less Conversation" took the song back to the charts in 2002, Strange was
retired in Nashville, supporting himself through songwriting and performance
royalties. After a brief illness, Strange died on February 22, 2012.
