Editor's note: I just received this snippet of a Scooty Moore tribute album that's been all mixed up 
for 5.1 lovers. Moore of course was famous for playing guitar on many of Elvis Presley's biggest hits. The source was Prosoundnews.com and the snippet was taken from a story on the activities at South Beach Studios.
And, engineer Patrice Cramer completed a 5.1 mix for the upcoming DVD release of Tribute to Scotty Moore, featuring Eric Clapton, David Gilmour, Ron Wood, Bill Wyman. Cramer was assisted by Rick Bryant.
And this little bit ran on whereseric.com...
On 2 and 3 December a concert-style tribute to guitarist Scotty Moore was filmed at London's Abbey Road Studios. Moore is considered one of the true innovators of early rock guitar.In 1954, he was working at Sun Studios in Memphis, Tennessee when studio owner Sam Phillips auditioned Elvis Presley. The audition yielded Elvis' first single, "That’s Alright Mama" and Moore began his 14 year association with Presley playing on some of the King's greatest hits of the 1950s and early 1960s.
On the first day of filming, Eric played on three numbers with work being completed in about two-hours. The only other celebrity of note present at the time was Mark Knopfler. The bulk of the filming occurred on the following day, but Eric did not attend. Other participants in the project included David Gilmour, Bill Wyman, Ron Wood, and Albert Lee. The audience was the same for both days. As it was filmed, audience members had to wear the same clothes! The DVD should be released sometime in 2005.
A television special is also being tossed about. At this time we are unsure if a cd of the performances will be rockabilly-ing into your favorite retail outlet...
