Gary Hoey
The Best Of Gary Hoey
The Story
"The Best Of Gary Hoey" is just that. A definitive collection for the uninitiated featuring his radio hits "Hocus Pocus", "Drive", "Linus And Lucy", Peace Pipe" and "Desire", as well as a brand new version of "Rocky Mountain Way", the theme song for the 2004 Winter X Games. As surf guitar legend Dick Dale puts it, "My favorite guitar players are B.B. King, Eric Claption, Andres Segovia and Gary Hoey." "Misirlou" features a guest spot by Dale on guitar, while "Bug Alley" features the Stray Cats guitarist Brian Setzer on guest axe.
