| In Memory of Sal DiTroia [22 June 2007] www.myspace.com/salditroia Playing guitar for 50 years, 36 years of fingerstyle guitar. Every time you hear “I'm a Believer” on the radio or watch The Godfather on television, you hear Sal. He’s the studio musician who played guitar on The Monkees’ peppy 1966 hit and worked on the score for the 1972 movie’s foreboding wedding scene. Sal also performed on Billy Joel’s first album, on Simon & Garfunkel’s hits “The Boxer” and “Scarborough Fair”, and on all of Dionne Warwick’s hits, including “Alfie” and “Do You Know the Way to San Jose.” He’s worked with everyone from Grace Slick to Country Joe McDonald. |
