Didn't he also have some "how to play the guitar" instructional records?
I remember by dad buying a couple and I could have sworn it was George >Barnes.
Dad never learned.
From Wiki:
In 1942, Barnes wrote the first electric guitar method book, The
George Barnes Electric Guitar Method, published by W. J. Smith.
In 1961, he wrote and recorded George Barnes' Living Guitar Method:
The Easy Way to Learn All the Chords and Rhythms, and, Ten Duets for
Two Guitars (recorded with his partner Carl Kress) for Music Minus
One.
In 1965, he wrote How to Arrange for Solo Guitar, published by
Peermusic. He also produced the first guitar course offered on
cassette tape, The Great George Barnes Guitar Course, published in
1970 by Prentice Hall.
