The Wah Wah turns 50
Cool story of how such an iconic sound got started.
"I mean, my conventional people who I worked for, Gene Autry, Lawrence Welk, you know, the suits, I couldn’t even try to use the wah with them — it was too weird, way out for them. I called Frank Zappa and said, ‘I’m having a problem getting people to use it,’ and of course he took one. "
