Martha Reeves & The Vandellas ~ Heat Wave (1963) Sounds like it was recorded under a train trestle. Did they think it needed echo for excitement?

This is my dog's favorite song. When listing the greatest vocalist of all time regardless of genre, please do not leave out Steve Marriott. That would be uncool.

Love this band. Don't know why they were never bigger. This is hardly my favorite song from them, but does this guitarist pre date Page use of the bow on guitar? {#Think}

Edit: Had to look it up:

That honor goes to Eddie Phillips of The Mark Four. In the mid-'60s, Eddie was looking for a way to keep a drone going on his low E-string while he hammered-on a solo with his left hand on the other strings.

First, he tried sawing a string with a hacksaw from which he'd removed the blade and added a taut guitar string. That seemed pretty good, until at one gig he noticed some kids in the front row pointing at his guitar and laughing. "I looked down, and I'd worn three or four massive grooves in the bottom horn of my 335 from the ends of the saw," Eddie tells me. "Oh no! What have I done? So that obviously wasn't going to work."

Next, he went to his local music store in northeast London, bought a violin bow, and tried that. Not great. Jack Jones, the Mark Four drummer, said he'd heard you had to put rosin on the bow. Eddie went straight back to the store for a block of solid orange stuff with a whiff of pine.

Once a bow is treated to some of this rosin, it has the right amount of "grip" for the strings, as Eddie discovered. "I tried it, and to my surprise it actually worked," he says. "OK, it didn't do the guitar a great deal of good—but it didn't wreck it like the hacksaw. It did the job. And then I found you could turn the bow over to play it almost like a bottleneck, if you could get it right. It was all hit and miss. It was the kind of thing where one night it would be great, and the next night you gave up on it."
