Lang's playing appeared on more recordings than any other single guitarist in the 1920s. His fluid style was dazzlingly inventive and can be traced through the history of the electric guitar, with players like T-Bone Walker and Jimi Hendrix owing him a debt. Who knows what the groundbreaking guitarist might have accomplished had he not perished during a routine operation in 1933 at age 30.
Eddie Lang has also released music as a member of The Mound City Blue Blowers, Hoagy Carmichael and His Orchestra, Red Nichols & His Five Pennies, Frankie Trumbauer and His Orchestra, Roger Wolfe Kahn and His Orchestra, Eddie Lang and His Orchestra, Joe Venuti & Eddie Lang and Their All-Star Orchestra, Blind Willie Dunn's Gin Bottle Four, Jean Goldkette and His Orchestra, and Georgia Crackers.
