Tear It Down

Clyde McCoy and his Orchestra

This recording was made in Chicago on August 22, 1933 by Clyde McCoy and his Orchestra.

*”Tear It Down” is credited to Clyde McCoy and Buford Threlkeld (aka Whistler).

Clyde McCoy was responsible for developing the signature “wah-wah” sound on his trumpet during the late 1920’s. In 1967 this distinctive sound was replicated for electric guitar with the introduction of the Vox Wah-Wah Pedal bearing his name.
