George Cromarty
George Cromarty (September 15, 1941〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Here They Are (1962) )〕 – February 12, 1992〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Artist info: George Cromarty )〕) was an American folk guitarist and singer. He is best known as the co-writer, with Ed Rush, of the song ''Plastic Jesus'',〔(Plastic Jesus. Reverend Colin.com )〕〔(Who Sang Plastic Jesus? ask.com )〕 though he went on to record three albums of solo guitar music in the 1970s and 1980s. The Folk Music Sourcebook likened his playing style to John Fahey's, and George Winston cites Cromarty as a musical influence.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=George Winston: Influences )〕 His music has been heard on the soundtracks of many films, including the Coen brothers' ''Inside Llewyn Davis.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=George Cromarty )〕 The "Columbia record exec" in ''Inside Llewyn Davis'' was named "Mr. Cromarty" in honor of Cromarty.
==Biography==
Cromarty met Ed Rush while they were students in Fresno. They first performed together at Kalisa's restaurant in Monterey, California as The Goldcoast Singers. They moved to San Francisco and, after performing in clubs there, they were invited to perform before an audience of 1,000 at the San Francisco State Folk Festival. The audience responded enthusiastically, and the duo played five encores, closing with ''Plastic Jesus''. The recording of this performance was released in 1962 as ''Here They Are! The Goldcoast Singers''.〔
In 1963, Cromarty was drafted into the army. He later settled in Morro Bay, California.〔 His first solo album of acoustic guitar music, ''Grassroots Guitar'', was released in 1973 on his own label, Thistle Records. His next release, ''The Only One'', was ostensibly an album of songs for children. Cromarty's third and last album, ''Wind in the Heather'', was recorded for George Winston's Dancing Cat Records in 1984.
Cromarty died on February 12, 1992. He was 50 years old.
