Can any one tell me the name of the guitar solo song its also used at the end of the film Labamba, when they in form Richie Valences Mother that he has just died? Many thanks in advance.

I have just found out it was actually by Richie Valence and called sleepwalk. it's a great tune

My apologies spurslady if I am wrong, but I thought Sleepwalk was performed by Johnny and Santo - Haven't seen the film but the instrumental is a slow dreamy piece played on a steel slide guitar. It was also used on the Stephen King film Sleepwalkers when the mother and son dance together.

As I haven't seen the film,I can't say who played the version, you may well be correct. I have only heard it by 'Santo & Johnny' who have their name on the composing credit

Many thanks for our answers, I just typed it into a search and that came up Im glad I know the original artists names now, I just love that music even though it was about 20 odd years before I was born.
