In 1968, José Feliciano was invited to perform “The Star Spangled Banner” before Game 5 of the World Series in Detroit. Using this custom Concerto Candelas guitar, Feliciano delivered a wholly original rendition of the national anthem. In the words of our curator John Troutman, Feliciano's performance was "soulful, searching, steeped in blues and seasoned with the percolation of his fingers across a guitar built in the Sunset boulevard shop of a family of immigrants from Torreon, Mexico." ?
Not everyone appreciated Feliciano's new interpretation of the song, but his rendition sent "The Star Spangled Banner" into the pop charts for the first time ever. It also sparked conversations that continue to this day about how the national anthem should be performed. ?? Yesterday, Feliciano donated his guitar to the museum, along with many other objects from his decades-long, Grammy-award winning career. Swipe right to take a closer look at the objects. They include a performance stool with which Felciano toured and recorded for decades, a Braille writer on which Feliciano and his wife Susan produced documents and letters for many years, a personalized pair of sunglasses, and an embroidered letter from one of Feliciano's fans in Japan. ?
