Russ Hicks does a mean Travis/Atkins fingerpicking style on the C6. As usual with Russ, it is very funky and cool.

I am in orgasmic love with my '73 ShotBuddy!

I've owned Emmons P/Ps, but I still love the sound of the Sho~Bud.

That song was produced by Billy Sherrill, and on George's 1980 "comeback" album, "I Am What I Am." I was most certainly Ole Pete a-warblin' as only he could. According to musicians I know that playe ...

I am a relatively new convert to Jerry's music, but once I heard him play, I have been addicted to Jerry's playing.

Card goes out tomorrow!

Tommy is total FREAK! In a good way, of course. http://steelguitarforum.com/smile.gif

McFee: "Hippie" steel playing. LOL! http://steelguitarforum.com/smile.gif

Not listed, but Weldon on the Area Code 615 stuff(Grammy nominated!) and Russ Hicks with Barefoot Jerry come to mind as seminal steel playing of the era.

He's out making the sheep population of middle Tennessee VERY nervous. LOL! http://steelguitarforum.com/wink.gif

Send me some pics, please.

Wow! This brings back some memories. When I first moved to Gnashville, Jimmy was one of the first steelers I met (through Russ Hicks). I was fortunate enough to be asked to play on their first album ...

Thanks for all the help, guys! I seem to zeroing in on a couple of possibilities.

Keep it coming!!

I have taken a turn towards the Hawaiian side and need a 6-string to work on the techniques involved. I would like one that is not to "tinny" sounding, but I realize that at $250 or less I can't expe ...

Lloyd's guitar is still almost all original Shot-Buddy parts. I asked him this specific question just a week or so ago. My '73 LDG that Ricky fixed up is simply an amazing instrument!

Off-topic: You wouldn't happen to be the Mike McBride that played with Paycheck, would you? If so, hello dude! If not, I hope you at least sell the organ. BB

I knew Joel when he was knocking around Athens, GA. Las Vegas, huh? He used to play the first Maverick I ever saw. Good luck!

Gerald, I can tell you that Dan told me that he had been playing with Lee and Waddy (I think) since high school. As a matter of fact, Dan has a funny story about how they needed a bass player for the ...

I had the pleasure of having Dan play on many of my song sessions when I was in Tunetown. He is a fun guy to have around and always brings a great attitude to a recording project. And then there is ...

He said that he was cleaning tomato seeds out of Ralph Mooney's SB after some drunk dude barfed on the thing while loading it legs-on underneath Waylon's bus.

...and such. I thought the fole on this forum would appreciate this tale.

I know Ugly, and trust me, he's no Buddy!!

I thought "SP" stood for Special Phood coloring, right Ricky? ;-)
