I have just digitalized my Mena Moeria Minstrel records and thought that some of you might like to listen to these. Unfortunatly the recordings are from old 45 and 78 rpm records so the sound quality ...

Thanks Basil!!! These recordings excite me as much as hearing Jimmie Rivers and the Cherokees (with legendary Vance Terry) for the first time, brilliant stuff!!!!!

It's all your fault isn't a Wade Ray original It was recorded by Bob Wills on july 24 1941 with Leon McAuliffe on steel and vocals, it was written by Cindy Walker.

The Tops cuts I have on 45 rpm singles, there's Tops 45 - 1011 Sweet Georgia Brown b/w Honeysuckle Rose on red vinyl and Tops 45-1012 New San Antonio Rose b/w South. But some tracks have also been re ...

For those interested I've uploaded a few cool 78's from my collection with Joaquin Murphy. It also includes an alternate of San Antonio Rose. This Plainsmen track was both issued on Coast and Tops as ...

What kind of amp did Noel Boggs (or any other major steelplayer at that time) before they started using Standell amps, Fender?

I heared some early radio shows with Hank Penny and Speedy plays great on that. Single string stuff and beautifull chords. This recording was before he started to record for Capitol and is without all ...

This is for the European guys, I want to buy this book but does anybody have clue where I can buy this book and getting it shipped to the Netherlands? thanks.

No chance in finding a copy? Well it must be hard to find then!

Thanks everybody! If you ever find a copy of this lp and want to get rid of it please let me know!

A friend of mine taped this album for me and some of the songs are really good! Can anyone tell me more about Jack Mooney?

Wally: There is a recent album with DJ Bonebrake and Jeremy Wakefield doing some great jazz stuff together. You can listen to it here: http://rapidshare.com/files/119516078/The_Bonebrake_Syncopators_- ...

He Billy, I thought Speedy West played also with Sons Of The Pioneers on their version of Dieselsmoke, but I may be wrong!

I just love Noel Boggs' sound. Are these the Sons Of The Pioneers?

I just found out this clip has allready been posted here: Steel on the web: Spade Cooley soundie, 1945; isn't this Joaquin Murphey??

Saw this on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgzeLlBjD6Q Great stuff

Hello Roy great stuff!! Did you and Bobby Koefer play twin steels on all the 8 tracks of this great album? I have the original 10" lp, I believe there is also a later version of the album Swing W ...

Wow Billy, that sounds great! If you ever gonna put these recordings on a cd count me in for a copy!

Nice shot of Jimmy Roy's Bigsby. I don't know who this was made for, could have been Walter Haynes, I guess that is what I have heared.

Thanks Brad!

Rich man, who has recorded this? The vocalist sounds like Shorty Rogers to me? Is this a transcription or an official release.

I am still looking for the 78 rpm on Coast if anybody has a copy for sale please let me know.

I did notice that New San Antonio Rose on Tops is different from the version on Coast. Are the versions of both Honeysuckle and Sweet Georgia Brown on Coast also different then the 45 on Tops?

Well it's mostly the Capitol "A" team. Speedy West steel, Cliffie Stone bass, Billy Strange or Jimmy Bryant leadguitar, Harold Hensley fiddle, Billy Liebert accordion or piano, Muddy Berry d ...
