Is Bobby DeMoss still playing in the KC area? If so, hopefully he could attend whatever steel gathering results from this thread. Great player, great guy.
Same goes for Russ Wever, who resides in KC w ...

The show would have been from four or so years ago. Gene's last two CD's--the recent Then and Now, and 2003's Gene Watson ....Sings--find Sonny on steel. The two before that--Way to Survive ('97) and ...

Kudos to all who are in the Hall of Fame (although the Santo and Johnny thing was a bit of a stretch). Kudos to Sonny Garrish for his many achievements, and (so I'm told) the fact that he is as nice a ...

This is indeed some terrific music! I was fortunate to obtain a copy a few weeks back and have lost track of how many times I've played it. I agree with Steve on the stellar playing by Gregg and John ...

I've always wondered who played steel on this....

Your sure make cheatin' seem easy
And I'm takin' it easy tonight

Gene Watson tune

Kudos to Gene and Ray Pennington for giving Gregg some much deserved latitude on this mighty fine CD. Like Larry, I was initally fooled by the steel emulation on "Ain't No Trash In My Trailer." I also ...

This was indeed co-written by Austin and Lance. Hats off to both these guys for a mighty fine country tune, and here's hoping this one makes it to the masses.

Happy Birthday to a mighty fine guitarist, a man of integrity, a great host, and a true friend. GO CUBS!

I agree with dixieflyer and to take that a step further let's just say she never met a syllable she didn't like.

Kick a** solo by Gregg Galbraith on this Gene Watson tune.....

Is there anyone in Nashville who can "stack" guitar solos (and/or fills) better than Gregg? I think not.

I know this is the Forum and not grammar school but portain is spelled portion. No offense meant--honest.

Merle Haggard has been emulated vocally by many and duplicated by none. His natural inflections, tone, and pitch (and his Frizzel influenced style) have found him a cut above most country singers for ...

These may not be the greatest releases of '99 but they deserve mention.
1. "Johnny Paycheck Live at Gilley's"
This was recorded in 1985 two months before Paycheck shot someone in a Ohio bar and while ...

When a country entertainer sets up shop in Branson he/she is pretty much assured that there will be no country airplay involved with this particular career move. In the mid-80's Roy Clark and a few ot ...

Two songs that come to mind are "I'm Tired" by Webb Pierce (Ricky Skaggs also did a great version of this with Terry Crisp on steel) and "You're Still on my Mind" by Johnny Payckeck.[This message was ...
