| I don't know, Reggie... I can't find any real young pictures of Pete but judging by the nose, mouth and hairline, I think it might be. It sure ain't Weldon. |

| It may be Sonny Garish? He played for Bill at about that time. |

| No not Mike.Mike was maybe 10 years old then. There was a guy that played a short time with Bill.Just after Weldon left and just before Sonny Garish. His first name is Bob and he's from Canada. He's still active but I can't call his last name.I'm thinking he played several tunes on the Northern Steel project. Sorry best I can do. |

| I was only 8 at the time.Dad carried me to a Bill Anderson show to see Weldon. Weldon was not there and we were told had just left Bill to play sessions full time.The name Bob Lucier rings a bell. But that was a long time ago,,,,,bb |

That is not Bob in that video. Bob has never played a D-10 and back in the mid to late 60's played a single 8 blonde Sho-Bud.

I think Sonny Garrish did some of Anderson's studio work during this period, but I don't know if that's him or not. I think this is an excerpt from "The Road To Nashville".
Nice looking instrument though.

Bobby, you hit the nail on the head
Just got email from Bill Anderson
Quote:
"Hi Danny:
His name is Bob Lucier.
He is from Canada, and was only with me a short time in the mid-sixties. He was my steel player between Weldon Myrick and Sonny Garrish.
He went back to Canada and worked with Tommy Hunter on television and did quite a bit of recording. He became an excellent musician.
Hope all is well with you and Patricia
Bill Anderson"
Danny
