Cowboy "Eddie Long" while touring, I think he played a U-12

Here's a link I found sometime back:

His guitar was a Sierra U-12. He played for Hank before Mike Daly started playin' for Hank.

George Edwards played steel for Hank Jr. in the early '70's. George eventually went to work with Kitty Wells & Johnny Wright and spent many years with them.

I'm pretty sure that Sonny Garrish played on some of Hank's big hits from the 80's...

Eddie was the house steel player with Sonny Duke and the Sundowners in the 70's, In Birmingham Al. Hank hired the whole band I believe, including Wayne Turner, and Cliff...Cowboy if you read this, whatever happened to Mike Schell?...Mickey
