Hey RON...Where do you dig up these old chestnuts ?

I loved that YouTUBE of Alfred...first time I have ever seen him in a 'movie'...I've seen lots of still pics. That video was done about 6 years before he died.

Also, who is the steel player on that Desert clip...?
Did you dig the guy playing a 4 string tenor guitar ?

Mahalo chum ! Great stuff...loved it !!!!

Those sure sound "tinny". Even the rhythm guitars.
