| Also great twin fiddle playing on this record which even makes the Steel playing sound even better. |

The musicians were listed on the back of the "A Trip in the Country" LP: Guitar - Harold Bradley, Ray Edenton, Charlie McCoy, Chip Young, Piano - Pig Robbins, Bass - Bob Moore, Drums - Buddy Harman, Steel - Buddy Emmons, Fiddles - Tommy Jackson, Buddy Spicher. Produced by Jerry Kennedy.
It was the beginning of a very good decade.

Even with the most advanced lead players in the business, Spicher, Emmons, Gimble, the focus remained on Roger's singing and the lead parts had their chance to shine at the appropriate time. That my friends, is what separates the men from the boys.
Buddy Harmon is one of the best drummers of all time, but there was no effort to make his playing out in front and in conflict with the vocals.
Bob Moore - solid as a rock.
Roger, producer, session players, and engineers all get an A+ on this one.
Am I the only one who notices the quality of these recordings as compared to today's sound where everything is fighting for the lead spot?

I just edited some errors in my previous post - I have "A Trip in Country" in front of me now. Roger writes in the liner notes:
"Before the days of "Dang Me," "King of the Road" and such, I was a young, ambitious song-writer walking the streets of Nashville trying to get anybody and everybody who would to record my songs.
All in all, I wrote about 150 songs for Ray Price, Ernest Tubb, George Jones and Others
Some were hits, and some were not. Here are a few of the better ones. In the beginning , I created heavenly, earthy songs."
-Roger Miller |
