We all enjoy the "zany" humor of our buddy
Smiley, he makes us laugh and smile with his one liners. "BUT" I received a CD today from my good friend Smiley, and it made me smile sure, but more than that I heard some of the "Best" steel playing I have heard in my life. Some take him for his humor,I do as well but his talent is excellent and his playing is superb.His ability to play pedal steel and double on Dobro knocked me out.

I dont know whether or not Smiley's CD's are for sale,but they should be.

This is the collection of numbers played by the finest human being I know.

AMAZING GRACE
ONE DAY AT A TIME
JUST A CLOSER WALK WITH THEE
I'LL FLY AWAY
HOW GREAT THOU ART
PEACE IN THE VALLEY
PRECIOUS MEMORIES. " THIS IS A SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO SHOT JACKSON AS THIS WAS SHOT'S FAVORITE TUNE.

Thank you Smiley, you are a great steel player. Those of you who would like to hear this wonderful CD will have to contact Smiley
I dont know if they are offered fo sale,BUT
THEY SHOULD BE.

Thank You

Jody Carver I'll say it over, and over, THEY
SHOULD BE FOR SALE.

The last thing I clicked on before checking in over here was another "zany" email from Smiley. I never know what's going to fly out of my inbox... Jody, I don't know if Smiley's gifted you with his collection of past country recordings, but you need to bug him for that one too. A great player as well as a world class nut. Love ya S...

Smiley brings a smile to every one he comes in contact with. When he walks down the street in Nashville, literally everyone he passes smiles. (A few of them even laugh out loud.)

Smiley is also a singer......I have an autographed copy of his vocal CD from a while back...it's aptly called 'SMILEY ROBERTS SINGS-WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT'----a real 'wax to watch'.
