As of last night my band is joining forces with Larry and Judy Jeffries. They do great old county with tons of steel. Doug Jones played with them for about 5 years. I have some BIG shoes to fill as Doug is a monster player and can fill up the air ways with a ton of steel.
I guess I will just turn up my PP and let the guitar do all of the work. Oh to play Look At Us and Farewell Party will be tone to die for, I live for these moments.

Bryan as long as we do not have our smelly shoes off I guess we will all be OK.

Larry, I only wear a 9 and you've got a D-10! How do you think I felt following Eric West who followed Harley James?
I'm happy to hear Larry & Judy are firing it up again. Their repertoire and harmonies are the perfect gig for a steel player with tons of Price, Bush, Street, Tammy & Connie; all the great standards.
Portland's illustrious Tone-King and right hand technique master Larry Behm will let the house know there is steel to be heard and enjoyed!
Mash a pedal or two for me and best regards to Larry & Judy. |
