Tommy sure did.no matter what the song was or what the groove was he played it great and made the steel fit in with the whole landscape of the song,thats what seperates a steel guitar picker from a creative talented steel guitar master. great job Tommy, you da man. Rudy

| Tommy is my steel guitar hero and I was thrilled to see this amazing player finally getting some national exposure.. Super tone. Was that our good friend Dean Parks playing guitar too...? Really thrilled for Tommy, the world needs to hear this guy play. Just the best tone and choice of notes always!! |

| So true Theresa..He had so many hits over the years.....Lionel Richie is a music legend. All the artists who performed with him on Friday night at the ACM Presents: Lionel Richie and Friends in Las Vegas all seemed so excited to be up there with the legend ...The backup band made up of Nashville's finest, were superb & brought the emotion of all those great songs to the table....an amazing show that will reach a whole new audience......I will it remember for a long time.... |

Thanks so much for posting that link!!! I did so want to hear this show...
What great musicianship throughout - Lionel Ritchie is an amazing singer and it's great to hear Tommy covering the lion's share of the fills!
Tommy - I'm only a part of the way through watching this but your solo on 'Easy' was brilliant! I had to take a break from listening to post my vote on this thread for what is the best televised music I've heard in years.
Boy, do I envy you getting to play through all those great songs with those lovely changes! Steel guitar in the most capable hands on the Planet.

These posts on Tommy White playing on the Lionel Richie TV special have got me
drooling!! Seeing as the link appears to have been removed from You Tube???
How do I get to view the show? Have tried keying in the show on You Tube direct
but get nothing?? Any answers-sounds like it's a must to view and listen!
