If you could spend an hour with any Steel Player(alive or dead) learning licks who would it be.
Although we didn't see eye to eye all the time I would have to say Bobby Seymour.

Altho' I did get to stand outside his music studio in Harry's Music in Honolulu,.......(see JERRY BYRD's photo page)
and altho' I got to sit down and actually got to hold the Rickenbacher that he had just finished recording his "Memories of Maria" album with, in his residential music room in the basement of his Nashville home,
I never had the opportunity to have a lesson from the Master....... Oh what I would've given to have just one lesson from this wonderful musician. |

So many selections, so little time!! Emmons, Day, Newman, Seymour, Chalker, Herby, Hal. An hour with any one of these fine fella's would be hair raising!!

Jeffery, I said only one but since you started it I guess I'll have to choose Lloyd Green,Buddy Emmons, Paul Franklin and Junior Knight. Truth is there are very few players I don't like.

yeah, I spent time with Bobbe talking about girls, riding motorcycles and flying , don't think we spent too much time behind the steel guitar lol...Bobbe was a very interesting person, he would sell his mom if he could, but he was lots of fun to be around...RIP Captain

There are two steel players I'd like to spend an hour with. Both of them are Buddy Charleton.

Julian or Eddie Long. Not to learn anything (I've retired from that). Just to talk to and laugh with.

Just about any of you guys would do for me.
I watch your videos and listen to your tracks and you'll probably
never know how much you've done for me.
But in the immediate sense, I'd like to get a couple days with Mickey Adams.
He seems like a hell of a guy, and a veritable encyclopedia of steel information
and he's not afraid to share it.

It would be Bobbe Seymour........what a Steel Guitar Master and what a character!! Would love one last hour with the Bobster........one caveat though!! We spent more time talking about Flying, Planes and Road trips than steel guitar....sooo, this time, it would be just Steel Guitar tips and music....God keep you strong Bobbe!! Miss ya!! TX
Rgds,
Ron

My personal choice would be one more hour with Jeff Newman. I'd give anything to hear him say to me... "you're making it hard!" Maybe I'd believe him this time.
