Thanks. They really buried it in the mix imho. Didn't get how awesome the licks were until I listened closely.
Nuts....I like to hear everything.
The licks he made were beautiful, restrained, melodic. Perfecto |

| Actually Paul Franklin is listed as the studio artist playing pedal steel, dobro, and lap steel. Most artists rarely use players from their band in the studio. |

| I should add that Robbie Flint is listed as also playing lap steel on the album, but I'm not sure which songs he played on. |

| Paul Franklin played on most of AJ's stuff through the years. If you get familiar with different pro steelers' style and licks you can usually tell who's playing pretty easily. |

| That's true. I was listening to some of A J's stuff awhile back and thought, that does not sound like Paul Franklin. Turns out it was Lloyd Green. |
