On the cut It Aint Nothin there is a wonderful dobro track. I couldn't find info on who that might have been. Anybody have an idea?
Here is a link to the cut:

edited to add:
I found a reference to Paul Franklin on credits for Kentucky Bluebird, so maybe that's the answer?

Paul Franklin is credited on Pedabro for that collection. I see no dobro mention thus far.

Thank you. I agree that it must be pedabro. There are a couple of licks in there that would have been possible only with a pedal.

Back in the 80's my band opened for Keith in Bryan TX and he had a steel player that also had a Pedabro. He was a heck of a nice guy but his name escapes my memory. Brett Day would remember.
Keith was a nice guy too. We talked bluegrass all night.

His name is Carson Chamberlain. He's now a record producer/songwriter. When he was in Keith's band, he played a Franklin pedabro, and what was different about it was that, in addition to a pedabro neck, it also had an E9th steel neck, so he would play steel and Dobro parts with the same instrument, using different necks. |
