That is some fine playing, beautiful tone. And, I sure miss singers like that. You could always trust them to pick great songs and sing them...greatly. |

Here is an interview with Bucky Baxter when he toured with Bob Dylan.
http://www.b-dylan.com/pages/samples/buckybaxter.html
Bucky Baxter toured with Steve Wariner in the past and they recorded some radio shows on vinyl, a very good steel player. I read somewhere he was a student of Buddy Charleton. |

Bucky was also one of the original Dukes of Earle. |

I recently read up a bit on Bucky Baxter, and besides playing for Bob Dylan for awhile, he gave steel lessons to Bob Dylan. I wonder how that went. _________________ It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing. |

Outstanding! Bucky is indeed a fabulous player!
Bucky is a former Buddy Charleton student, as were quite a few of us back in the mid-to-late 70's (Bruce Bouton, Pete Finney, Tommy Hannum, Jay Jessup, etc.).
I came to know Bucky back then. He played with "The Good Humor Band" after Bruce left, and the band I was in at the time played some split-bill dates with them in Va. Great memories!
I have always admired Bucky's work with Jim Lauderdale. Here is a sample:

Last time I saw Suzi, she was not using a steel guitar. Very minimalist band,lead guitar, bass and her rhythm guitar. |

Absolutely stunning and horrible news. He is far too young for this. |

This is certainly an unexpected turn of events. I never met Bucky, but liked his playing. I kinda hope he learned of this thread before passing. A lot of us apparently enjoyed his playing. _________________ It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing. |

Sad to hear this, I once had contact with him.
I asked about the Steve Wariner radio shows and he didn't knew they recorded these.
When I met Steve Wariner I spoke about these radio shows and he said he saw Bucky every once in while in Nashville.
Really sad news. |
