Doug LaValley was a steel player as well lead guitar and fiddle. Maybe he did the playing himself.

Probably not Jim in 1971. He was probably in junior high.

| Right you are Bill, and Jim's bio says he didn't even get his first pedal steel until 1977. The label, STOP RECORDS was Pete Drake's outfit, but it doesn't sound like Pete to me. Going by the the touch and tone (and the early date) I'm thinking it might be a young Dicky Overbey, but the Nashville players may be better able to pin it down. |

| In 71 Jeff Newman and Larry Sasser were being hired by Pete Drake. Could be either one. |

| Thanks to all! Great playing from an era when hot steel guitar was much more prominently featured than today, sadly. |
