From a Porter Wagoner show with Roy Drusky. Who is Porter's steeler playing along with Buck Trent and the boys? Standing up here, but played generally played sitting down and also accompanied Porter on vocals in earlier episodes at least a few times (1963, 64 etc).

| Without watching the video. I would bet it’s the late Don Warden who owned the very first Sho Bud best I recall. Don passed away in 2017 I think. |

| It's Don Warden for sure. Don always played steel in a standing position. |

when Dolly left Porter in the mid-70s, Don went with her and became her manager for the next few decades

Saw Porter & Dolly in the very early 70s at the Berkelry Community Theater in California. Don was a real trip to watch. Loved when he would carry his guitar over to a mic to sing backup. I was kind of disappointed to see that a lot of what I thought were steel parts were actul)y played by Buck Trent on his electric banjo.
