Thanks!

Jay

Went to my Brozman collection and he indeed plays this song but without the fire of this recording. I'm glad to be corrected. Wow.

I guess I'm going to placing a CD order today, assuming its available in that format.

There were some collections that Bob B put together and I know Jerry Byrd was on one of those tracks. I wonder if it was this tune and why I associated it with Bob.

I would say that Jerry Byrd recorded this song at least twice over his long career. But always sounded just like ah, Jerry Byrd now. As Ernest Tubb would now-Jerry always has that special little wonderful sound.

As Ernest Tubb would say--Jerry did some fine backup playing with ET as well as solos.

I have this track on a CD called "Stars of the Steel Guitar". It's got some other really great cuts too, keep your eyes open for it.

Hey Paul, does that album have Pete Drake doing Abeline?
If so, I think that's where this song came from

That's IT: Stars of the Steel Guitar. I have that CD. I knew the track was so familiar and I knew I had a recording with Bob Brozman doing it and hense the confusion. What a great track! I'm going to have to dig that up again. I bought that CD before I was into the steel much and it didn't get a lot of play time.

Wow! well it's burnin' whoever it is . . This might be a little off topic but, the technique in the front section, . . . are they called 'hammer ons' and 'pull offs',(like it is for spanish guitar), on steel? If not, someone straighten me out as I'd like to refer to the technique in a future post/s . . .Tanx!
