Dan Tyack/early '80's.
Wally Murphy/?
Carlos Claveria (Carco Clave)/?
Cindy Cashdollar/?

This is only a start...reminesces welcome. Apologies to any forum members I didn't list here.

I may be opening for them in Napa soon. Who on steel now?
I think Jim Murphy played a little with them before he passed on. _________________ Dave Zirbel-

Eddie Rivers is with them now. Big Jim Murphy played more than "a little" with them. At least a few years, doubling on sax too, as Eddie Rivers does now. I think Herb Steiner played "a little" with them, though. _________________ www.JimCohen.com

I was never "in" the Wheel as a member. I filled in for Lucky in 1979, for about 3 or 4 weeks while his wife Christine was having their first child. I also filled in for Cindy a gig or two a few years later. _________________ My rig: Infinity and Telonics.
Son, we live in a world with walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with steel guitars. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? |
