Paul: just wanted to say "Bakersfield" is a class-act! Thanks to you and Vince Gill for the excellent work.
Your solo on "Holding Things Together" is incredible.
Great job!!!
Ricky....

| All I can say is this it is an awesome piece of work by Paul Franklin and Vince Gill. If you don't have it, get it. You'll be glad you did. |

It's a WOW album - great.
My all time favourite though is still Franklin & Mason doing "Above and Beyond". I've had an MP3 of it for years - can't even remember where I got it. Anyone have a link to it or what it was off?

| Congratulations to Paul Franklin. It's not everyday that a pedal steel player has co-billing on a Top 40 Album in Rolling Stone. Bakersfield debuted at the number 25 position in the August 29, 2013 issue. Bravo Vince & Paul! |

He has a real knack for tastefully singing his lines between the steel parts and not overlapping and obscuring them. That's really an important quality in a vocalist.
