Here's a real knee-slapper, from the German television production "Star Parade" circa 1978.
1) Emmy without her trademark J-200
2) Hank miming bass
3) Emory miming non-pedal steel (can anyone identify that 8-string console? Framus, perhaps?)
4) Albert miming what appears to be a Japanese lawsuit-era Les Paul copy
Obviously a pantomime to a backing track with much hilarity for all. Can anyone identify the guy playing the Dreadnaught? The blonde backup singer? Both look familiar, but I can't place them.

Blonde back-up singer and steel player I think are two members of the band
" ABBA". |

Fairly certain that the steel "player" is Emory Gordy, Junior, bassist in Emmy's Hot Band. And the bass "player" is Hank DeVito, Emmy's steel player. |

Chris, I'm ninety percent sure that it is him. At first I thought it was Barry Tashian.
