| I happened onto Gene Watson's 'One and One and One' recently. That's a song of Gene's I hadn't heard before and it's really beautiful. Does anyone know who the steel player was? I know Corky Owens played behind Gene a lot but did he record with him also? |

| Thanks for nailing that down Dave. I’m not at all surprised that it’s Buddy Emmons but I just never heard that he recorded with Gene Watson. |

Buddy is the only player listed on Gene's "From the Heart" album. Check it out. It's great.

| "The Gospel Side of Gene Watson" from 2004 is another one that Buddy played on; he's all over it and sounds fantastic (of course). |

Richard, I just checked for that album on iTunes but it isn't there unfortunately. The Canadian version of iTunes has a scaled down selection of music. The album I did buy is the 22 Hits one and I've been listening and playing along for a couple of days. One thing I really miss about digital downloads is not having access to the credits.
Pete, I think I did see that gospel album on iTunes so maybe I'll get that one later on. Thanks |
