I'm surprised to find that out. I always figured it was Buddy Charleton, since both he and Cal were in E.T.'s band.
Interesting... |

| I thought it was Charleton too, from talking to Cal about a year ago. |

I think the general consensus was that it was John Hughey, playing Pete Drake licks, with Weldon Myrick's tone, and Buddy Charleton's guitar and amp.
Don'cha' luvit?  |

Near the end of my Fender/Fretts days, I went to a Cal Smith show to see who was on steel and perhaps an interview with him.
It was John Hughey and Cal couldn't say enough about him. I don't know who was on the record other than what has been posted here but I do know The Two Of Them Were Dynamite. Then I got tossed out by a security guard. That was hard to take but not the end of the story.
A month or so later, our band was mainlining a local Charity, Proably The Home For Unwed Mothers as I recall those days. The same guard was there and I stood tall and told my Boss, I wasn't playing unless that JERK was ejected.
And that is exactly what happened !!
Regards, Paul |

No 'fence taken Roger. As a matter of fact,my "skivies" are probably more "famous" than me.
(which ain't sayin' much in the first place!)
