I heard an old cut of theirs this morning and was reminded of the great steel work on those albums. I forget who it was though. Help me through my "senior moment" here and refresh my memory. I just loved that bouncy bubbly steel work

Jim, For some reason, I seem to recall that it was not JD. The person who played steel on the albums also toured with them. I remember Paulette stating "He's our secret weapon"

Both Tommy and Jay Dee are credited on their "Highway 101" CD, but individual song credits are not listed. |

For some reason, Steve Fishell is the back of my mind. Course, that may be totally incorrect. I have all of these at home and will look at the liner notes tonite.

The "Bing Bang Boom" album credits Tommy Spurlock, John "Skink" Noreen and Buddy Emmons (Buddy who? ) |

I really am talking about the first two albums with Paulette Carlson. I've got "Bing Bang Boom" also, which doesn't compare IMHO.

If it's the first albums you're talking about, it was definitely Jay Dee and Tommy Spurlock. I saw them open for George Strait way back when...a great band. |

yep...you guys are right.

Anyway, this is some good steel playing.

I'm almost certain the majority was done by Gary Morse. |

If my memory serves me correctly, Steve Fishell played on some Ricky Van Shelton stuff. [This message was edited by Larry Miller on 24 October 2001 at 03:48 AM.] |
