I was listening to J B'S tape Semi Crazy. Does he really do all the pedal steel work and regular guitar work on it. It is very diverse.

| Yes he really does. I've seen him live and he's amazing. I've heard him described as somewhere between Leon Rhodes and Jimi Hendrix and I think that would be about right. |

| tb Henry-if you are hearing what sounds like pedal steel then it is Junior playing his Sho-Bud-not all of the steel on Juniors recorded songs is played on the steel neck of the Guit-Steel-if you listen to his pedal steel playing you can hear that he was influenced by Lloyd,Hal,and Buddy C-Junior is an accomplished player with pedals |

| JB is the reason I got into steel, after years of thinking about it, finally had a Fender Deluxe 8 come my way. Not much steel here in CT, hard to find. Pedals or not, fantastic player. |

J.B. was playing a lot of pedal steel during the 70's. One of my favorites that he played on C6th was I Left My Heart In San Francisco.

JB was on David Letterman playing in the band so we never got to see him much but I wached all the show to see what I could of him.
