| The song is "My Big Iron Skillet". I've got a guess but I'm too chicken to put it out there. Seems I should know this from forum posts but I can't recall. |

| ......but seriously ladies and germs.....cool intro with a real active thumbpick. I want to guess that it's Mr. Myrick but the background "little picking" (as I think of it) fills are not as active as I am familiar with from from Mr. Weldon. I know that somebody knows the answer to this....... |

Let me check my Wanda Jackson record when I get home...
Buck Owens played most of those great guitar parts on those Wanda records. Maybe it was Mooney on the steel... |

| Some of the things she did in the 60s also had Curly Chalker on her recordings. |

| I don't know, but if Wanda Jackson had married Harold Hughes, then remarried Henry Kissinger, she's be Wanda Hughes Kissinger now. |

| My initial responce is Hal, but after seeing Hal and Weldon many times on the Opry, I would have to say that it easy could be Weldon (I used to have to look over to see who was playing). |

| Well, I listened to the song on Record Lady's site, and I hafta say that in sound and style, it's very similar to the playing in Dolly Parton's song "Dumb Blond". |

| Barnes and Noble list two steelers, Ralph Mooney and Pete Drake on the Bear Family collection. If that's the case, I'd guess Mooney. |

What Reggie said...

David, sir, you win my everlasting appreciation. Take that and a coupla bucks and get yourself to starbucks and buy a cuppa joe.
I was flipping a coin between Weldon & Hal and Weldon won the coin toss but Mr. Green trumps all. Thank you Lloyd, thank you David, thank you everyone else who chimed in---thanks David Nichols--Bear family info is usually good enough for me but not this time, I guess.
Hey Dan Tyack--I looked at that Wanda Hughes Kissinger again and I'm so outraged at how bad that is that I challenge you to a cutting contest!
I Wanda Wanda who,b'dooo who.
Who wrote the book of love! |

| If you read a little more carefully, David, you will see that you (and Lloyd) are the recipients of my appreciation. While it is truly very sincere appreciation and while I place a lot of value on my appreciation, that appreciation and your 2 bucks will get you a cup of coffee. It's a tuff world out there. Once upon a time my appreciation and a nickel would get you there. Maybe my appreciation is depreciating. |
