I was just listening to that song, and the soulful steel gave me goosebumps!! Between George's soulfull singing and the steel, what a sound!!

Leigh, Most likely it is Pete Drake on that one. BTW, the song was written by Tom T. Hall. Jason |

Then Sonny is making a very good Pete Drake impersonation! Sounds just like Pete. |

That song was produced by Billy Sherrill, and on George's 1980 "comeback" album, "I Am What I Am." I was most certainly Ole Pete a-warblin' as only he could. According to musicians I know that played on that album, it took forever to make because of George's lifestyle problems at the time. eek!
That is not Sonny's tone, touch or licks. |
