A couple of years ago I was doing a house gig when Daryle and his band came in. We kept asking if they wanted to set in and do a few. Well after an hour or two of drinking they decieded to get up and man what a singer and band. They were all great guys and we stayed on stage for 3 hours doing Johnny Paycheck and George Jones songs.I have to admit I didn't know who he was when he came in but he is definitly country and I like that. |

o.k. let me clarify my last statement since the "nashville police" contacted me. seems i said it wrong.... how come we can never compliment an excelent steel player, without having someone say something about how great the top 40 krap coming from nashville is better. yes they play "what is needed", but i like hearing what is FELT.!!!!! here we go... first of all, all i meant was this: nashville top 40 sounds the same TO ME.. MY opinion, that's all. nashville players are the best! wonderful at sitting down and in a day or two putting out a platinum album. really they do it faster than that... i merely meant that MIKE JOHNSON'S playing was a breath of fresh air.... it's been a while since an album out of nashville made me pull over and rewind a "steel ride" to make sure it was what i heard. last one was some work by SONNY GARRISH... i couldn't carry Paul Franklins steel much less play it...great player, great guy... i just simply love to hear steel with true emotions that are easy to hear. not something smashed all together between the keyboards and on fire electric guitar... long live honky tonk steel...

theresa, we agree! email to you on the side... i just love it when the "studio" let's those guys cut loose... and on top of that is when they do it on cover tunes that take me back to the days when my momma would dance with me, with my feet on top of hers across the kitchen floor..... wow! "that's the good stuff" (kenny chesney's new one that is touching) take care, ------------------ daymon lapoint |

Some undisputable musical rules.... 1) Studio players don't play with any feeling. I haven't heard Daryls' album, but if it's traditional country I'm really tempted to take a chance on it. I went out a couple of weeks ago and picked up the CD of "Together Again/My Heart Skips a Beat". WOW!!!!! It had really been about 20 years since I had heard it, and it's been like a total breath of fresh air. Highly recommended. |

I heard the title cut "Why I Sing This Way" twice today on Top 40 radio. It is a great tune you HAVE to hear it. Great Hook... The songs tells of a boy who was beat by his mother with a George Jones Album when a child. That's why he sings this way (in a low possum TWANG) Enjoy! TH |

Daymon: Correction to your previous post regarding the fiddle player on Daryle's new CD. Danny Parks provided the outstanding ACOUSTIC GUITAR on the tracks whild JOE CAVERLEE is playing FIDDLE. Giving Credit where Credit is Due - THIS ALBUM IN MY OPINION IS A MUST HAVE FOR ANY CLASSIC COUNTRY MUSIC FAN. ASKING YOURSELF CAN IT BE THAT GOOD? THE ANSWER IS Y E S !! IF YOU DON'T CARE FOR THIS - NOTHING WILL MAKE YOU HAPPY IN THIS WORLD OF COUNTRY MUSIC!! THANKS Daryle for doing this album - they are all keepers!

Well, I had a whole bunch of things to say about this album, but you beat me to it. About all I can add is it's great to hear a singer sing with feeling and a steel player that plays with feeling. My God,it's been a long time. In my book right now Mike Johnson is #1 |

Merle Haggard once explained this about his band: "They're all great musicians and they can all play. The just don't know when they're gonna get to play". I think that's the case with the great steel players doing Nashville session work today. I know Paul "gets" to play on the Alan Jackson records, and perhaps to a lesser extent on George Strait sessions. Certainly, no lack of feeling and emotion there. It seems to be a matter of production and the mix. That's what Daymon is getting at. ------------------ |

thanks Ron. couldn't have said it better myself. they are all wonderful musicians. it's great to hear them be turned loose to and extent, i guess that's where the production stuff comes into play.. ------------------ daymon lapoint |
