I've always wanted to sing with you Jody-man!!

It wasn't me on the Louis Jordan recording, incidentally. I was only two years old and not getting very many sessions at that time. Come to think of it, I'm STILL not getting very many sessions!

Keep trying you will have the answer Im sure.

Here's one for you,,,do you play cards??
Do you know one card from the other??

Speedy West was born January, 1925 at Springfield, MO. He was raised on a farm at Strafford, MO about 10 miles east of Springfield. He milked cows among other farming jobs. Lucky for us, he desired to pursue his dream of playing the steel guitar.
He arrived in CA around 1946. He had one of the very first pedal steel guitars made by Bigsby.

I'm so glad to call him a friend, and one of my mentors.
