Let''s include every intro, fill, ride, and ending that Mike Dailey has played on George Strait recordings (the few that he's been allowed to play on). For example, check out, "Gone As A Girl Can Get". John Paul |

Rusty Young: with Buffalo Springfield "Kind Woman" from beginning to end one of the finest examples of steel accompaniment to vocals ever by anybody. with POCO: "Pickin up the Pieces" (accompaniment), "Grand Junction" (Instrumental), "Bad Weather"(solo),"Honky Tonk Downstairs" (solo),"Consequently So Long"(accompaniment) Sneaky Pete Kleinow as session picker for Danny O'Keefe: "Quits" wherein Pete creates a string section with multitracked fuzztoned steel guitars. Bobby Black with Robert Gordon doin Bill Haley's "Crazy Man Crazy", wherein the steel guitar is THE only rhythm, lead etc.. in a trio with upright Bass & minimal drum kit- ROCK A BILLY delux! Ralph Mooney- with Buck Owens "Above & Beyond" without which there could have been no Rodney/PF version. Tom Brumley with Rick Nelson & Stone Canyon Band "Last Time Around"; solo, and extended fade outro like a perpetual motion machine. Tom Brumley "Arrowhead"(instrumental) both the version on Pacific Steel Co. and Tom's reworking of the piece on his album In Time Doug Jernigan "Days of Wine and Roses" from Doug 'n' Bucky Emmons "Once upon a time in the West" Green: "Steel Guitar Rag" and "Cocoanut Grove" and whoever played the original solo on "Got my Angel on My Mind that's why I'm Walkin'" plus so many more...

My all time favorite intro and turn around used to be an ET filler song with Buddy Charleton called "Before I'm Over You" until Buddy Emmons slipped into outer space with the intro on "Last Letter" in the Pickin on Shot collection. to me, it is pure ambrosia! Wayne Yakes nailed one of the most beautiful turn arounds ever when he mentions Jimmy Day's version of Farewell Party which is the version I choose to play. Surprisingly enough, no one has mentioned Lloyd Green's efforts on Johnny Paychecks "Jukebox Charlie". Hauntingly simple yet very difficult to execute. Emmons still has my vote with Last Letter!  |

Non-pedal: Jerry Byrd's "Next to Jimmy". Pedals: Curly Chalker's "The Shadow of Your Smile" by Stan Hitchcock. Jerry's "Next to..." was by Ferlin Huskey-B side of "On the Wings of A Dove". Thanks for the memories. Bill Stafford |

Jean Paul, you mentioned a terrific George Strait tune for steel. I guess I assumed that was Paul Franklin. I love that one too. Is Mike Dailey the steel player for George's Ace In the Hole Band? ------------------ |

I'm the world's biggest Ralph Mooney fan and I like his break on Buck Owen's "Excuse Me I Think I Got A Heartache" a whole lot but Buddy E. played one on a Swing Shift CD called "My Weakness Is Too Strong". That thing is awesome. When he goes into the ride the hair on the back of my neck stands up! Man, it's got so much feeling it's hard to describe! Just get you a cool one, turn the lights off, get in a comfortable chair with the one you love, and crank the volume up high and enjoy! Ray Pennington sings his butt off on this one but the Big E's the star of the show! ------------------ |

To Bill Ford: "When I can your name" was Paul Franklin Jr in the studio FYI My favorites are: 4. Farwell Party - Lloyd Green 5. Houston (Gatlin Bros) Buddy Emmons on E9th!!! 6. Highway 40 Blues ( Skaggs) Bruce Bouton - a very underrated great steel player! 7. Look at Us & Don't Come Cryin ( Gill ) John R. Hughey on Steel Many others..... but I love those listed above

Bruce Bouton is a GIANT, not underrated. I know that Ricky Skaggs, Garth Brooks, Buddy Charleton, among many others feel the same way. I still get chills on his opening solo on Garth's "Shameless"! |

Ron Yes, Mike is the steel picker for Strait's band. By no means do I mean this as a slight to either PF or BE. But Mike is a killer!! I'd like to hear more of him behind GS. John Paul |

Clinton Gregorys' If a jukebox had a 45 BE if anybody can get the last part with out capo let me know how please! listen to Emmons on Roger Miller country album. this is the way it used to be and most people want it to be.Jimmy and Buddy play with feeling,and I may have one of the largest colletions of pedal steel specfic audio, over 600, and there isn't any emotion put in the stuff coming out of the studios.I had a friend Roy Buchanan who put more feeling in one note than any one could put in playing all night When you can project emotion like Jimmy or the great violinist thru your instrument, that for me is what it's all about.Thanks for nothing those in the recording buisness, who see only $$, not goosebomps and tears.The only tears are of shame for the accolades laid on a few technical wizards with no heart or soul, Amen |

I don't think anybody mentioned Dickie Overby's solo on "I'll Be There" by Johnny Bush. Real cool. Try to find it if you can, it'll be worth the effort. Dickie (I think) also did a thing on "A Stranger Was Here" by Darrell McCall that was exemplary. I also liked the steel guitar in the Cummins diesel engine radio commercial circa 1972. If anybody knows who did that, please post! C# |
