The Steel Guitar Forum

The first band I was ever in was actually called 'Ten Ton Tom'. Currently playing with 'HotWingJones' changed from 'HotWingJesus' which apparantly angered some closely connected with the band.

Favorite thing I've seen on here is 'Dildo Daddy and the Vibrations'! Fantastic!

Id love to hear it, Bill. I have made a few recordings where I play every instrument on it. I always like to hear songs done almost entirely by one or two people; let me know how to get ahold of a copy.

Tomorrow evening Buddy Cage and NRPS will be playing a festival in Falling Waters WV. Other notables are Peter Rowan and Tony Rice.

And I definatly meant to post a new topic on that one. Sorry!

I apologize in advance for the newbie question...but who was the steel player on Stand by your Man? I have the CD and the tape, but the steel player is not listed.

I dont know the album it's on, but find "Canon in D" by Buddy Emmons. Continues to blow my mind and is a must-have for ANY steel player! Maybe someone else on here can tell you what album it's on...

NRPS 'Home Home on the Road'....some of Cage's best stuff..

It may have been later on, Jerry played steel on "Oh Mommy, I aint no Commie" from "Tarkio"- the album with One Toke Over the Line.

Thanks everyone. Man, I was surprised at the amount of responses I got! Will be in contact

How about Brewer and Shipley with Jerry Garcia?

Chuck Rhodes? The weather guy?

Thanks Bo.Apologize about the repeat. I am new to the forum, and did a search for it, but with no avail.

what are the changes of the "franklin pedal"?

Im relatively new and probably should not get involved with this topic, but my first guitar was a Sho-Bud Maverick. I played a Carter Starter, and much preferred the maverick. I wont comment on the technical aspects of why, because I'm not checked-out enough by far; but I'll still stand by the maver...

no..but I would love to hear it. anyone know of any clips?

Thanks Michael, Ive suspected that for a while but had no was of confirming it.

I play a vintage mid 70's single neck Emmons. This guitar was converted to an All-Pull supposedly by Paul Franklin SR. Now whether thats true or not I have no idea. But Im relatively new to the instrument so naturally I dont trust myself tinkering underneath of of it, so I really dont. After about a...

cool c6th solo at the end

Corey

Yes, not surprisingly they pick his solo to fill the screen with logos. Most of the people watching probably didnt know what he was playing anyway.I dont know how many people asked me after a gig if I was "playing some sort of keyboard or something?" His stuff with the Great Speckled Bird ...

Perfect palm blocking. Cant wait for another lesson from him!

I found a really cool version of Truck Drivin Man done by NRPS on youtube

His style never ceases to amaze me!

I have to apologize, im pretty new at all of this, as ive only been playing for 2 or so years. But one of the many steel players I really like is sneaky pete..but ive never talked to anyone that actually knew his tuning for sure. Anyone know? thanks.
