Ric,

I swear, I was just going to post that clip and then realized I'd better do a search.

The first live music I ever heard was at Wills Point. They had a swimming pool there, and my mom took me when I was four. There was a chick singer with drums and bass. In the 50s in Sacramento, you could hear Billy Jack Wills on KFBK radio about once a week. Later I took lessons from Tiny Moore.

Anyway, please excuse my ignorance, but is Buddy raising his left knee to hit a lever/pedal?

Yes Buddy is. That is a pretty standard change on modern steels. Lowers 5&10 1/2 tone

Glad yall enjoyed the video. I will get some more of Buddy posted soon.

Darryl, Buddy lifting his leg look like he is passing wind. It's a joke...
