Forgotten Nashville Steelers?

Dave Ristrim · From: Whites Creek, TN

So I'm looking at a 1986 LP by Dennis Robbins called "The First Of Me". The steel player listed on the tracks is Tommy Irwin. Why have I not heard of him before? How the heck does this happen? Where is he now, and what is his Nashville story?

Well we know he didnt have a pro tools rig so he did have to be here. Somebody tell us.

I saw him with David Allen Coe, years back, and he worked with rocker Warren Haynes, too.

Surprised you haven't heard of him, Dave. He's sorta right up your alley, stylistically! Smile

Yeah, Warren Haynes also played guitar on the Dennis Robbins LP as well. Maybe Mr. Irwin decided to do something else other than music?

Tom is still Steelin with a Nashville band called "Mammoth Jack" according to their MySpace page at

Cool. I know most of the guys in Mammoth Jack. It's been a while though. I'll check out the myspace and see if they're playing in town.
Thanks
