Here's a song by one of my all time favorite singers and songwriters, and of course some great steel playing, too:

Enjoy the music (and please excuse the little scratch in the middle)!

Kind Regards, Walter

Good morning Walter !

Yeeaah... what a great countrysong and steelplaying to die for. Thank´s much for sharing it. Unfortunately I don´t know who it is

Wish you a nice sunday... regards... Thommy

[Olaf Wiese]

Good Morning,
i think this is Tom T. Hall as singer and may be
Russel Hicks on steel...
Regards Olaf

[John McGlothlin]

Of course it is the Story Teller Tom T. Hall singing and I agree with Olaf on the steel player...its Russ Hicks.

Walter, That's strong - you can really find them. I'm going to say Emmons.

[Rick Campbell]

Yep, It's Tom T. with Russ on steel. That's a real country song....from the same pen as "Sneaky Snake" and "I Like Beer", but Tom T. put the real country ballad soul in this one. Thanks Walter for pulling that one out for us.

[Walter Stettner]

I have always loved Tom T.'s songwriting and the way he tells stories.

Plus Russ Hicks' great steel playing...a great combination!

Kind Regards, Walter

[Cody Campbell]

Russ sure does sound great. Now I've got to go see what it sounds like without the scratch. What LP is this on? And who's doing the great fiddle work?

Thanks for sharing, Walter!

Walter, my friend; I clicked onto your posting and a page came on saying it could not find the Lloyd Green Page. I have DSL but don't know what I did wrong; repeated the clicking 2 or 3 times to no avail. First time this has happened to any of your postings.. Thanks, anyway..Bernie

[Walter Stettner]

Bernie,

Maybe it was a temporary line problem. I checked all of my websites on three different computers, access worked fine on all of them. If you are missing a clip, let me know, I'll send it to you.

Cody, the fiddle player is Murrell Counts. To be honest, I have not heard that name before, but you are right, great fiddle work!

Kind Regards, Walter

[Steve Hinson]

Walter,when I went to work playing guitar for George Jones in 1986,Murrell Counts was one of two fiddle players in the band..."Little"Red Hayes was the other...Murrell had worked with Tom T.and told me he had worked with Glen Campbell when Glen was a teenager in New Mexico...
