Of course we know that almost all buck owens' albums have lots of great steel playing by Tom Brumley, I was listening to an old Buck Owens album, titled, Roll Out The Red Carpet. That one is loaded with some awesome playing. |

Check out Buck and the Buckaroos "Live at Carnigie Hall". Don Rich and Tom Brumley are fun to listen to in a live situation. _________________ Ellis Miller

The Buck Owens album "I've Got A Tiger By The Tail" has some really nice Tom Brumley playing on it to. I just converted mine to CD and MP3 this week. _________________ Steeless. |

I like "Live in Japan" even better than the Carnegie Hall album. Lots of great playing by Tom and Don. |

"Instrumental Hits" is very steel intensive and very good. I like Roll out the Red carpet too. |

I have that one, but I haven't listened to it a whole lot. I'm gonna have to dig that one out and have another listen. What mp3 do you use? I have Magix on my computer, but I find it a bit complicated. |

I've got "Live In Japan" too, and to be honest, I also like it better than the Carnegie Hall album. |

Glen - I'm doing it the hard way right now. I have a CD recorder unit hooked up to my stereo system, and I record my vinyl to CD. Then, I use Microsoft Media Player v 11 to rip the CD into my computer as MP3's. I use the same program to burn CD's too. One day soon I'm going to get an interface box and a program so I can play the vinyl directly into the computer.
There's a good thread about this, here:

I have the Instrumental Hits album too, lots of great music on that one. The ultimate album for Tom Brumley instrumentals with the Buckaroos is "Tom Cattin." _________________ Steeless. |

At the age of 10, in 1963, I was dragging my finger on the turntable, trying to slow this tune down, to figure out what TB was doing. That tune is why I play the steel today.
If I recall correctly, the old Stromburg-Carlson turntable had a 16 rpm speed too... |

Unlike the Texas Troubadours,The Strangers and the Brazos Valley Boys,The solo albums by the Buckaroos aren't that exciting. |

The lp`s/cd´s mentioned are just the proverbial top of the iceberg.
Check out the "Open up your Heart" cd and the 1965 Christmas lp, for example.
Over and over again, Brumley comes up with snappy, twangy turn arounds, beautiful and flowing fills on the ballads, and noteworthy solos that really stand out.
He picks just about every note, seldom slides on the fast stuff, and all of this was done with two knee levers and picks that were straight, - i.e. not bent like today.
Moreover, he was in his twenties while doing most of his work with Buck.
Talk about a "natural!" |

Buck's Christmas album has great steel work too.
Edit: I should have read Steinar's post better  _________________ ----------------------------------

hmmmm... maybe not as "pyrotechnic", but they sure "excite" me. I guess I have the "twang" chromosome  |
