Sorry, I can't seem to get the URL up for this YouTube video but I bet it can be found through a search on their site. This performance features the standard steel break for this tune by a steeler I don't recognize and he's playing a D-8 Bigsby. Anybody recognize him and is that Bud's guitar?

I would guess Sonny Burnette. He played on a lot of the Webb Pierce recordings of that era, more than Bud Issacs did, and I believe it's him on the record of "I'm Tired" too...

This must be the one your speaking of. I don't know who the steeler is. Must be someone out there who does. Two clips of the same line-up.

Sonny played on all Webb's recordings except "Slowly".

He took a pretty dry swallow there at the end of his break. I sure know those are hard to get down.

Cool vid! Other pickers are Van Howard on rhythm, Lightnin' Chance on bass, Dale Potter and Shorty Lavender on fiddles.
