Hank Thomson-green light on youtube

John Burton · From: Manassas, Va

I've recently became a Hank Thompson fan..I guess I always liked him, just never gave his stuff much thought untill recently. Heard a few songs some months ago, then ordered a CD etc.
Anyway, I really like this video on Youtube and was wondering if anyone here knew who the Steel Player was:

It's Bert Rivera, Texas Steel Guitar Hall of Fame

On another clip on the same site is RUB-A-DUB-DUB
in which Hank has 2 steel players...Rather interesting. Not often you see 2 steel players in a band.

George, that would be Pee Wee Whitewing on the left and Bob White on the right. I believe it's in the 1953--54 era.??
