On the show was Jerry Reid and his daughter. Steel player had a large afro style hair cut with a large mustache. Sounded like Franklin style of picking.

Out of respect for Paul's present appearance, I had kept the photo quite small. But you have forced my hand. Here it is.

I don't know if it was Ralph Emery, or someone else, but the procedure at that time was to keep the band low profile. I remember they would often appear to be in the dark, you could rarely see enough to recognize someone. Sometimes they'd show a close up of the players hands, but it was often the wrong instrument.

The good Lord gave us only so much hormones. If you want to use yours to grow hair, that's your business.
