I ran across this the other day, no one around here can identify her.

I did not watch all the clip.

Marian Hall?

The late, great, and always stylish Marian Hall.

Lots of posts on this forum about her. Lots of youtube clips with her.

Marian Hall was the steel player. A local mainstay in the 50's, 60's, and into the 70's. I knew her, a very nice lady in every sense of the word.

Sorry, Herb. I thought everyone set (or tried to set) the Forum time to their own time zone, instead of where the forum originates from.

That's what I do on every forum I'm on, so I don't have to calculate how long ago a post was made.

Too bad the solo was so brief and distorted, she had killer chops and tone. One of my all-time fave steelers.

Anyone looking closely at the front of her guitar can clearly see that the name painted there in script looks more like Theresa than it does Marian Hall.

Comments?

RIGHT ON! You're definitely a WINNER!

Just shows to go you........ when you get old like me a lot of things start failing......

First it was my Memory.......
Next it was my Mind.........
Then it was my musical EAR......
Now it's been established my eyesight ain't what it used to be.

Oh well. THAT's what the rest of you SGF Members have to look forward to.

I just wanted to see some documentation and your provided it. You're a great guy!

Jerry, Mitch and Herb, thanks, I had ask Rudy Osborne and 2 other local players, but they did not know. I guess I had never seen that clip before, did not even know Ray ever did that song.

Thanks again

Wasn't that Joe Maphis on the Mostrite?

Stan Schober · Post by **Stan Schober** » 18 Dec 2010 11:51 pm

It most certainly was, Lindy.

I really enjoy Joe's guitar playing.

Too bad his tune "Town Hall Boogie" was deleted from Youtube.

There was a nice steel guitar solo by Marian in the tune.

Joe Maphis is unmistakable, especially with his name on the headstocks of his guitar! His album Fire on the Strings is amazing.

Marian and I were good friends in the 50's and 60's. After that I lost track of her. It was my understanding at some point in time she developed severe Arthritis in her hands and had to quit playing. She was a really swell Gal and I was priveleged to know her.
