He certainly does :) Trying to figure out what that Keyless is...I think it's an Anapeg..I can just about see and "A" on the decal.

Micky, Al indeed plays an Anapeg as you can see in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2ElVgWZ ... re=related

Hey Guys...
Yeah, Al was awesome on those shows. He played his S11 Anapeg w/half pad, and he also had a lap steel, as well.
Rick, the SuperSix was for James Burton. Al's using my Nashville 1000 for the steel, and he played the lap thru his Risson.
I was fortunate to be in the house band and I got to play with everyone except - oddly enough - Dwight.

Al really played over the top on these shows..the DVD is chock full of great Al-isms. I highly recommend it.

Some of my faves... Lucinda Williams doing A Song For You

Norah Jones doing She....

And, absolutely stealing the show, Susan Marshall doing Do Right Woman.
