For the record........
that song on the JBFC site is NOT Jerry Byrd.........
but rather, Ray Montee on his four neck BIGSBY steel.
It was taken from our live airing of a country music show over a local television station during the mid-1960's.
I realize anyone that listens to that tune and the playing on the JBFC site has to realize IT's NOT Jerry Byrd. Just for the record. |

amazing example of how good jerry was, burning tempos and super relaxed phrasing with just enough eight notes to emphasize the tempo that the song is played at. incredible. |
Yes thats great! At some places he have lot of energies but is always relax! |

My apologies and congratulations, Ray. That's a very nice version. _________________ Brad’s Page of Steel
