Allmost 100% sure it's Terry Crisp, fantastic player.

Amen to that! Terry's a fantastic player, and doesn't get much mention here, but he can hang in there with the best.

Absolutely Terry Crisp and man does he tear it up on that song.

Terry Crisp! Man what a talent. One of the greatest steel guitarist that has ever lived.

He is a multi talented guy.

I watched him rebuild a motor in an old John Deere tractor and later that evening with his hand bruised and bleeding we went to work as he was setting in for Jim Vest and the Nashville Cats whom I was playing with at the time.

Terry sat down and played the entire gig on Jim's steel guitar. Now that was a challenge in itself.

I would have rather rebuilt the tractor.

p.s. Mike Rohas on Piano. Another musician's musician.

Agreed! Terry knows the instrument inside out and has always been one of my favorites!

The steel guitarist did a sensational job; smooth, fast with great tone and technique.

I've fallen in love with Suzy's great country voice and her guitar playing is right up there at the top.
So many singers can barley tune their own instrument.
Great clip!

Here's a nice E9th break Terry did from a live show backing Reba. Starts at about 1:20 in. Tasty!

Does Terry use a smaller diameter bar than normal?
Perhaps it's just the way he holds it that makes it appear so.

Another vote for Mr. Crisp.

Ray; his name is not "The Steel Guitarist"...his name is "Terry Crisp, the Pedal Steel Guitarist"

The minute I saw his hand on the bar, I knew it was probably Terry Crisp. No doubt he is one of the best.

Saw Terry with Joe Nichols around ten years ago.(This was before Joe became "Nashville-ized" and starting recording such insipid tunes as, 'Tequilla Makes Her Clothes Fall Off"). Joe performed his early hits, a few of Merle Haggard's tunes and some awesome Western Swing numbers, all enhanced greatly by Mr. Crisp's fine steel playing...FWIW: Terry's version of, "Raisin' the Dickens' on an early Skaggs recording ranks among the best that I have heard.

Really annoyed at this !

This great bit of video with the supurb playing by Terry Crisp has been removed.......Why?????
I get this..

"Suzy Bogguss - I Want to Be..." The YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated due to multiple third-party notifications of copyright infringement.

There are lots of nice videos of Suzy singing this song but to take away the best one ! and the steel guitar!!

Dale Rottacker · Post by **Dale Rottacker** » 1 Oct 2014 8:34 am

One of my all time favorites...listen to him with Ricky on Lord She Sure is Good at Loving Me...and somebody, anybody, tell me what he did between 1:50-1:53...Nuts...

Just as the video link says. It got pulled because they caught him too many times posting copyrighted material, which is not only against their policy, but I also believe it might be illegal (not 100% sure about that).

John Davis · Post by **John Davis** » 1 Oct 2014 12:25 pm

I am sure your right Richard but out of the 10 versions it pulls up on one page of you tube..... I wish they had pulled the other nine!
If I could play something a quarter that good I would want people to see it $:\$

Has anyone else got a link to that clip??? please?
