On Saturday January 15, 1966, Buck Owens and Johnny Paycheck worked a show at the WWVA Wheeling Jamboree in the Wheeling Island Exposition Hall Wheeling, WV. Excerpts of both shows have been posted Soundcloud. Of course, both shows are great. The Paycheck is exceptional - possibly the only available live performance of Paycheck with Lloyd Green from the ’60’s during their Little Darlin’ period.

The only available Lloyd Green live performances I know of are “Jimmy Dean Show†(1/28/66) “Lawrence Welk†(4/29/67) “Panther Hall†(6/15/68). I think Wheeling rivals “Panther Hall.†Lloyd Green is right on the money matching Paycheck before appreciative audience with Buck and the Buckaroos waiting the wings. They take it to the edge.
In 1966, Lloyd Green was playing his black Sho-Bud Permanent “Heart Guitar.†Two weeks after Wheeling he played “Green Strings†on this guitar on the Jimmy Dean Show.

“I started (playing sessions) right after Easter in 1964, and by ’65 he’d built my first Sho-Bud Permanent, with a pearl heart inlay right in the center – beautiful. Kind of an embarrassing little thing on one of the corners – it had the Sho-Bud logo where it was supposed to be, and on the other corner, a cartouche inlay that said ‘Mr. Green’ in pearl. I thought, ‘That’s a little pretentious.’ But it was great. I used it from ’65 until ’67.â€

Thanks Marco - I missed this one, too. Faron 1957 with Pete Wade: guitar / Johnny Johnson: rhythm guitar / Dale Potter: fiddle. Great sounding band.
