Steel Player

Post by Murray McDowall »

Hi all,
Does anyone remember, or know how to find who the Pedal Steel player was on Kenny Rogers’ version of “While The Feeling’s Good”?

Many thanks, keep well.

Many thanks Ian. I thought it was Pete Drake , but wasn’t sure. A great track IMO.

Stay safe & keep well,
Murray.
