Is this Jimmy Day? Trying to determine who is playing on this disc. Transcription disc were recorded without the union keeping records of the musicians or even the recording dates for most of them. So it is always a chore to figure who is playing on them. There a nice instrumental of (Steel guitar Jubilee) ate the 11:55 mark....So who do you think this is?.....Chris
Sounds like Jack Evins to me. It doesn't sound like Jimmy Day's tone. You can tell on "You Done Me Wrong." Jimmy usually from what I've heard of his stuff played pretty close to the recording.
FWIW, I wondered whether it might have been Buddy Emmons, but "I'll Sail My Ship Alone" is so different than Emmons' C6 based approach to the same tune with Price I feel safe in ruling him out, if he was a consideration.
This is a hard one for me. I will say Jimmy Day played on the studio version of (Curtain in the Window) and this version sounds pretty similar to that one.But that being said I'm not all that up on Ray Price songs.....Chris
My ear says it's Jimmy Day. Having seen Day at the St Louis Steel Convention for a number of years it sounds like his techniques and sound. But this from 58 could be his style evolved in later years.
