April's Fool - Arnett Mills

NO JOKE: On April Fool's day, here's one of my all-time favorite steel guitar recordings. The late Arnett Mills playing April's Fool. So many good licks here, super tone, and full use of knees levers. I listen to this often.

Man, I miss this guy. He was every bit as great a person as he was a player.
