Buddy Merrill is one of the main reasons I started to play steel. Seen him every week on the Welk Show. I think he was the first steel player I had ever seen on tv. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY MERRILL!!!

Me too! If it wasn't Buddy, it woulda been the great Marian Hall on Ranch Party.

Buddy's Hawaiian album "Beyond the Reef" is one of my favorite all time Hawaiian lps!

Just spent a delightful few minutes on YouTube with Buddy showing us what can be done with no pedals, no effects, and no techno-digital legerdemain!
