A really old cut with maybe some pedals at 25:10. Check out how far from the bridge he plays at times!

Looks like Curly had one of those pedals Shot put on the Fenders. Cool footage.

I understand that Ray (Noren) became a jazz bass player after the jazz community in NYC wouldn't accept the steel guitar as a jazz instrument.
