Perfect touch and tone. He is a direct link to a time and era when the steel guitar was a mainstream instrument. He is a living legend among steel players. There will never be another Lloyd Green.

Thanks for the link Whit.

That was beautiful. The man is 85 years old and he sounds as great as ever!*

* Edit: When I went back and listened to it a second time I realized that I initially missed the part below the video screen about the piece being recorded in the early 2000's.

Unique creativity and execution. He's like fine wine, he gets better with age. Just when you think you have him nearly copied, you don't and he gets more complex. He's pitching no hitters.

Yeah Lloyd sent the Recording to me and Walter; when Russ finished making it a Track from that 20 year ago compilation CD; and here is Lloyd's description to me:
"The Blues Man" is a live recording from sometime around 20 years ago, and remains shrouded in mystery. I played it only at 4 different performances around the time Russ and I were completing my "Revisited" album in 2002."
Brilliantly, Dynamically played Lloyd; thank you so much for Sharing. Love ya,
Ricky

There are many amazingly great pedal steel players, but in a blindfold test anyone who's heard him would immediately know that could only be Lloyd. Truly one of a kind.

That's it. That does it. It's over. I'm crawling back into the cave from whence I came and where I now, no doubt belong.

I'm still in love with his last single, Venus Moon. recorded in 2017

Tasteful, just pure Lloyd.

TO me LG’s style is what I think would have happened if Jerry Byrd would have sattled up on am E9th PSG to stay in Nashville. Pure, conciese, fitting and always tasteful.

The best! Always been my favorite.

Sounds like it was recorded during the JCH era.

What a master! I just listened to this wonderful version of this song and told my wife there is no other instrument on earth that can sound like that, and Lloyd is the master of touch and tone!
