Does anybody know who this pedal steel guitar player with Barbara Fairchild is?


"Barbara Fairchild & Brian Sklar - If It Ain't Love Let's Leave It Alone - No. 1 West (Outro) - 1988"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iGuU8ao9UA

Whoever he is, at 1:11 minutes in this video, he does some mighty fast, mighty clean palm-blocking!
He's playing a Sho-Bud guitar, if that helps.

It might be the late Randy Reihhard. I believe he was married to Barbara.

The Prairie Fire Band features Rob Anderson on steel Guitar.

I've seen this steel player on a lot of Canadian shows with a lot of different artists. Based on appearance from other sources including:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRDZs-7dkdA

and the fact that it's Brian Sklar and the Prairie Fire band, I'd say the steel player is Rob.

Nice to see a video with Brian Sklar. I talked to him once. A great guy!

Brian Sklar is a pal of mine, and a great singer, multi-instrumentalist in several different musical genres, and entertainer. And has been for decades, literally.

I called Brian... Rob Anderson is the steel player. He passed away in 2018.

Hi Herb,

Thanks for checking with Brian and chiming in.

Sad to hear of Rob's passing away--he sounded great on that video!
