Who Plyed PSG on Top of the World by the Carpenters?

Post by Matt Steindl »

My boys and I are doing a joke tribute band doing tricked out Carpenters, ABBA, Captain and Tenille covers. I was listening to Top of the World, and it has a tastey PSG part that really drives the song. Just wondering who it was?

It was Buddy Emmons and Jay Dee Maness. There is a lot of detail about it in the following topics:

Well at least this one has a good reason ! He's only been on the Forum for 15 days.....

I don't know if anyone said WELCOME to you, Matt but here's mine !! Hope you have as much fun as I do. Besides being a treasure warehouse of steel guitar information, we have a lot of jokers on here and a lot of fun too. It's a gas being here with you all !!

Regards, Paul Image Image Image

Isn't this the same song Lynn Anderson recorded and wasn't that Lloyd on hers ?
