| I'm not Buddy by any means but I know Buddy played on the Pure Country album. Also that's Buddy on the song So Much Like My Dad. |

| There was a song on "Strait Out Of The Box" released in 1995 called "I'd Like To Have That One Back" that has 6 of the prettiest notes ever to be heard as a fill after the 1st line of the 2nd verse of that song. While most any steel player could play those notes, I challenge anyone to do it with that much feeling. It has to be Buddy. |

Jack,
Long time no see. I sure miss that rhythm. 
I checked the internet and found three albums I recorded with George: Holding My Own, Pure Country, and Lead On. Some of the songs were So Much Like My Dad, I Cross My Heart, When Did You Stop Loving Me, The King Of Broken Hearts, You’re Right I’m Wrong, Thoughts Of A Fool, Lead On, Here We Go Again, and Adalida.
Thanks for the compliment Jim, but the title doesn’t ring a bell.

| Buddy, Thanks for the compliment. I sure miss playing with you. Have you retired from session work ? Would consider doing some if it was a good project? |

Jack,
I don’t have the shingle hanging out for sessions on a regular basis but I still enjoy working with old friends. What you call a good project is what I would call a good project and I’d be happy to be a part of it.
And Bill Moran… you took the words right out of my mouth, only my cuss words were worse than yours.

Buddy
After reading your post I went to Napster and I'm listening to those George Strait sessions you mentioned right now.
That is the sound that I try to
copy more than any other style.
I hope you keep on giving us your
great talent.

| Buddy; would you consider doing a couple of videos similar to Jay Dee's? Say one on the E9 and one on the C6? I would love to have that format and I would think many forumites would also. I'm sure you get approached all the time with ideas from well meaning fans like me, but I'm sure this would make a lot of us happy. Shoot, I'd even beg, I don't care, what the heck. |

Wow---could you imagine the interest in any "new" instuctional stuff from THE Big E---sign me up NOW!!
It would be great having Buddy show his "licks & tricks"---certainly on E9 but his C6 playing as well.
Wonderful stuff with George S, too! Thanks Buddy!

| I think Holding My Own was a great album that got overshadowed by the release of the Pure Country soundtrack. Adalida is one of those songs that moves me along as I work. |

Did you check Tab from Buddy? The solo from "Adalida" is there...
(I agree an instruction video, ala Jay Dee would be great! And I still think a tone course would be a good-un, too. Nobody has tone like you do.)

Buddy:
I never could play Adalida like you but it sure gave me a workout. I just thank you for the challenge.
