My most favourite steel solo is” Teach your children “, on the album Deja vu from Crosby, Stills Nash & Young played by Jerry Garcia.
Maybe a nice studie object the next time Meine ??????

I'm with Perry hands down, Tom Brumley "Together Again"!!!

Jim Cohen, We grew up many miles apart but I see our influences on steel were similar. The only thing I could add to your list would be a couple of Jimmy Day solos, Farewell Party with Johnny Bush and Sad songs & Waltzes with Willie. BE's Night Life.
