If Dicky Overbey would.....
If Mr.Overbey would only make some instructional material,I would be in Steel Guitar Heaven!I've been listening to Amber Digby and Justin Trevino CD's and I'm amazed at the licks,fills,and runs this psg master plays.I've figured out several of these licks,but this man is just overwelming!Maybe one day this could be a reality.Dicky is really off the chain!
Andy,trying and trying

Ricky is absolutlely right about Dicky.Ive been following him for a couple of years now.I go watch him ( Actually study him) and Jake Hooker every time I get the chance,the first thing I remember thinking about him was how passionate and soulful and just super creative his playing is.He's a game changer,he's the kind of player that you know it's him by just listening.The first song I ever heard him do was Johnny Bush's version of "He dont deserve you anymore" and is still in my top 5 list.
If any of you guys want to hear some samples of Dickeys playing,Ive got a file on my computer of some of his stuff on a MP3 format that I could e mail you.

You're right Ricky. He has a similar touch for the instrument as Jimmy Day did. I saw him play in St. Louis a two years ago. I don't believe anyone spoke a word while he was playing... everyone was so content on enjoying the moment and listening to so much soul in the music. Those CD's referenced in this chain are absolutely some of the best I've heard lately.
I think this may be a nice sample of that passion Ricky is talking about. I found it over on their web page.

I agree with everything anybody says good about Dicky...but, I've never heard anything bad. Playing the licks is one thing but knowing when to use them is another. I've never met Dicky, nor have I heard him play live, but I get the impression that he seldom plays anything the same way twice. Maybe I'm wrong? It doesn't really matter but he my favorite country player.
