Jimmy played steel with the dearly departed and hugely talented roots artist Ray Condo. Any info on him would be appreciated!
thanks,
Drew

| Jimmy spent the last few years gigging and recording with Big Sandy and the Fly-rite Boys. Don't know if he still does. Also a very good guitar player. Plays a custum tele made by forumite Mike Black. Super nice guy too. |

| Saw Big Sandy at Wheatland in 2001. Did Jimmy play an old Sho-Bud? |

| Yup, that would be the first double neck Sho Bud ever, originally built for Ben Keith in -57, such a cool guitar. |

I spoke with Jimmy Roy in Lethbridge, Alberta in June 2006, in between sets of a concert by his latest group, The Knotty Pines, during a western Canada tour. I enjoy recordings of Jimmy's work with Big Sandy, Ronnie (or Ronny) Hayward, Ray Condo, and now, The Knotty Pines.
Here is the Knotty Pine website, with 4 complete performances from their debut CD:
