This is the Outlaws - "Law & Order" taken from the 1963 UK film Live It Up. The lineup is Ritchie Blackmoore (from rock's Deep Purple fame!) far left on Gibson 335, Ken Lundgren on the Fender D8, Chas Hodges on acoustic and Mick Underwood on drums.

By the way, Blackmoore became Mr. Smoke on the Water.

Quite the contrast.

I wonder what they call that kind of dance.

That's a fascinating look at steel guitar in pop music. Thanks for sharing!
