The Steel Guitar Forum

I didn't mean to hijack this thread, maybe we need to start a new one "Re-discovering Lloyd Green". It's great that Lloyd is still with us and still playing as good as ever.

Big Hits on Big Steel is my favorite Chalker recording.

This seems like a good time to point out that I still have about 150 copies of the DVD I had made from his two 1986 concerts. I'm asking $17.50 for them. 15 bucks for the DVD and the rest to cover shipping.

I am not in the business of making steel guitar DVDs. I did this in order to preserve these performances, which otherwise would have been lost.

Thanks Mike Perlowin for putting this DVD together to preserve the memory of a great player. I might say that the great Johnny Davis is playing guitar on the first half of the DVD. I never got to hear Johnny play steel, but he was a monster guitar player. I did get to hear him play guitar a few times at the Phoenix show. He even dazzled Curly on some of his breaks, and Curly was also a great guitar player. I've got to get this DVD out and watch it again, it's been a while.

Indeed. Kudos to you, Mike.[/quote]
