The steel players were:
- Don Helms 52-55
- Jimmy Biggar 54
- Jimmy Day 56-62
- Jack Evins 56-58
- Buddy Emmons 62-66
Then there were few sessions when non Cherokee Cowboy filled in. like a.m. mentioned Walter Haynes. Also, the first session lists Eddie Martin on steel.
And Dave, Touch My Heart was recorded in -66, so that'd be an Emmons guiitar.

Hey guys, can anyone help me with who would be listed with the band on the 1954 sessions?
I understand that Jimmy Biggar and the Cherokee Cowboys first session with Price was on August 28, 1954.
Anyone got more on that?

That's the one, Ray's first recording with the Cherokee Cowboys, most of whom were in the Western Cherokees.
Thanks for that Walter. |

Holy smokes!! The Ray Price box set (Bear Family Records) I ordered came in yesterday. Dropped everything I was doin' and ended up listening to half the CD's tell well into the wee hours of the morining. Gotta tell ya it truly is a "bible of the E9th". Jimmy Day's work is truly incredible. CD #8 was worth the $200 alone. If I can ever begin to play the notes he played (no hope for his voicing, I'll just take hittin' the right notes) like he did I will be in heaven. There's over 250 tunes here.
Some of the tunes I hadn't heard in 30 years, some other (great tunes) I had never heard before. It is truly one awesome source of study material. This set along with Jim Loessberg's Ray Price course is gonna be a big tackle.
Now if I can just get about 4 weeks vacation...
(PS: Yep, no background (overdub) vocals on my track of "I wish that I could fall in love today" either. Anybody know what CD "Big Shoes to Fill" is on? It was the only tune I could think of from this time frame that wasn't in the set) |

Walter, you have better eyes than me, thanks again. Actually is Jimmy Day that I like to hear, Ray Price is good but he's kinda there for the ride, it's the steel I love...
Thanks. |
