Well, Theresa is obviously biased... and so am I.
How about Norm Hamlet and Redd Volkert -- Live at Billy Bob's TX is the best recorded example I've heard.
They have a destinct advantage in that their lead vocalist is pretty good.

Oh Ron, They are great aren't they. But what about Norm and Roy Nichols. Then there's Brumley and Rich.

I gotta go with Phil Baugh and Emmons from the CD's and Church Street Station . . then Chalker and anyone then JayDee and John . . but all the names are great pickers.

Ahhh, another Sunday morning recuperating from slaving over a hot guitar and the World's Worst Bass Player.
Got the Texas Troubadours on Live 365 and a shot of 12th Street Rag by Leon and Almost To Tulsa by Buddy Charleton should be all the therapy I need to recover.
And yes Jack; without a doubt they were the
BEST ROAD BAND ever. I can just see folks at Cain's Ballroom and all the other honky tonks, jitterbuggin' to their music. It was in a class all to itself and set a standard for the others. They were the hottest thing at the time !!
Regards, Paul

I just dug out an old Troubador Album w/ Charleton & Leon, played it through my Bose system, Unbelievable! Included a couple ballads by Cal Smith & Jack Greene, The tone BC was getting THEN was the best ever anywhere! I hear Lloyd went back to his old Sho-Bud for the obvious reason! I remember another Buddy that used to get that tone! kr
