Yup. Lloyd Maines defined perfection with every note in that song.

So Much Like My Dad-Buddy Emmons
Posted: 16 Oct 2004 6:46 pm
Still my fave is John Hughey on Conway's version of "I just destroyed the world".
Some of my favorite Buddy rides are Everything on Steve Young's "Renegade Picker" album and "Adelida" by George Strait.
Oh, and most of the songs already mentioned here.

Buddy Emmons playing with John Sebastian (from the Lovin' Spoonful) on "Rainbows All Over Your Blues". Sebastian even refers to Buddy in a line in the song. It's a great run throughout the entire song, and an especially bright solo.
I am not usually a Buddy Emmons fan, but this song was one of the first that I heard with a noticeable and impressive pedal steel, and it still holds its own today.

"Promises, Promises" with Lloyd Green jerking the strings off his Sho~Bud. Did I mention that Lynn Anderson had a small part on the record also. 
If this song was to get disqualified, I'd have to settle for Buddy Charleton doing a ride on an ET song "Before I'm Over You'. The song was only a filler for ET but I still get chills when I listen to Charleton do the turn around on it.

How about western swing on E9th? In that genre my favorite ride is the following break by Buck Reid on a CD which my band leader Andy Martin recorded in Nashville in 2002. http://homepage.hispeed.ch/updowncat/music/shewearsherlove.mp3 The song is called She Wears Her Love Just Like Texas, written by Paul Hotchkiss

My current favorite that i hear on the radio sometimes, is on the Pam Tillis song "Maybe it was Memphis" tune. Man , that is about as good as it gets for my ears. ( I wonder if that guy could ever pull that off again? ) Bob

Last year someone posted a live version of Dire Strait's "Walk of Life" with a ride at the end by Paul Franklin. Mark Knoppfler brings him in by saying "Best Pedal Steel Player In The World - Paul Franklin..." His solo is just incredible, I must have listened to it 20 times! Just never runs out of bullets, that guy.
I also love Bruce's rides at the end of Skagg's "Highway 40 Blues", epitomizes good tone, taste and articulation.

A couple BE moments not thus far mentioned are Buddy's solo on Gentle On My Mind from a John Hartford record. Really cool.
A more obscure one is Buddy's playing on "We all smell good on Sunday" which I *think* comes from Dillard, Hartford & Dillard. I'd love to snag a copy of that. I heard the tune once on KPIG radio (on the web). Great "bluegrass" pedal steel.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Lynn Kasdorf on 22 October 2004 at 12:41 PM.]</p></FONT>

Impossible to pick one. So many great ones by so many great stylists.
Lynn, I thought I had the DHD album you mentioned, but I don't see that cut on the one I have ["Glitter Grass".] Buddy Emmons does pedal steel and dobro duty on it though.
Novelty cut titled 2 Hits and the Joint Turned Brown
can't tell if Buddy plays on it but he is credited with background vocals so he may be contributing that way. Also a dobro tune... "Artificial Limitations" which is either Buddy or Rodney..either way, it's one of my dobro intrumentals for awhile.
I believe they did another album, or maybe more together [DHD], so it may be on that one.
As for 'Rollin', not to take anything away from the awesome Mr. Emmons, but if you've never heard Mike Smith's rendition of this tune, you owe it to yourself to do so. He has a seamless passage about the third or fourth time through that is guaranteed to make your ears perk up. What a brilliant musician he is! Gotta get the CD. Sorry for the detour, carry on.

Also on Dale Watson's Dreamland: Ralph Mooney on "Never Ever". That Bakersfield style is stunning to my ears...
Garth you are right about Don Pawlack's ride on the title track, it soars.

"We All Smell Good on Sunday"was on"Tennessee Jubilee",a Flying Fish album by Benny Martin and Lester Flatt...with Buddy Emmons on steel...great album!
Posted: 24 Oct 2004 3:35 pm
That Benny Martin album is great.
I would also like to mention John Hughey on Dickie Betts' "Long Time Gone" -- Smokin'

Grant,
I hate to be the one to tell you but you really should know this. The Buddy Emmons cassette "On Tour" contains two songs that were put on by mistake and they are "Roll In My Sweet Babys Arms" and "Farewell Party". Those two tunes were played by Herby Wallace.
It created a lot of talk back then, I guess it's been so long ago that everybody's forgot about it.

The one and only Herby Wallace, How about "On Tour with Herby Wallace"

Tom Brumley on Rick Nelson's "Sing Me a Song".
Posted: 25 Oct 2004 6:20 am
Steve- thanks for setting me straight- I'll look for that Tennessee Jubilee album.
And Jerry- on "two hits", Buddy plays through a wacky auto-wah effect. Gotta get that record too.
Boy I'd love it if these were available on CD (hah!).
marijuana blugrass at its best

Lloyd Green's intro etc.. on "I Want You To Know" from the Paycheck tribute... great stuff!
Posted: 29 Oct 2004 2:51 pm
Not that it matters, but I also played on Just A Closer Walk With Thee on the same album. Tom Bradshaw put this album out many years ago. It was recorded live in Atlanta, GA around 1980 or 1981 and to this day there is no real explaination as to how it happened. Also, for what it's worth I was playing a Zumsteel at the time and Buddy was playing the early Emmons LeGrande prototype.
Anyhow it was just one of those things. Also, I might add that for what it's worth when this album was first released, I received a call from one of my students who could tell it was me playing as soon as he heard it!

I think that Tom, bless his shiny little head, got the master tapes of the concert mixed up. For what it's worth, a have about two dozen "promotional copies" of that cassette among the stuff I got from him. I'll send one to anyone who requests it with a Forum donation.

Lloyd Green playing on the old Lynn Anderson records. That's what made me fall in love with the steel.
Bob Hempker playing ANYTHING behind Loretta! I have the "On the road with Loretta & the Coal Miners" album and a CD called "Coal Miner's Daughter," which was recorded at a live show in Edmonton. His playing makes me remember WHY I love the steel. That man is a seriously underrated player!
