1) "It's Just a Matter of Time" from Tammy Wynette's "Tammy's Touch" LP. One of my all-time favs. WHO PLAYS PSG ON THESE??
2) "Love Me, Love Me" from same album as above- must be the same PSG player.
3) "Seven Bridges Road" by Ian Mathews- Red Rhodes on PSG
4) "Standing in the Shadows" by Hank Williams Jr. earlier version from LP SE-4513 "the Best of Hank Williams Jr." 1967. WHO plays PSG on this? Kicks my ass.....
5) "Send Me the Pillow That You Dream On", Hank Locklin, earlier rough recording version- NOT LP LSP-3770. The guy is all over this recording- one of best ever. Ralph Mooney????
6) "That's Me", Red Sovine- this PSG (who?) is definitely cryin.....
7) "Hickory Wind" Joan Baez (yes- Joan Baez- probably best version- screw the Eagles!) Who plays on this?????
Thanks, Kip..........

Check out the Conway Twitty, John Hughey tribute by Bob Hempker on youtube. Bob does a phenomenal rendition of John's work on Lost in the Feeling

Chris has it right.
The minute long outro John Hughey plays in Conway T's "Lost in the Feeling." It is the reason I started playing pedal steel.
Yeah.
This is the sound in my head. I grew up loving heavy rock, but was forced to listen to country all day, every day, in the summers as a kid. My dad and I did small construction projects. WWKI in Kokomo, IN was the station...all country, all the time.
It obviously sunk in...because I play steel, and that style is what I aim for...well, that and Lee Jeffriess, too. But, that's another story.
What a great thread!

I had posted this in another thread awhile ago about that 'crying' tone. Seems to me that Don Pawlak sure has it here:

Anything that has Dicky Overbey on it, especially "The Steel Guitar Song" by Kimberly Murray.
Dickey was the master of "the cry".
