Who played steel for the Wilburn brothers tv show? I missed most of those shows because I was busy entertaining with my group and didn't have much time to watch a lot of tv. Now it's catch up time in between recording sessions. Thanks for any and all help. Wishing everyone a happy and healthy new year, Rich |

Three super steel players done that show, Hal Rugg, Curley Chalker, and Don Helms, they may have been more. _________________ Email: azpedalman@gmail.com

Thank you very much, Fred and Walter for your response to my querie. The steel player that I saw was Curley Chalker. I didn't recognize him as he was so much younger back at that time. I met Curley in the nineties-he's a great loss. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season, best regards, Rich  |

Richard, if you are talking about last Thursday's show, it was indeed Curly. Chuck Lettes told me that Curly was very smooth and since I have heard the Wilburn's show, I sure agree. He merges one note into the next so smoothly!! |
