For the Pedal Pro Universal (PPU) website, Garry Williams, host on steelradio.com, wrote this special about Sneaky Pete Kleinow.
I just uploaded it.
Read Garry's words. I think he done a great job.

Thanks, Alexander, for the link to the complete bio.
I had no idea, following the links, of the breadth of his cinematic career. But take a look at those artists he's played with.
I had a feeling he was a family man; I don't know how he did it all.
Sneaky--they just don't get any better.

There is a nice full page writeup of Pete in this month's Vintage Guitar magazine (as well as a smaller one on Tom Morrell).
He was also given a writeup in the UK Mojo magazine.

I just got "Hot Burritos" the remastered anthology yesterday and was sitting here listening to Sneaky. The man left an indelible imprint in modern music.
As the liner notes said, "Picture the Flying Burrito Bros. as the trunk of a big ole oak tree with the band's musical descendants as branches running every which way: ..............
Gram got a lot of the press but Sneaky MADE the band's sound IMHO. He also influenced generations of musician's in the process.

I wonder if Scotty will find the video of Pete, sounds intriguing...
