I think the one in plaid shirt could be Lee Mace from the Ozark Opry at the lake of the ozarks. He died in plane crash several years ago. Scotty henderson would know if this is him.

Could that be Wimpy Sasser on the far right side?

The second from left is Jack Laux. I'll bet Scotty can fill us in on the rest. Bobby

I believe that is Jimmy Day middle on top and J.D. on the right (Dark shirt) and of course Scotty but don't know the rest.---Henry

Looks like Jimmy Day on top and JD Maness, Scotty of course in the picture.

Lee Mace was never that fat, never wore a mustache and was a much taller man. I played a few times on his show years ago, but was never a regular. I was told he didn't care a lot for steel guitar. He was tall and slim and was in fact a pro dancer at one point in his earlier career. You can see him square dancing on the Old Vintage Country music clips out of Nashville.

OK Form the top left to right Roy Acuffs cousin, The guy that invented pac man, Jimmy Day, The guy that invented Ms. Pac Man and Jay Dee.
Of course on the bottom is Scotty and the guy that invented Donkey Kong.
Sorry no Lee Mace in there.
The rest I am just guessing on.

I first saw this photo a few years ago in my cousin’s recording studio. I recognized Scotty, Jay Dee Maness, and Leo /LJ Eiffert (even when like many of us - he really had hair. I would not have guessed the others correctly. I thought “where are the ACM/CMA and FBI/CIA historians when you need them?”

*Thanks to Forumites Bill, Jim, Bobby, Henry, Terry, Jim Bob, and Leo (LJ) for helping to clear this up.
