Great live version of the tune "Muddy Water" from Stonewall live in the UK. Can you guess who the steel player is?

Its gotta be Buddy Emmons...you can see just by the way he is dressed and that famous Derby he's wearing.

There's a close-up shot at 1:10 where it sure looks to me, from the shape of the nose, that this is no Buddy Emmons. I believe it is an Emmons-impersonator.

Not Buddy E., but I'm not sure who it is.

Ya know something Jim....you might be right......I never thought about that.

Definitely not Buddy. Just listen. You don't have to look.

I don't know who it is either but I agree with Greg that it doesn't sound like Buddy. At first it looks like him from a distance until you see the closeup with the nose at 1:10 as Jim pointed out. Anyone actually know who it could be?

May be Koos Biel......he has Emmons down to even the Derby he wears. Great player.
