Archie,
I saw this lineup in the Playhouse in Edinburgh, Magic.

Yes Archie, Bruce and Ray with Ricky. I call this lineup the dividing line . Pre-Skaggs, very good pickin', but post Skaggs, all bets are off, wide open, let it rip. This was a very influential era for Steel pickers and Tele pickers, all of a sudden Together Again was not the big song of the night !

thanks for posting the clip.

Here's a shameless plug of a YouTube that I did, one of the solo's comes right out of One Way Rider. Certainly Bruce was a huge influence on me as well as countless others.

Followed Ricky steady back then. We did quite a few of his tunes. Most of our audiences never got the intensity of the music, though. Oh Well!
What ever happened to Ray Flack?

[Tony Prior]

Last I heard Ray is still in Nashville, playing a little but I heard he was teaching music at one of the Schools or Universities.
