New Clip of the Week 12/27/09

Post by Walter Stettner »

Good Morning and Merry Christmas from Vienna,

I hope you all had nice holidays, time to spend with family and friends and maybe some nice gifts!

This week's clip comes from 1975. One hint: The steel player is a new one for the clip of the week. I noticed that I didn't have him so far (shame on me):

Enjoy!

Kind Regards, Walter

Good morning & seasonal greetings to you good sir.

Could it be Ian & Sylvia with Buddy Cage.

Thanks Geoff

I was thinking Robbie Springfield like on those great Frenchy Burke sides - except it sounds like an Emmons guitar.

That's a hard one Walter. I don't know who it is, but I can assume a couple of things. Either the session was on a tight budget, or it was produced by a steel player. One of the few songs I've ever heard that steel plays all the solos and takes most all of the fills. There seems to be a little dobro scattred in there, but I figure it might be the same guy.

I'll take a completely wild guess and say Russ Hicks.

Like Geoff Marshall, I would also say that it is Buddy Cage (but not behind Ian and Sylvia).

Again, sorry for the late reply!

The group is Juice Newton & Silver Spur, the lead singer on this track is Otha Young (who also wrote it) and the steel player is Rusty Young. :)

Kind Regards, Walter

That sounds great, but like the Rusty Young I've heard. Wasn't he still with Poco and playing a Sho-Bud in 1975?
