A question for Billy Robinson, steel guitarist extraoridaire

Ray Montee · From: Portland, Oregon (deceased)

He Billy..........
When you were busy at age 18 cutting all of those great solo's on Red Foley's Decca releases.......

Were you and Grady Martin both playing thro' the same Fender Twin amp..........

Did they stick you with your electrified guitar in a sound proof room and stick ear phones on your head?

Did you always play with your amp on the FLOOR?

On Tennessee Saturday Night, was the Grady Martin or ZEKE TURNER doing the boogie riff?

Just an olde man with many unanswered questions

Mitch Drumm · From: Frostbite Falls, hard by Veronica Lake

Ray:

Tennessee Saturday Night was from August, 1947--Byrd, Zeke, and Louis Innis on guitars. Gotta be Zeke playing that boogie lick. Tommy Jackson on fiddle.

I don't think Grady and Billy began recording with Red until early 1949.
