Good Morning,

Here's an old Jimmie Rodgers song in a newer version from the mid-70s:

Enjoy the music!

Hi Steve and Paul,

Looks like there is no discussion about the singer and the steel players, so here's the full musician list:

Paul Charron - Drums
Billy Linneman - Bass
Jerry Whitehurst - Piano
Johnny Gimble - Fiddle
Jimmy Capps - Electric Guitar, Rhythm Guitar
Jeff Newman - Steel

The track comes from the album "How I Love Them Old Songs" (1974)

Kind Regards, Walter

I thought it was James Burton on lead guitar. Jimmy Capps, he plays almost better than him :oops:.

I knew there was something special about that lead player. I wouldn't have guessed, but in retrospect I must say aha! of course it's Jimmy Capps. I will forever treasure his guitar playing on the Wilburn Brothers show with Curly Chalker. What a great duo! They fit together like a hand in a glove. But then, that's what experts do...

Walter , it was also nice to hear Jeff in a way removed from his most familiar setting: The instructional records.
Nice to see how he played commercially like he taught. That was another aha! for me.

Johnny Bond, IMHO, one of the most unappreciated singers and songwriters in Country Music. I don't think it helped him when he became comic relief for Gene Autry.
