Jimmy Day on all tracks except "We Could", which had Buddy Emmons.

Recorded March/April, 1960.

Walter played steel on the first cut of "We Could" that Jimmy released back in 1957 on the lp Raisin' The Dickens. The song had been recorded in 1955 and released as a single.

Way back when, there was a Steel Player via Califorhia named something like Jody McCauley who went to work with Jimmy after previously starting out with Rose Maddox and her brothers in the 40's.
