Gram Parsons Steel Players

Post by Lawrence Lupkin »

A while back someone posted a fairly comprehensive list of the steel players on individual Gram Parsons songs. Can anyone direct me to it?

Thanks!

That looks right to me, with the very minor point that I don't think Emmons played on Grievous Angel (though my memory could certainly be off here).

We need to turn the TWANG up a little

It's not what you play through, it's what you play through it.

They say that tone is all in the fingers...I say it is all in your head :)
