Talked to Smiley today on the phone - Told him I thought he looked like Charlie Daniels...He said "Yeah, Charlie Daniels after taxes!"

No one deserves this award more than Smiley. I have been a fan since the first time I heard him in the late 60's or early 70's with the Compton Brothers then with Tommy Overstreet. I'm also proud to say that he is a friend. Smiley is a true lover of steel guitar and country music. Congratulations Smiley, about time you got the recognition so long over due.

None More Deserving Than Smiley and George
