Sneaky Pete Kleinow’s California session work

Post by tom anderson »

Here is a list I made for myself on Spotify of as many songs as I could find of Sneaky Pete recording for others in the 60’s and 70’s. With a few exceptions I didn’t include his FBB or solo recordings since they are readily available. It gives me a good spectrum of his playing over the years. Enjoy it if you like.

Greg Harris... "Star of the Show".
Sneaky at his best, IMHO

Re: the Spotify collection. Steel on Rick Nelson's "She Belongs To Me" is Buddy Emmons.

Well I thought I would open it up in case someone knew of Sneaky’s recordings that I didn’t but someone started adding to it with all sorts of country rock songs by other steel players. Oh well, I went back to private and removed those songs. As much as I like all of them they aren’t appropriate to this list. Cheers.

Great list Tom. Sneaky Pete carved out a great place in my musical brain.
This song may be my favorite one that he played on.

Written annd sung by Bill Payne on the first Little Feat record. I was surprised that the GOLDEN PALOMAINOS resurrected it on their record, back in the eighties.
