The Steel Guitar Forum

Hey all,

I'm really happy to share Episode 3 of the Steel Guitar Podcast which features Steve Fishell a.k.a. "Fish" on the forum

Steve gives a great rundown of his steel guitar journey, from his start in the California country rock scene, to playing in the Hot Band with Emmylou Harris & Frank Reckard, and lots more. We also spend a bit of time chatting about his biography of Buddy, "Buddy Emmons: Steel Guitar Icon". I read it twice in the lead-up to the interview and loved it both times. It's quite deep, personal, and sometimes pretty dark. I appreciated getting a deeper look at Buddy's musical and technical genius, and who he was as a person.

You can listen to the podcast on the Fretboard Journal website or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Hopefully this interview is a great excuse for some of you to check out the Buddy book and dig into Emmylou's amazing 80s albums.

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing!

I loved the first two episodes.
This really helps me on the long commute to the day job

Half way through and savoring every minute of it - thanks, Matt! This will go a long way to helping Fish repair his reputation as a notoriously difficult subject.

Thanks! The show has been really enjoyable so far!
