The Steel Guitar Forum

"Forever" was Pete Drake's biggest talking steel guitar hit. I was lucky enough to see him perform it in person back in the 1960s at a show in Chicago. I believe that he recorded an entire album of the talking steel stuff. I thought I had it somewhere around here, but I've been unable to find it so far. Two of his other talking steel songs that come to mind are "I'm Just A Guitar, Everybody Picks On Me" and "Abilene."

Hope this helps.

Just noticed the liner notes on another Pete Drake album. They mention the following additional songs as having been recorded by Pete with the talking steel:

Y'all Come
Hot Rod Guitar
Invitation To The Blues
