Does any one out there happen to know who played steel with PEE WEE KING ? Or which steel man done recording sessions with him ?
A friend of mine has been bugging the heck out of me to find out. Thank you all-- BILL

Bill,
CDNow has a Bear Family box set of Pee Wee King on their website that credits Charles Adams as playing steel.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Mike Brinkmeyer on 12 July 2001 at 09:22 PM.]</p></FONT>

Bill; In the now closed Forum, Bar Chatter you can find a thread titled: Who Played Steel On Slow Poke. It started on 19 Mar 2001 and should provide you with a lot of additional reading.
Regards, Paul

Hi, I am just looking in the book that follow the CD Box from Bear Family. Following steel pickers played on the early records with Pee Wee King: Don Davis 1946, Roy Jewell Ayres 1947-50, Doug Oldham 1951, Chuck Wiggins 1951, Bob Koefer 1952-55, Jack Bengle 1955 and Charles Adams 1956. It is a great book with a lot of pictures and there is 151 songs on the CD´s. GREAT music!!

I talked to Koefer on the phone just recently. He said as long as they keep sending him plain tickets, he will keep playing with the playboys. He and his wife now live in Bend, Or. He goes to Az. in the winter and works down there with some band.
