Hi Buddy - Hope you're doing great. I have some questions about "Lily Dale", the terrific Darrel McCall record you produced in the early '70's. I recently replaced the vinyl I had once upon a time and the CD version has a different cover than I recall. The CD pix look more recent. I think the record had Darrel leaning on a pickup truck. No matter, the worse part is there's no credits. Can you fill in the details on the great players on this record. I hear several different fiddle and guitar styles and your playing is outstanding - I love that part where you're by yourself on The Days When... The rhythm section is right in the pocket too. I know it's you on the bass on It's my Lazy Day, but that's all I remember. The CD has 10 tracks, but the vinyl may have had more tunes. I cribbed numerous fiddle licks from this record and I recommend it as a classic. The tunes are:

Lily Dale
I Came Home to Face the Music
Dreams of A Dreamer
Every Girl I See
It's My Lazy Day
Please Don't Leave Me
The Days When You Were Still In Love With Me
Tennessee
Sad Songs and Waltzes
Pins and Needles

Thanks for the info and the wonderful music,

HK
