There have been - and still are - hundreds of fabulous steel players. Yet, close your eyes and listen to 100 of them, and you just know when it’s Buddy Emmons. His tone floats. It’s ethereal. To me, he was in a class of one.

Except Buddy Rich was an insufferable arrogant man who hated country music , he famously said in hospital when the nurse asked him if he was allergic to anything he said Country Music. He didn't survive the operation.....God loves country music. :-)
I remember Buddy's right foot coming through to work the pedals, next to the left foot. And like he could do anything in his sleep. And after death, he can still bring up my tears.
Without going into detail, I'm soon to cross that Rainbow Bridge myself, but I take strength from the fact that I saw this 'God' of the steel guitar perform live. I also have his autograph. RIP....
Any steel guitar players in Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio or Michigan should comment below, step forward and be counted. I play this music but can hardly ever find good steel players, and would be privileged to hire you in the future. Thanks very much! BTW Buddy's albums w/ Danny Gatton are the most outrageously incredible playing I've ever heard, if you're not hip to those albums, go buy them.
My father was hugely influenced by mr Buddy Emmons. Check out Gary Holton & Casino Steel with "Goodnight Irene". I think he nailed that one pretty hard :D RIP dad, hope you're playing with Buddy somewhere as we speak.
Does anyone know where I might get my hands on any of Laney Hicks' CDs? I understand that she recorded 3 different CDs, but I can't find *any* of them in the normal retail channels. ???
@@1krazykaraokegranny Yeah, but those are mostly just singles and/or misc stuff that she did with Charlie McCoy. I know that she released 3 complete country CDs of her own: The Last Letter, Matters Of The Heart, and A Tribute To Connie. I've got "Matters Of The Heart" but I can't find the other 2 anywhere. A good friend of mine managed to find a few random tracks from each of her 3 CDs, which he provided me with copies of, and they're terrific. Sadly, they only cause me to want even more!! ;-)

Beautiful. His playing is divine. The legato is wonderful. The harmonies are heavenly. The notes flow like honey.
What an astounding steel guitarist , Buddy Emmons.
One of the all time greats
I sure wish people didn't have to get old and die.

Ethereal is a good word to describe his playing. It certainly transports you to a higher plane. Like all great art, it has a spiritual component.
Mike Johnson comes to mind also.
Almost all of the world's GREATEST pedal steel players on one stage at the same time. What a great job by Mr Emmons. Never be another.
He plays with such patience. It creates a feeling that just floats in the air.

Well you got to love that intro. I have listened to this over and over. Will never get tired of the pros playing pedal steel.
The world’s foremost steel guitarist. What fool would downvote this ?
To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln: You can't please all of the people all of the time!....
J'ai déjà regardé cette vidéo plus de 5 fois...chaque fois c'est un régale
..
🎉He is 100%, without dispute, da GOAT. If you want something fresh and unusual, check out the one with him playing with a jazz combo in Japan.
Buddy Emmons! Omg! Prettiest steel playing ever!
You're pretty dang good yourself...
It's sad to think that those great times and sounds are almost gone forever........
I was thinking the same thing, I wish I would have went to more of them, something always got in the way
Buddy, simply beautiful❤
Hello, how are you doing today, I hope you’re having a wonderful day?
Buddy Emmons is to steel what Buddy Rich was to drums. No one can replicate his sound. We'll miss you Big E.

Laney Hicks gives me chills IM in LOVE with her she is beautiful in my eyes and her singing is of the hook
He is the Legend , the best of the best ! His notes are emotional . They seemed blending to the voice of singer .
A perfect harmony !
Buddy and Laney - it just does not get any better!
I don't play the steel and not even sure how I got here, but THIS got me ! Beautiful.
Find my weakness is too strong! Oh wow!!!!
Without going into detail, I'm soon to cross that Rainbow Bridge myself, but I take strength from the fact that I saw this 'God' of the steel guitar perform live. I also have his autograph. RIP....
I’m sorry to hear that. I wish you strength and peace on your journey.
@@rice_cracker_ Thanks for your kind words. I plan to keep going as long as I can though! 👍
I'm glad that you got to meet him. I'm a Piano player but always loved the steel. I just discovered him on TH-cam a few months ago. What a gift he had
Listen to Buddy and Laney puts the biggest smile on my face!
Man, how did he get that tone! Wow! What a touch!
Yeah, and there is a lot of playing there but Buddy never makes it sound overcomplicated and he never sounds out of control .
God his tone is amazing
Buddy is the FATHER of STEEL GUITAR !
just unbelievable....what a touch !
Beautiful playing and Singing!!
:: CHILLS ::
What more could I say abou The Great Buddy Emmons that hasn't been said yet?
Yes indeed, great steel pedal guitar and Laney has a great voice. Together they are smooth as silk.
No one better he set the bar high.....
Talent at its best,God bless him
Great sound and singer !
Buddy crushed my heart!
There was nobody that was ever better than the big E From Tennessee
Don’t agree I liked Ralph Mooney better.
EVERYBODY shuts up when E plays. Don Helms looking on.

Rudi Wairata the best lapteel guitarist

@@Kitrya Rudi Wairata the best …. George was good to.
btw Buddy E. Had his recordings of both Rudi and George ,,,, and loved them both 😉 (1977 / ‘78 ) thanks 👍
Ralph Mooney to me played better pedal steel
Wow, I can play it, but not with Buddy,s touch...he was #1 & always will be!!!
Talk about captivating an audience!
Marcel.. (Buddy Emmons),..Great my friend!!
Buddy’s steel guitar and Laney’s voice are both smooth as silk
God I love this song, they are good together in this.
thanks Marcel for that JEWELL...
1:13 and 4:15 is an institution for all of us!!!🔥🔥
Check out his playing on "Each Time" by Ray Price. Unbelievably stunning.

No one like him ....
Best STEEL...wow, what a sound...damm, non like the big “E”
nobody comes close.
Een gelukkig mens
Suc a shame he's playing a 'Zum' here....
Saying with his facial expressions
“This thing is out of tune”
I prefer Ralph Mooney on steel.
You’re probably the only one who does 😂
@@SteelinDan Can’t stand jazz on steel Buddy’s playing I don’t like much.
killing it, you need the Franklin signature speaker.
