    One of my favorite instruments in country music. Always loved how it sounds. A lot of the country music from the late 80's and early 90's I grew up with features the lovely sound of the dobro. I believe Jerry actually played on many of those records.

      ​@@dannilaser16 Warren, Ohio is liberal? [snort] It's Rust Belt, a place that was never "liberal" even when it was solidly blue. But maybe when Warren voted heavily for Trump (because he said he'd save the GM plant, which he then failed to do) they started listening to the pop country dreck that's probably all over your radio. As a liberal, I shouldn't be here at all apparently. I'll go throw out my jazz, blues, classic country, classical, and early rock and roll to tune in to the musical genius that is Toby Keith.
