Steuart Smith is a stunning guitar player. How he gets overlooked as one of the truly great players is beyond me. He has taste, technique and an empathy to the song that is just brilliant.
This man is one of the greatest songwriters to successfully written in the idioms of country/rock, folk, texamex and many other styles. You would be suprised who he has written for. Also a great Lyricist. Vince James
I love seeing these old clips from when Rodney and Steuart Smith played together. Both great guitarists in their different ways. Works so well together!
I've seen Rodney twice. Once in Jasper, Indiana and then in Madisonville Kentucky... Didnt get my "Stars on the water" but got plenty of talent to make up for it. 5* both times! Rodney is the best!
Wow! Thanks for sharing this excellent performance. We were lucky enough to get to see Rodney on his KIN tour a couple of weeks ago. He had Steuart Smith performing with him as a special guest, and man was that show special! There's a magic to Steuart's playing and it really shines when he plays with Rodney. You could tell Rodney was really enjoying himself all through the show. It's a shame they only toured for a limited number of shows and so few got to see them.
Any idea what effects Steuart uses here? We see him tapping his foot on the board. Yes. the strat sound amazing . Very good. Steuart played on several Rodney's vids. Great every time.
Songs that you have liked. Not every thing that a person likes is good. Sweets? Heroin? Bad choices in relationships? Folks like those things, doesn't make them to be good.
@freudensammler. You may already know this by now. Pedal Steel Guitar - Tommy Spurlock Bass - Jimmy Hanson Drums - Vince Santoro Rodney along with Steuart Smith, Vince Santoro and Michael Rhodes (RIP) on bass recorded together as The Cicadas. Check out their album of the same name. More of Rodney Crowell's excellent songwriting! Stay safe and well.

Not overlooked.
He´s a genius
He is Been With The Eagles for quite a while
I've been an admirer of Rodney's lead guitar player for years...versatile, tasteful, and clean.
watch rodney on every closeup shot. no matter how long it is, he NEVER blinks.

Agreed!
Steuart Smith - Strat master !!!
One of the greats! A true icon!

What a great show. Cannot get enough of The Houston Kid!
Hell of a band!
One of my favorite Singer-songwriters.
One of my favourites, too!
Brilliant ! Excellent work by Steve Smith lead.

So good. One of the best US singers and songwriters - and it is definately more Rock'n roll than Country for me.

I totally agree with what you say about Steuart Smith , he is a fantastic player !
Mr Smith.... 😷👍😷
Yes
The 2nd song is a medley of Crazy Baby and She's Crazy For Leaving.
I LIKE THE MUSIC HI PLAY AND WRIGHT
Thanks so much, I really enjoy it!
Randy Crowell is country & rock and roll. Stuart is a guitar master. Not like other country guitarists. Like his wammy bar technic.
Any idea what effects Steuart uses here? We see him tapping his foot on the board. Yes. the strat sound amazing . Very good. Steuart played on several Rodney's vids. Great every time.
This is back in the days of ' The Hooters '. " And we danced....."
Now that's the way to open a show!
Rodney writes good songs
Songs that you have liked. Not every thing that a person likes is good. Sweets? Heroin? Bad choices in relationships? Folks like those things, doesn't make them to be good.
Perhaps, but just because someone like you disapproves doesn't exactly make Crowell's songs bad...
Great guitar playing..on an old Strat with a vintage fingerboard radius!...nuff said.
That drummer is PUNK ROCK
One of the greatest underrated song writers.
the way the lead guitarist is playing reminds me of the guy who played for the eagles for awhile
it's the same guy - Stleuart Smith - before he played with the Eagles.
Sorry, Steuart Smith. He played a lot with Crowell and his one-time wife, Rosanne Cash. So did the drummer, Vince Samboro.
Yes, Steuart Smith must be one of the best guitarists that I have ever heard in my life. The guy is masterful on the Strat here !
And Dwight Y guitarist is lots alike
Does anybody know the names of the other musicians (steel, b, dr)?
@freudensammler. You may already know this by now.
Pedal Steel Guitar - Tommy Spurlock
Bass - Jimmy Hanson
Drums - Vince Santoro

@@markmiwurdz202 thanks! I know/got this album
Steuart Smith before he got stuck copying Don Felder’s leads for the Eagles.
Good for him. Geat musician.
