I was friends with Jody Carver,steel guitar hall of fame,who worked for Leo Fender,,he passed at 93,I still have a message on my phone,miss you my brother,he played for me once,it was Angel music...
I knew Pete Drake during my Nashville days...he always welcomed me to hang out at his studio...alone with lots of us "youngsters" when we were getting into the Nashville scene...great guy!
SPEEDY S & BRYANT S duets are in-,un-,dis- and overless improvable. Maybe Breau and Emmons came close on their duet cowjazz album on Blind Pig, or was it some other obscure tiny venture such as RCA .. LittleRoyWiggins ain t bad, but he is Hawaii, mostly. Pete Drake, Jerry Byrd, Hal Rugg, Noel Boggs, Lloyd Green, Curly Chalker, Ralph Mooney, Bob White, Maurice Anderson, Cecil Campbell, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Doug Jernigan ... LEON McAULIFFE. Thrre u go, kidFOes ...
The biggest omission (imho) was Jerry Garcia.. I'm sure all those cats were prob heros to him, but he earned his right to be there. Just listen to "Lonesome LA Cowboy" by New Riders of the Purple Sage, & "Teach Your Children", by CSNY, & you'll "get it". Rock on)!!
Agreed. Top 5, on any list of greatest steel players. It's kind subjective for position in that top 5, but I want to know how anyone hears crazy arms, rainy day woman, a million others and doesn't think of moon everytime they hear a single note of steel.
I admire Buddy Emmons. Although he didn’t “invent” (plan; design; build) the Emmons guitar, my brother-in-law, Ron Lashley, Sr. did, Buddy put his name on it because it was very good and had a very unique sound. That guitar “whines” (my description) like non other.
This is where it's at what happened to country music I think a lot of them need to stop straddling the fence jump over into pop and rap and get it over with
No country song is complete without a steel guitar. Simply love them all.❤
Can't believe Ralph Mooney wasn't on the list.

Where’s the very best, Ralph Mooney?
Difficulties to ..Say
Buddy was in precision on every set and Ralph was also finest too
..
Bud Isaacs invented the first peddel steel... It was built for him by Bigsby.
Brumley was an very methodist and finest player with good taste..

Does the name Shot Jackson ring a bell? Sho-Bud Guitars? EMCI?
"Man does not invent; he merely discovers."
@@sammccue500 Very familiar with Sho Bud. What’s your point?
Whine huh...
Does Bud Isaac's ring a bell. He designed the FIRST PEDDLE STEEL, BUILT BY BIGSBY.
Bud Isaacs.
So of the worlds best
