| | | Rock out with a new pedal steel guitar book! | Music lovers talk about pedal steel guitar book| Who would you say was the most versatile Country Performer of all time? | | My vote would go to Barbara Mandrell. She used to put on one heck of a show. She could sing great and play any instrument on the stage. She used to amaze me when the had her TV show because every week she was playing another instrument, and playing it WELL! I saw her play guitar (rythm and lead), banjo, pedal steel guitar, drums, keys and I think she even played a horn. How can you top that? What do you all think, who is you pick? | |

| | Jimmy Bryant In Action | | Ok, after scouring the net I've finally found some video footage of Jimmy Bryant in action.You have to remember this is really old stuff so the quality isn't that good.The first one is a very quick shot of him playing with Tennessee Ernie Ford, so try not too blink or you'll miss it!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVRv0btVzI0The second clip shows him with Speedy West on pedal steelhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vzt1iA2D_KgAgain, the video is bad quality, but too me it kind of adds to it, makes one appreciate that there were seriously good guitarists about even back then, that many of todays players couldn't come close too. | |
