The Pedal Steel was played live by "Billy Braddy", Fender Guitars gave him and Buddy Emmons one of their first pedal steel models. I was the sound man at an Oprey House, and occasional player with the band. Everyone but the drummer had played with virtually every major star of 50's, 60's Country Music. Famous Folk (even movie stars) came to sit in, on a semi-regular basis. Ray Price was the last one I saw before no longer working there. Billy died in 2004 when we were just discovering BIAB. He had cancer, but didn't wanna tell anyone, he wasn't much for a pity party. We had been making loops from their live show, that I made for a local radio show. Still have the loops, mostly old Country stuff. If there is anyone interested in these loops, I could put them on dropbox. I didn't know much about making loops, so the bpm is not as described. Thanks BIAB, wish Billy could have lived to hear "RealTracks", he was convinced BIAB was the way of the future!
He Loved the Jazz tracks on BIAB, once he asked me what to call a chord he heard played, I said I learned that one using BIAB. CmMaj7
I got a little teary eyed listening to Billy Braddy play again!
Heaven has all the Great Ones!
RIP Billy!
