@daofktr I know this question was posted four years ago, but the answer needs to be correct: Who is playing bass with Buddy Emmons on this tune? It is Wayne Smith of Atlanta, Ga...Duke Dumas was playing guitar on this one..he's on the right in the video...just so ya know!

I figure if I watch this video another 9 times....I'll be visitor 100,000. Now that I think of it...dam good idea. The count is at 99,991 at this moment. I"m signing off and resigning in for the next half hour. I also realize that I was the first person to post a message to Bill on this video. Sounds cool to me...number 1 and and number 100.000. Thanks to the BIg E for his playing, Thanks to Bill for his generous videos

I was performing at the Sheraton Northlake on LaVista Road and 285 in Atlanta at this time (eight years worth). Buddy was attending a gathering of steel players in Atlanta. My friend, and steel guitar player, Tommy Dodd, brought Buddy in on Sunday afternoon to do a steel guitar "workshop" and concert. A moment in history:) We repeated the program for a couple of years. A musical genius.

For me the steel guitar started with the late, great Bob Dunn and ended with The BIg E. If someday you find yourself 300 miles away from where Buddy is playin' take the side trip..., you will NOT be disappointed. Where Buddy goes great side- men follow. Buddy has helped to bring a jazz composition sound to the steel guitar and within a country music parameter no less. I like to call him Mister Loosey-Goosey on the steel.

@daofktr This is my all time favorite steel song, and I was there at this taping. Duke Dumas was indeed playing guitar, and although he played some bass during the show, it was my husband Wayne Smith that played on this song and a lot of others this set. Just so ya know...
