Swingin' On The Steel - Ray Montee

[googuse]

Well, that's gotta be one of the last times that Portland was cool.

Nicely done!

That was great! I could hear the Jerry Byrd influence, for sure. But Ray is a master in his own right.

Only in the steel guitar world - a polka is described as a swingin' tune!  Maybe as in "swing your partner", huh?

The Skipper is one of my all-time favorite steel guitarists.

Ray, is there any more footage from Heck's show. I haven't been able to locate the earlier shows when I played on the Show. By the way you sounded great. Bobby Gibson

Was he playing pedal steel here, or just 4 necks on a console? It doesn't sound like pedal steel. Good playing either way.

@BarnacleBillsBastard It's a pedal steel, but he wasn't using the pedals.
