The British Steelies Society

I would like as many members as possible to name me Steel players they consider to be among the "Top Ten " steel players in the world. I am talking about living active Steel players. This is no disrespect to any Steel player that has passed. My all time favourites are Jimmy Day and Weldon Myrick, but I am, as I say, referring to living active steel players. My own personal favourites among the Top ten are, Tommy white, Mike Johnson, Lloyd Green, Buddy Emmons and yes Pete Haywood who I consider (even though not active on the country scene) is still as far as I am concerned every bit as good as the other guys I have mentioned.

I do have a particular reason for asking this question and I hope as many of you as possible will reply. I shall in due course tell you the reason for this question.
Thanks Dave.

Jerry Garcia and Ralph Mooney are no longer with us.

Gee,
Nobody even mentioned Dave Hartley, Mark Dunn, Richard Burton, Basil Henriques etc all I think top class.

A ‘top ten’ list maybe going off track here but others to add are

Larry Sasser and not yet mentioned Joe Wright, all great players as are a number of our own guys here, dare I open that can!! In no particular order! Derek, Ken, David, Mark, Richard, Baz and, and, then we have Ireland and Europe, there could be another list!

Sorry Ron, I guess we were on the same wave length, there's a surprise eh!
