Master builder Jeff Surratt in action.

[Ken Byng]

Here is some great country vocals from Josh Turner and Randy Travis, along with under-rated steeler Jeff Surratt. Jeff is a master builder of pedal steels, being the owner and designer of the Nashville-based Show Pro guitars. He and his mentor Duane Marrs built the Marrs pedal steel before Show Pro took over their energies.

I could listen to that all week, lovely stuff. Thank you for posting it, Ken.

This one almost slipped by me!
Great picking, and after listening back to back with the Mike Johnson clip, it struck me how different their approaches were. I realise the style of the songs are very different, but Jeff's style seems quite percussive while Mike's sounds smooth and legato. Both inspirational and so good.
Also great to hear Randy Travis again!
Great post Ken, thanks.

Danny, LEGATO !! We'll have some of that from you this month.

[Danny Mitchell]

Ha! Ha! I'm full of the sh#t, Donny
As a former school oboist, and no' the pink kind I certainly know my adagio from my encore.

And as for getting some of that from me this month, I'm afraid it's a case of taking what you get, but you can bet it will be delivered in my usual Grave, Slurred and Pitchy style
