Get the live album. Dicky just kills it on that one. The older albums are probably out of print.

Thanks Richard, I just saw where Ronnie Milsap will be having a new box set coming out on November 4th called "The RCA Albums Collection". You can preorder it at walmart.com for $110.00 with free shipping. Amazon.com has the same deal. Looks like all of his older albums are in the 21 cd set with the live album included.
I hope he sells millions of them.

I think Dickey was playing steel in the "Houston Solution" video with Ronnie.

I'll have to see if 20-20 Vision is available. I have the vinyl of both of these, but they are packed in boxes in my closet. It would be nice to have CD's without all the static, skip, scratches.

Ronnie Milsap was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame last Sunday. During the ceremony and before a packed audience they screened a 1975 live performance of "Daydreams about Night Things" and there was Dickie Overby on steel and sounding great.

Jim, Bruce was a great player who I grew up with and played with in Nashville in the 70's. Bruce is a Missouri boy who got the job with Ronnie while working with Curtis Potter. Dickey got him the job without a tryout. He was with Ronnie 14 years then on to Paycheck and Gregory later. Bruce got a brain tumor and lost his memory. He doesn't remember much, and has to be cared for. He is still the good ol Bruce.
