Who's steeling with Ricky? He reminds me of Doug Jernigan, but the photo isn't very clear.

I just saw Ricky and Kentucky Thunder last month in New Hampshire...unfortunately, no steel player  I agree with you guys - that looks like Doug. He plays some mean fiddle tunes on steel. |

I would love to hear Doug with Ricky. You know he can burn a solo on Country Boy.

| That's definitely Doug and his Zumsteel. I first found out what a steel guitar is in the 80s when I watched Ricky's "Don't Get Above Your Raisin'" video. Bruce Bouton was in Ricky's band at the time |

That's Doug. He was briefly on the Skaggs band but decided to get off the road and focus on sessions.

If Doug tabbed out every note he gets in on "Orange Blossom Special", Rick, that's a few hundred pages right there!  |

Apparently, they're together again at the Nashville Palace, tomorrow night.

| Is that a recent picture of Ricky?...if so he has lost a lot of weight. I thought Ricky had given up on electric music, that's what he said when I saw him about 8 years ago at the Birchmere. |

| That's great if he has lost weight and gone back to electric music. I thought the electric stuff in the first part of his career was by far his best. When I saw him at the Birchmere all he could talk about was how good deep fried turkey was (it was before Thanksgiving and he did a lot more talking than singing). His performance just didn't have much energy. |

| Saw Ricky at the Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival a few years ago.All acoustic.Pretty laid-back,and I think it worked for that audience-they tend to be purists,but I'd have liked a little Ray Flacke and Bruce. |
