On the Sundazed CD, "Don Rich & the Buckaroos Country Pickin'", there's a tune called Out of My Mind which features a real steel tour de force by Tom Brumley. There's a V7-I lick he does in it that I've always associated with the Big E. Here it is going from Bb7 to Eb:
5__________________6~~6R~~6RR~~~
6___________6~~6R~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7________7~~6~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
8_____8~~7~~6~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
9__8~~~~~7~~6~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Is he quoting here or is this the original?[This message was edited by Dave Birkett on 28 January 2003 at 12:21 PM.] |

I listened to Brisbane Bop yesterday and wondered the same thing (more than once).
Vance Terry lick or Buddy E lick?
I think I know the answer. |

I think this particular "lick" is a Jimmy Day original. I seem to recall hearing Jimmy use this "phrase" when going from IV to a V chord and also, as you have stated, used when going from a V7 to a I. "Don't You Ever Get Tired Of Hurting Me" keeps coming to mind as one of the songs I have heard it used on.

Boy, All this time I thought I was stealing licks. I didn't know I was heavily into research. Thanks Dave. Seriously, I think part of the reason for the difference in styles that developed was because IMO, no one can "clone" another player absolutely. Steel players use licks learned from each other, records, etc, but in different ways from each other, ergo, the difference in style. |

Personally, I find players who have studied their given instrument, know their history, and paid homage to the genre to be the most refreshing and "legit" sounding musicians. It makes me smile.

It's been going on for centuries. Composers have often quoted others, even based whole works on a theme of another. |
