I have watched this one a few times. Curly Chalmers was certainly an awesome picker.

That's the clip that Curley had to move something on his steel in a hurry, lol.m guessing it was cigarettes and lighter probably. Curley was an awesome picker.

The link David Wright posted is to my all time favorite Curly LP. Actually one of my favorite Steel guitar Lp's of all time. I felt his tone and execution was better there than on any of the following LP's. Not my intent to start an argument. Only stating my opinion.

Bobby I totally agree with you.

You may be very surprised to know that Curly used a Fender 2000 PSG on "Big Hits On Big Steel".
The album photo was taken later, after Curly acquired a
Sho-Bud Guitar.

Thanks Roger but I knew that.But I'm sure many others don't. The playing was scary good for 1966. Again one of my favorite LP's.
