Here are a few short clips with and without Hank. Kayton was top notch.

I cannot find my favorite though. It was on the Opry, I believe...I looked on youtube and found a performance from the 90's but that one was all Hank so..

It's one of my all time favorites...Hank's Among my Souvenirs with Kayton doing the solo break.
Normally Hank did it or split with the fiddle, I think but this time it was all Kayton and one of the most beautiful steel guitar solos ever. Wish I could find it for you.

I have it somewhere on an old VHS recording of that Opry show.

Yeah, someone called SFS put up that video.
Glad they did. Great little montage.

I have always been fond of Kayton's playing. I was lucky enough to catch him with Hank Snow at the Opry a couple times back in the 90's.

Not Hank Snow in person but one of his best known songs, I think Kayton was on fire on this version especially.
