I would say Barbara Mandrell qualifies. She was with the Mandrells playing steel in the 50's and 60's when she was knee high to a grasshopper and not only famous but later became a TV superstar. | |

Ben also played the haunting steel parts on Patsy Cline's I Fall To Pieces hit. I thought it was pretty cool. Totally contrary to the way other steel players play. | |

G.E. Smith (of "Saturday Night Live" fame) on lead guitar.
