Often when this question us asked some people are able to quote from session notes who played on what song . Is there a site that gives info like this ? |

The site is Praguefrank's Country Music Discographies http://countrydiscography.blogspot.com/ but the site index is a little unwieldy. The easiest/quickest way to find something specific is to do a google search with the artist and song title and simply add the word "praguefrank". Some artists pages are really long but in most browsers you can search within the page by typing "CTRL+F" _________________ All lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest - Paul Simon |

A lot of times, they don't have musician credits listed. Or, they may list 2 or more players of each instrument and you have to guess who is playing on the song you're checking into. The Praguefrank listing do list individual songs, but I have looked for some songs that weren't in there. _________________ Carter D10 8p/8k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup,Regal RD40 Dobro, NV400, NV112 .

I’ve used Wikipedia sometimes, it appears session notes are the references but individual track listings are unusual. If more than one steel player is listed you can sometimes tell who’s who by style. _________________ 2008 Zum D-10, 1996 Mullens PRP D-10, 1974 Emmons D-10, 1976 Emmons D-10, early 70s Emmons GS-10, Milkman Sideman head w/Telonics 15" speaker, 1966 Fender Super Reverb, 1970 Fender Dual Showman head, Wechter/Scheerhorn and Beard Dobros, 1962 Supro lap steels, Gibson 1939 RB-11 banjo, Gibson 1978 RB-250
banjo......and way too much more |
