Someone posted this on the French Steel Guitar Forum. Maybe some of you have seen it before. I hadn't. I think it's funny.

That's the video for the song "Triple Play" that he had out on one of his "Swingin" albums he and Ray Pennington did on Step One Records back in the late 80's and early 90's.

Buddy also played on Ray Charles' version of I Feel So Bad I Feel Like a Ball Game on a Rainy Day. Great stuff!

Great video,was that Steel player Harold Fogle doing the umpire job behind the plate?? That look like Faron Young kicking up the dirt on the home plate umpire.

Ray Pennington was the ump... and yes, that was Faron. Roger Ball was also in there, close up of a batter.

Not only is it a cool video, but a real neat tune. I wish Buddy would do an album of original stuff like that. An album, kind of like the Black album, where he writes and plays all kinds of fun stuff.

The link that I originally posted no longer works.
Does anyone know where we can still watch it.
It would be a shame if such a good video were lost to the world.
I don't think it's on YouTube; at least, if it is, I can't find it.

Unfortunately the original post was 18 years ago. Unless the original poster can provide a copy, it's probably gone the way most of the internet from 2006 had gone. It looks like CrowBear Schmitt was the original poster, and his last post here was in 2011.

I bought that video in St. Louis at the ISGC. It was either 1986 or 1991.

If the video was originally uploaded by Bill Furgeson, its gone forever. The SGHOF had a lawyer drop a dime on Bill to Youtube and everything steel related he had on Youtube was wiped. A ton of archival history taken from the community. That's the story as I was told.

Posts about this have been deleted at the behest of the STHOF, but apparently not his one.
