| I am guessing here, but its a good one...This is certainly Weldon Myrick's tone and licks. The only guy who has fooled me going into Weldon's world was Russ Hicks who really loved and captured Weldon's thing. Especially during those late 70's when he was playing with Barefoot Jerry...This sounds like an older cut from around that period. |

Paul is right of course - I jumped the gun knowing that Lloyd played with him. Weldon was Weldon for sure.
He and Hal both told me not to try to be Buddy, Weldon, Hal, Lloyd or Paul just be you - borrow from all of um Hal said, borrow from all of um and many more but just be you. A great memory.
Thanks Paul

Sorry I forgot the link. Old age and too much isolation.

| Paul’s comment about identifying a player by style and tone brings a question to mind. While a player’s style is unique to the player, how much of the tone is controlled by the engineer? Do the session players have input into what they hear on play back? |

Personal tone is in the players hands....We can be manipulated through different gear etc....But we can never be changed into sounding like another player....If it could how many would sound just like Buddy, Lloyd, or whoever has their favorite tone? The hands reveals a players tone. Back in the 60's before album credits I learned who was playing by their tone and then their style of licks.

Paul, personal tone, right on target. Years ago I had the privilege to be a student of Neil Flanz, here in Florida. After the lesson he would play a few songs, his style & tone, amazing, during most of his playing I would watch his hands and how he concentrated on and getting that "Flanz P/P" sound, all personal involvement, a true old time professional.
His Emmons P/P was falling apart, it would move left to right, backwards and forwards, rattle a little, as he played, it looked as it was about to fall to pieces. But his tone, wow.
Talk about equipment!!!!
His early 1960s Nashville tales on the music scene there was a history lesson I'll never forget.
He had a kind word for everyone he spoke of.

It's interesting that this recording was mentioned. For 35 years this recording has mystified me. I got all Jack's albums from that era and they are all masterpieces. So one day I was playing a CD I made of that album in the car going to a gig with Walter Haynes. Walter played steel and fiddle in my band for 10 years and was also producing at Owen Bradley's studio when Jack cut these songs. I asked him who was playing steel on this song and he said it was so long ago he couldn't remember but it sounded like something only Emmons would attempt to pull off and actually make it fit in the song but then he said "Why did he do that? That don't fit that song."
Anyway I had to take a stab at it myself but I never could get the feel the original had. Not even close.
I made me a track to it playing all the instruments similar to the original record and even sung it but no cigars on steel. I'm sure players like Franklin and Green can pull it off but I dig it even if it don't fit the song. Here's my feeble reenactment of that recording session.
