| Can anyone explain why, immediately after George Strait sings about "twin fiddles and the steel guitar," you hear neither? |

| I remember a version with steel and if my memory serves me well,it was Earnest Bovine.The reason I remember is that at the time,I was playing a gig backing up a George Strait imposter in one of those "Country Legends" shows at the Pomona Fairgrounds.So I learned that tune off the "Pure Country" soundtrack CD - and I remember trying to get close to the steel licks Doug played on it.Maybe there was also a different version or remix w/out steel - intended for mass consumption - which is not unheard of these days. -MJ- |

Buddy Played steel on the sound track of Pure Country so It must have been him. When Did You Stop loving Me WAS pure country.

| Buddy played on the soundtrack on most tunes - "King of Broken Hearts" etc,but if you check the CD credits you should see Doug Livingston on the tune in question. -MJ- |

| Big E played on the cut that got all the airplay. Doug Livingston played on "Heartland"(Main Title Sequence), the one that the little kid sang. |

Kenny,
That little kid was George Jr. By now he must be 16 or 17 years old.
When the boxed set came out, "Pure Country" had sold SEVEN MILLION copys and still going. They though every time someone rented the movie they went out and bought the sound track (CD).
