Andy Williams passed away yesterday at 84. Although he wasn't a steel guitarist, several of his recordings featured the steel guitar, especially his Hawaiian albums.

Kirk, is this the Bruce Windham you seek?

Well, I want to share this too that for his Christmas Show he never charged admission for children that were 16 years and younger.
He was very polite and a professional all the way!
Next he was a Christian! I read his biography and everyone should read it. He shared his love for GOd and how he got started singing in church as a boy.
GOD be with his family and friends!
