I am blown away!

I never knew that Buddy recorded with Manhattan Transfer.

My favorite vocal group of all time.

Wow! I'm with Sid! How great! Taste, touch and tone out the wazoo. Typical Big E.
I'd love to know what gear he used on those recordings. Yeah,yeah, I know, it's in the hands.

WOW, Always liked this group, as most of the rest of us, had no idea that Buddy recorded with them, makes you wonder how many more he recorded with we don't know about....when you say Steel Guitar, Big E is at the top of the list...

....Hope he writes his autobiography one day....be some Damm good reading...

A great cut but I don't believe that's Emmons. Cindy Cashdollar and Steve Hinson are credited as well on the "Swing" album. I don't hear any pedals being used, so I'd bet it's Ms. Cashdollar.
