The future of steel guitar...will really depend on how good you've learned your Buddy Emmons licks.

So true. If everybody copies Buddy instead of being creative musicians (like Buddy) then it's dead where it lays.

Who are the 'creative' steel players now? Where can I hear them?

Unfortunately, all pedal steel players are now sounding the same, with the exception of two or three.

I hope to get enlightened on this subject.

Thanx,
Jim
