Tommy Cass was 1st, but then Sneaky Pete, Jerry G., Don Helms, Buddy Cage, Skunk Baxter.
Anybody who played with Bob Wills, And Murph, even if I had no idea it was him till decades later. Jerry Byrd of course.
Jerry Douglas, and a raft of dobro players.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by David L. Donald on 17 October 2003 at 10:47 AM.]</p></FONT>

I would have to mention the "Wilburn Brothers Show" (spelling?) down here. Early 1960's or late 1950's. A very young Hal Rugg and Buddy Spiecher. Hal Rugg's tone was the best, and he made it look so easy.
If any forum member has better info on this, please respond. My memory is foggy.
