Does anyone know who played steel on the Kendall's version of 'Pick Me Up on Your Way Down'? (Greatest Hits Album)

I think Sonny Garrish played on some of their stuff - "Heaven's Just a Sin Away" in particular.

On a side note, I was playing a concert in CHURCH once and a little old lady requested that we play "Heavens Just a Sin Away". I couldn't believe it! We didn't, of course.

Reggie, I suppose most of your audience would have found the theology questionable!

Judging from the success of that record though, a lot of people didn't. The "Pittsburgh Steelers" was another great cheatin' song of theirs.

But getting back to the original question, does anyone know the answer? Am I right that Sonny Garrish played on a bunch of that stuff?
