Summary: Masterful 2008-04-10
Comment: An excellent and varied collection by one of the most eminent pedal steel guitarists. Emmons can do any kind of music amazingly well, gorgeous tone, tasteful, equally good on up tempo or slow, country or jazz. Anyone who plays steel knows how good he is; anyone who loves music can appreciate his playing.

Summary: Classic "Big E" 2003-06-22
Comment: This is one of the classic Buddy Emmons albums from 1975. It gives you a 40 minutes tour of the sounds and the styles the Steel Guitar can produce if played by a real master. Buddy starts off with a Breakdown-Medley, followed by a medley of his early influences, incl. Leon McAuliffe, Little Roy Wiggins, Herb Remington and Bud Isaacs. His a capella rendition of "Wild Mountain Thyme" is simply moving, the journey continues from Bob Dylan to Jazz ("Top Heavy") and finally ends in the 17th century when he closes out with a classical piece written by a German church composer. Production and musicianship are extraordinary, this album will also be loved by listeners who haven't shown too much interest in the Steel Guitar so far.
