Two non pedal steels with Asleep at the Wheel

Post by Tony Palmer »

Okay this is actually yet another “who is this steeler?” Maybe we should have a forum section just for this!?
Video of AATW live at Billy Bobs with Cindy Cashdollar on lapsteel and someone else, standing next to her on a double neck pedal steel without pedals. I’d like to identify the guy standing up at the doubleneck if anyone knows him, or just as curious if anyone else uses a double neck pedal steel this way?

Altho video was posted in 2014, person in video looks to me to be the Great Player Big Jim Murphy.....he toured with AATW for quite some time playing fantastic swing material on his standup double neck.
