Curly Chalker / Buddy Emmons

Post by Tommy White »

I saw a video of these heroes several years ago. Curly was playing the Sho-Bud finger tip and Buddy was playing electric guitar. I would love to see this again. Anyone have links?

What age was the video? Was the fingertip contemporary to the time or was it a newer vid of him playing a vintage instrument?

Years ago I saw one of Jimmy Dean's syndicated TV shows that had Buddy on steel and Chalker on guitar. I remember at one point Emmons did an intentionally corny slide, and Dean turned and commented, "Buddy Emmons, you tacky dude!"
