Thanks Joey!

Sorry about your "winnings"...but about all I can award you is my friendship. It's a valid offer and you can bank on it. (No check is in the mail kinda stuff!)

"WHO" then, is the other steel player from the 1950's going by "Jack~Curley~somebody" that played steel with the Opry greats?

Al means Jack Evins, played a quad Stringmaster with pedals added. He was on many Ray Price recordings in- 57 -58, "Invitation To The Blues" is probably the best known.
