Awesome! Wish I had met him! He came out to a Milsap gig when I was playing Steel for Ronnie and someone said Dicky might come out to visit with Ronnie, which he did and I missed him!
Dicky Overbey and Jimmy Day are country westerns best kept secret and the finest steelplayers in the country western music RIP Fellow SteelersFrankie Day
I never got tired of listening to Dickey. Just a Steel Guitar Master. I try to accent my music I play like him however, I am not for successful. God Bless him!
Dicky has left us with a wonderful display of his skill as a steel guitar king. I have listened to various steel players from Hawaii to Tim Buck Two and none have shown the skill that Dicky brings us in this song. I live in the Nashville area and I know how many steel players around the country have been elevated to the highest but they never arrived at this level.
Great tone and touch! I first heard this song played by the Big 'E' on an album by Jean Shepard and Ray Pillow, titled "I'll Take The Dog". It is loaded with steel on every song. I asked Buddy if that was him, and he said yes, and he remembered having trouble with an annoying amp hum that day in the studio.
This is the reason I play bass, I've had the pleasure of accompanying many of the greats, up close & personal. I never played behind this artist but would have loved to, great musician, R.I.P.
Dicky was one of the best ever, then and now. We are lucky to have guys like Mickey, Mike S., Paul, Tommy, and a few more to carry on the art of PSG. Thanks for sharing !
Mickey Adams Do you know what effects/amp he used to get his sound? I saw somewhere what amp but forget. His work on the Leona williams album introduced me to him...and her. And he had some unique sound. I hear the technique, but besides that, Don't Know If It Was Mostly The Guitar with the unique sound
After reading all the comments below, I am disappointed that no one gave credit to the steel player who made this song famous. His name was Walter Haynes and Little Jimmy Dickens was the singer, recorded in 1955. The link below is the original recording of "We Could". Listen to Walter play those beautiful open strings; while playing the melody under the open strings. Many great steel guitar players said that Walter Haynes' "lick" on this recording was the greatest lick ever on the steel guitar. Notice the "feeling" coming out of Walter's amp. Buddy Emmons said it was the greatest. ruclips.net/video/_JmNvEbIEgw/видео.html Of course AFTER "We could" was recorded; Ray Price recorded "Night Life" and Buddy Emmons MADE the song. Later Buck Owens let Tom Brumley make the song "Together Again" and lastly, John Hughey made the song "Look at Us" with Vince Gill's recording. These 3 incredible "Gems" in the world of country music are the greatest (where most of the great players will agree) with Buddy Emmons being THE greatest that will ever have lived. Please click on the link below and scroll down to the name "C. Dixon" and see what he posted. (incidentally, that is my real name. "patdee is my pen name". LOL) steelguitarforum.com/Archives/Archive-000003/HTML/20011227-1-014040.html For what it's worth.
Jerry Byrd advised up and coming steel players to embrace the pedal still and not the lap steel A producer by the name of Kelso Herston tried to get Jerry to go to the pedal steel but he would not. The lap steel had run its' course and was all but dead.

Having an overbey morning ❤
The greatest instrument in the world, played by a master.
One of the best with a distinctive style. I'll never forget years ago driving from Nashville to Pearl's in Fort Worth to hear him, Justin and Amber.
Nobody plays with more emotion than Dicky. Had the pleasure of seeing him several times. Always a treat.
Excellent playing on the steel
Ducky Overbey and Randy Reinhart, 2 of San Antonio's favorite sons. I went to high school with Randy
Class of 1970. Edison Bears. San Antonio, TX
That is amazing. Randy is in my top 3 heroes.
Yes, Dicky was indeed a master on the steel.
Just so chilaxing 👍👏👏👏 🏴
Big fan of his playing
Lovely music!
So many great "steelers" in classic country! My top 5 Dickey Overby, Larry Sasser, Hal Rugg, Lloyd Green, Weldon Myrick.
U might add….Brumley….he added a lot of cool licks to this instrument

ol' Dicky was a great player !!
One of the all-time greats. RIP Dicky and thanks for sharing your immense talents.
I never got tired of listening to Dickey. Just a Steel Guitar Master. I try to accent my music I play like him however, I am not for successful. God Bless him!
That is really good stuff -- Now that is country...no two ways about it!!
I love this music more than anything in this world. No one puts any more feeling in their music than this man. Rest In Peace Sir.
Sitting here counting out every note. Fabulous. Love to play on tubs with a set of brushes behind it. So soft touch. Thank you. You are missed.
Powerful picker!!
Beautifully played with taste.
I sure miss you Dicky Overbey. RIP old friend.

Great steel player sad he is gone
You could do nothing but love Dickey’s steel playing. The master of the Pedal Steel!
Great tone and touch! I first heard this song played by the Big 'E' on an album by Jean Shepard and Ray Pillow, titled "I'll Take The Dog". It is loaded with steel on every song. I asked Buddy if that was him, and he said yes, and he remembered having trouble with an annoying amp hum that day in the studio.
Right up there with big e
Excellent!
The Master Thanks for the memories! :)

I think all the great ones are leaving us, Will anyone fill their shoes. I hope so.❤
maybe the best ever
Magic fingers on the steel. Thanks Tommy.

Wow Wow!!!!!😅😊😊🥲

Thanks Tommy Great Steele
This man is absolutely incredible, comparable to the late and great Tom Brumley/Original Buck Owens’ Buckeroo/Steel Hall of Fame member.😢
I own this guitar...:-)
+Mickey Adams Now if Dicky could only have passed along his talent with that PSG you would have a winning combo for sure.
Oh man is that a PLUG!!!......Thank YOU immensely....huge compliment!

Does anyone know where you can get a backing tracks for this song?
Wow😢❤😊🎚🙏❤✌

I'm sure the angels are jealous of his ability to make heavenly music.
