  • Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
  • An unexpected visit from legendary pedal steel player Danny Dugmore…as well as a quick cameo from Bryan Sutton and Jerry Roe
    Danny has been credited on records in the past under the alias “Mud Ogre” which of course is a re-arrangement of the letters in his last name
    As you can clearly see, one of the sweetest dudes to ever put in a set of headphones…he is a dear cherished friend.
    He is absolutely ordained in this town…EVERYONE loves Danny, and if you ever heard someone talking shit on him, you would immediately know that person is a total asshole.

    I feel like Bryan Sutton is one of the main protagonists in the Homeskoolin' show. He deserves a nomination for best supporting actor.

    Danny's ear-to-ear smile during the playing of that classic solo was so heartwarming. You can see how proud he is, and appreciative of the opportunity to share.
    Great episode.

      28:26 after re-connecting to old drummer friend some years back we jammed making up stuff and standing almost over the flurry of drums i could lock in seeing exactly where the beat was going to land. Your notes are razor sharp with the beat, sounds awesome. i`m a big proponent of watching the drummer as you play.

    Your shows are always entertaining to me. But there have been a few over the years that stand out to me, and this just instantly became one of them!! I think Lauren Watkins is going to he a big star. She writes great songs and sings them well. But having you and Joey Moi putting them in the right frame seals the deal. She is one of my favorite new artists! I have commented to my wife many times how much I like the pedal steel on Lauren’s songs. And now I know why! Those stories from Doug all come from my young days, and I loved all of those artists! We’ve been to Muscle Shoals to see the studio where Linda made her first recordings, with her band (the future Eagles) peeking in the side door, and pissing off Dave Hall (who was there the day we visited!). Anyway - thank you for a keeper of a Home Skoolin’ episode! Made my day!! 🥰👍

These people are walking encyclopedias that will not be in print forever. Like Mr. Dugmore, George Gruhn, Big Al Anderson, Greg/Bubba Sarley and one day,hopefully a long way off…the Session Man, Tom Bukovac alias: Uncle Larry. Thank you Tom for your efforts to document in audio and video these volumes of that musical walkin’ talkin’ Encyclopedias Musicania.

    Hey Tom , I read somewhere Leo put the truss rod at the other end of the neck to be different from Gibson and to protect himself from any possible patent infringement. Plus it supposedly strengthens the neck not having the cut out for the truss nut at the headstock.
    you probably know this but stew Mac makes a great little tool for a tele truss rod, it’s not perfect but it helps.

    • @Martos59
      @Martos59 7 месяцев назад

      Gibsons which I love have weak headstocks because of the truss rod nut which takes away a lot of real estate and of course the grain running away at that end. I like Eddie’s neck idea with the spoke-wheel at the heel.
