I was friends with Jody Carver,steel guitar hall of fame,who worked for Leo Fender,,he passed at 93,I still have a message on my phone,miss you my brother,he played for me once,it was Angel music...
I admire Buddy Emmons. Although he didn’t “invent” (plan; design; build) the Emmons guitar, my brother-in-law, Ron Lashley, Sr. did, Buddy put his name on it because it was very good and had a very unique sound. That guitar “whines” (my description) like non other.
I knew Pete Drake during my Nashville days...he always welcomed me to hang out at his studio...alone with lots of us "youngsters" when we were getting into the Nashville scene...great guy!
The biggest omission (imho) was Jerry Garcia.. I'm sure all those cats were prob heros to him, but he earned his right to be there. Just listen to "Lonesome LA Cowboy" by New Riders of the Purple Sage, & "Teach Your Children", by CSNY, & you'll "get it". Rock on)!!
This is where it's at what happened to country music I think a lot of them need to stop straddling the fence jump over into pop and rap and get it over with
SPEEDY S & BRYANT S duets are in-,un-,dis- and overless improvable. Maybe Breau and Emmons came close on their duet cowjazz album on Blind Pig, or was it some other obscure tiny venture such as RCA ..

Can't believe Ralph Mooney wasn't on the list.
Where’s the very best, Ralph Mooney?
No country song is complete without a steel guitar. Simply love them all.❤
Bud Isaacs invented the first peddel steel... It was built for him by Bigsby.
