JAMES BURTON & RALPH MOONEY |
| Famed
guitarist James Burton and storied pedal-steel man Ralph Mooney
were first-call session men for a staggering array of stellar
artists, including Merle Haggard, Elvis Presley, and many others.
Burton’s jaw-dropping Telecaster had given Ricky Nelson’s
early hits their rockabilly zest, and Mooney’s ethereal
pedal-steel was a staple in countless country sessions. Since
the duo’s sound was so easy to spot, Burton and Mooney were
urged to cut an album’s worth of originals and instrumental
covers of country hits in late ’66—and here they are
in all their inimitable glory: corn pickin’ and slick slidin’
together like nobody’s business! |
