Overdue Pete Drake Compilation

"Pete Drake was one of the most important people in Nashville in the 60's and 70's, as a player he played on 1000's of records behind Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Roy Drusky and countless others, he also was a producer and ran his own label "First Generation Records". This album gives an overview over his instrumenatl solo work from the 1960's, mostly for Starday, there is also one vocal track with the Willis Brothers. Great Music for Steel Guitar lovers ( a few tracks also have his famous "Talking Steel Guitar", a gimmick that only is of some historical interest, no musical worth behind it!)Unfortunately the cover is very poor, no inside cover that gives some background information about the musician Pete Drake, something that happens alot on Starday and King reissues. But the music is still worth getting the CD!"
