Shelly Lee Alley (Ted Daffan steel guitar)

Spotify sent me a Christmas present recommending this album. https://open.spotify.com/album/4vxR9EfWdMxMIrxvtGh4Am

As I listened I first thought Bob Dunn, but as it continued I thought, no it sounds a bit different. Turns out it is Ted Daffan ( Daffen ) who was inspired by Dunn. I love the solos on these recordings, Ted's playing is a little more unrefined and reminds me of Casey Bill Weldon a bit. The songwriting is top notch as well! Merry Christmas Non Pedal Steel Forum!!

here is his discography for anyone who is unfamiliar https://adp.library.ucsb.edu/index.php/ ... Daffan_Ted
