2402.1 | Gotta love hot country pickers. | IBIS::JERRYWHITE | Hey you're pretty good - NOT ! | Fri Dec 13 1991 08:12 | 5 |
| He's awesome ! I saw those same shows. Albert's hot, but you almost
expect that from him. Vince just lays back in the weeds (while he
singing) and then knocks your socks off, with *no* effort at all.

Couldn't agree more - I saw it too! Isn't he in Marc O'Connor's
new "pick up" band? The CD is under Marc's name.
Great clean sound and tons of tasty passing tones. Almost like
a banjo style to me. And, yes, he's known as a singer.
... ah, just hit me, it's the New Nashville Cats, yes?

| I met him while he was in Pure Praire League at a concert I was working
back in college. He's a super guy... as a matter of fact they were all
good people. I wonder how many folks know that band was started by a
couple of guys from Sag Harbor, Long Island.
Guy's a super picker to say the least!

2402.5 | Vince Gill :== HOTHOTHOT! | WEDOIT::KELLYJ | Master of rhythm, Phd in swing | Fri Dec 13 1991 11:14 | 13 |
| The band I'm in plays a couple of his tunes: his *monster* hit _When
I Call Your Name and a country rocker called _Liza Jane_. Took me a
good three weeks of 1/2 speed tape listening to cop that solo, but's
it's a gas to play.
As for albums, Tom Desrochers named a good one: The New Nashville Cats
which also has a couple of other reasonable pickers on it: Ricky
Skaggs and Steve Wariner. Vince's album called _When I Call Your Name_
has some good tunes. Hisd latest has Liza Jane, but I cannot recall
the album name.
BTW, his wife plays a pretty mean paisley Tele in her band, Sweethearts
of the Rodeo.

2402.6 | Awsome picker | CSCOA1::JOHNSON_ROB | | Mon Dec 16 1991 13:14 | 11 |
| Isn't there a song on When I Call Your Name called Oklahoma Swing?
Awsome picking. Another killer song is Oklahoma Border Line, don't
know what its on.
Also saw him on American Music Shop with Larry Carlton, bout 4 months
ago, great show.
I was begining to think there was no one out here that liked, much less
played country music.
