Buddy Emmons on fire at DeWitt "Scotty" Scott's Steel Guitar Convention in 1974. Pushed to the limit by the great guitarist Bobby Caldwell.
If you listen closely you can hear Buddy yelling in the background. Photos from an old Kodak Instamatic.

The mic on that little Sony tape recorder did a spectacular job documenting this. TY for preserving and posting it.

Back in the day....this was a great opener and break song........never imagined it could ever sound this good, but we didn't have a Bobby Caldwell or a "BIG E" either.... giants like none other!

tbfnyc Not in 1974 ! Sorry, but the Steel Guitar Convention did not move into the Chase-Park Plaza until 1976. Your caption states 1974. In 1974, the 3rd National Steel Guitar Convention took place on September 14th & 15th at the Holiday Inn at Lindberg Blvd & I-70.The bandstand, rear curtain and ceiling in your Photo of your Video above is not the Chase-Park Plaza stage (Korissan Room, to be more specific) ~ the ceiling on the stage at the Chase was considerably higher than the acoustic-tile ceiling with recessed lighting in your picture. Also, the rear curtain, behind the musicians, at the Chase had a huge multi-colored sign twelve feet across and eight feet high saying "Scottys Steel Guitar Convention".

This is the classic all-time great version. But QUESTION: is there any way these photos could be posted somewhere so that I could download them? They are incredible!
