Silver Wings

[@general5104]

This brings back memories...big time. My best friend, way back in my teens', Mother just Loved "Silver Wings" so I would bring my guitar when I went to his parent's house and me & him would play that for Her. His Daddy liked "Put silver Wings on my Son's chest", so we would play that for him. We would go to various folks parties and play country music. That was 50 years ago !!! This piece you played reminded me of a fellow that played the peddle steel, His Sister would sing when we played at the various parties & get togethers. It was always a true treat to back him up in a band setting. He could "blow smoke" around us...he needed to be on the Grand Ole Opry ! He played just like you do ! ((as Jack Benny used to say, "Thanks for the memory!")) Bill, from Tn. 🇺🇸
