Engineered by Stan Ross, these recordings feature top flight studio musicianship from legendary wrecking crew drummer Hal Blaine, guitarist Ben Benay (Goldenrod, Darius), acoustic guitarist Al Casey, piano on "i am cain" Don Ralke, monster bass player Ray Pohlman, not to mention one of the worlds most renowned and respected pedal steel guitar players, Jay Dee Maness (Buck Owens, the Byrds Sweetheart of the Rodeo LP)...
