What would Harvest have sounded like without that lonesome, slinky pedal steel? I didn't know he played with Patsy Cline and was a noted Nashville session player, also that he produced Jewel's first CD, a multi-platinum success. Plus he was the lead actor in Neil Young's funky film "Greendale". http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/17386/185381 http://neilyoungnews.thrasherswheat.org/2010/07/ben-keith-19xx-2010.html Joni connection: they both played on Graham Nash's "Another Sleep Song", from his second solo album. Keith played dobro, don't know if they all recorded at the same time. Most likely, Joni's part was recorded later.

The bass player Victor Wooten and Jeff Coffin, soprano sax trading licks @2:48 puts the biggest smile on my face---- goodness. And for all you Jaco Pastorius fans out there, @ 4:10 he plays Jaco's "Continuum"----super goodness! Paul Mc Candless's solo @6:55 is sweeeeeet!

Jeff is such a great player. We hung out with for a couple days in Nashville last time we were there and had a blast. He came to the show and took about 600 fotos of the band and gave them to me. He went off this summer to get married. I am going to see him on August 15 in Denver with DMB.

See additional link http://news.suite101.com/article.cfm/paul-mccartney-receives-the-library-of- congress-gershwin-prize-a265463 I saw part of the concert - quite good.
