Lloyd Green albums vary in quality. Big Steel Guitar i think is the earliest recording and is pretty much standard for a steel guitar album but does have dope production and of course fine playing.
On later albums he does a few pop tunes, Killing Me Softly is nice but has awful 70's backing vocals way too high in the mix! Backing vocals on an instrumental?! Dont know what he was thinking releasing Shades Of Steel, maybe he was trying to widen his market.
He really showcases his chops on the Charley Pride album, one of the best live steel guitar albums ive heard, just fantastic. Great version of 6 Days On The Road and Leaving On Her Mind. Truely one of the great steel guitar albums.
