I first heard Robert Randolph about 20 years ago. He was getting a lot of airplay on a local not for profit radio station here, CKUA. His playing completely blew me away then and continues to do so now. I have a few of his albums.
Randolph, Greg Leisz and the late Sneaky Pete Kleinow (Flying Burrito Brothers) are in a whole different class of pedal steel players.
