Скачать или смотреть Weldon Myrick: The Tragic Fall of the Steel Guitar Heart of the Opry

Weldon Myrick was the man you heard a thousand times but never knew by name—the steel guitarist whose lines made Connie Smith shatter you on “Once a Day,” who gave George Strait’s ballads that weightless ache, and who quietly held the Grand Ole Opry together from the shadows. This video dives into how a shy kid from dusty Jayton, Texas engineered the modern pedal steel sound, became the emotional backbone of Nashville, and still ended up selling his own guitars to pay medical bills. It’s a story about genius without ownership, the cruel math of “work for hire,” and what it really means when the industry lets the man who built the soundtrack of sorrow grow old in silence
