28: 1951 - Lloyd Maines (Lubbock, Texas)
Steel guitarist, and thanks to Bob Harris for informing me that he, not another steel player, Jay Dee Maness (Jan. 4 birthday) is father of Dixie Chick Natalie. Astonishing that no one spotted my mistake back in January.

Thank you, John. I've added him to the list on page 1. And, thanks for writing it out in 'cut and paste' form. (When my name's on the page as author, I can edit without Charlie having to).

29: 1947 - Charles Hodges (Memphis, Tennessee) Hi Rhythm Section, Hodges Bros.

Charles plays the organ. Obviously, I was inspired today by Will's YouTube post of R.L. Burnside. Can't gind the birthdates of Leroy, or Teenie Hodges (date?, year 1946) yet - or Archie Turner Mitchell.
