Big Dog 3
Informal jam sessions during sound checks on the Brigitte DeMeyer UK tour in 2009 generated such a buzz between Emmylou Harris alumni Brady Blade, Chris Donohue and country-rock pioneer Al Perkins, that they were determined to get together to produce some music that they themselves would enjoy hearing, and of course, playing. The result is Al Perkins' Big Dog 3.
Triple Play
Featuring 12 new recordings, Triple Play demonstrates the full repertoire of guitar skills from one of rock's pioneers. Whether you prefer the white hot snarling lap steel of his live performances, or his distinctive guitar picking, or the delicate, definitive country sound of the pedal steel as featured on countless albums by household names, this CD has it all.
Snapshots
Given his impressive credentials, Snapshots is surprisingly Al Perkins’ first solo effort. The album showcases his magical musical ride from an eleven-year-old steel guitar protégé in West Texas through a variety of bands and sessions over the next thirty years that feature his expressive guitar, steel and dobro playing.
