Check out Kenny Vaughan. He plays with Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives.

This last one has a great steel guitar break by Chris Scruggs, Earl's grandson.

Clint Strong is fantastic.

I love the country guys that lean a little Western Swing. I'm not sure if he counts as country enough, but I love Jim Campilongo's playing.

Vince Gill can tear it up too.
