On the far left is Jay Webber - Steel Guitar
A little about Jay from his son LJ Webber: He moved to San Antonio from Missouri and played steel for Jimmy Revard for several years and did the live radio broadcast and was featured on the radio show. He was an excellant singer, and played guitar and bass also. He married my mother whom he met in Kerrville Texas playing with Jimmy at the Round Up and they married in June 1950. He passed away from cancer in 1970 and she passed away in 2000.
