I have a video of this show, had Skaggs band (Shawn Lane on mando, with Hicks and Billy Joe Foster) and Larry Sparks' band. His mandolin picker was a guy by the name of Joe Clark, good chops. Anybody know if he's still on the scene? He was playing a blonde F5 and he was right on.

Joe Clark is currently playing mandolin with Melvin Goins. Great player.

AlanN, I have a video of an OLD Austin City Limits broadcast with Dr. Ralph, Skaggs (w/Shawn Lane on mandolin) and Larry Sparks (w/Joe Clark on mandolin). I was really taken with Joe Clark and the mandolin he played. It looked rather rustic and had a Monteleone tailpiece. His playing was extraordinary.
Yeah man, that must be the same show. He wore that mando loowww!

Billy Joe Foster playing with Ricky?? What kinda deal is that. I'll have to talk to him this weekend and ask him about it.
