It can be tedious stitching together a good solo, but the end result can be so remarkable that people can't believe it is not a live person. One of the songs on my CD, Here goes nuttin', has a pedal steel solo in it and I got an email from a pedal steel player that asked "Who played that solo?? I don't think I could duplicate that." And that solo was a compilation from 8 different iterations of an 8 bar passage. All cutting and pasting.... and much experimentation.


I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
