Here is an old song I recorded with the steel. Not a real steel guitar song but I like the melody so I decided to give it a try.

All comment are appreciated.

Ron that was super!

You play one mean Pedal Steel Guitar.

Loved it.


OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

Nice.

Thank you for not rushing the tempo. Laid back and smooth, take yer time and tell yer story.

A bit of improvisation by you, in the way of soloing over the changes in the middle, would take your stuff over the top.

Great job Ron. It's nice to hear you playing songs not normally associated with a pedal steel.


Cheers,

Unlike Mac I would have prefered a slightly faster tempo. Great sounding steel. I'd totally forgotten about this tune. It makes for any genre of music. Even in country. Thanks for puttin' it together Mate. Really good sounding.

Keith and Russ,

Thanks for listening and comments. Yeah I like all kinds of music. It's fun to put something together that I haven't heard on the steel.

Play on

I Loved the way you played this Ron. It's your own style and you've given it your own individual stamp. Very nicely done indeed.
