The original clip I posted from the BBC website was only available to UK viewers. I got in touch with a chap who has posted other Scottish music on You-Tube and asked if it he could possibly post the Lloyd video for an extended audience. My thanks go to `Tomtscotland` for making this happen:

There comes a time in every session when the musician knows "it's right". Did you catch that ever so slight grin?

Pure lloyd.

Just outstanding. Thanks for posting this, Arch.

Check out the bar slant at 1:30.

Goes to prove that steel players actually do such slants when other steel players aren't (supposedly

) watching.

It sent shivers up and down my spine. But then it was Lloyd playing...

This is again proof that is is not what you play but how you play it, and when you play it, that counts.
Something so simple sounds so great in the hands of a true virtuoso. Lloyd is it, no doubt! It also goes to show that what Lloyd once told me is correct still holds true: Sound is not so much in the equipment as in the hands.
And Chris, I hear you re the bar slant. When he did that and produced that sound for a brief second I almost fell off my chair..

I want to thank our British friends for posting this one...Thank you!

Egil; This is from a BBC Scotland series plotting the history of Scottish music. Phil Cunningham composed this tune with lyrics by Rosanne Cash and it was recorded, from what I gather, earlier this year.

Clever chap Phil Cunningham. I was at a workshop he did in Ullapool about ten years ago. He got everybody playing well together in about ten minutes good players and bad. He played Lap Steel with palm pedals, got me interested in the instrument. He mainly plays the dreadful wet tuned squeeze box, the epitome of Scottish shortbread tin music but he can play a whole range of instruments well -and compose and arrange!

I would give my eye-teeth and 1st born to find a recording of this - my wife was walking by while I was listening to this and she stopped in her tracks to listen, tears streaming down her cheeks and was overtaken by the beauty of the song (she's always been a fan of Lloyd's playing as well).

I don't know if fellow UK viewers are able to access this, but the original program is being repeated on BBC2 Scotland on Tuesday the 18th. If not, enjoy a repeat of Dragons' Den.

Wouldn't it be great to hear music like this on country radio here in the US these days? This is simply beautiful music. I sure hope Lloyd makes another album for us one of these days soon. I'd love to get my hands on a listing of albums he's playing on these days, since they don't seem to make it into main stream - so called -country.

Hey Archie, I actually like watching Dragon's Den

....To our American friends, it's a television program where so called entrepreneurs and young inventers go before a panel of 5 multi-millionaires to try to get investments from $200,000 and upwards for a share in the products....not too many make it

Andrea is a fine violin player who has worked with many Nashville artists including Vince Gill.

Ken Levesque · Post by **Ken Levesque** » 17 Dec 2007 10:48 am

The song,words and music, all the musicians, especially
the steel work was another exceptional project by the Master himself Lloyd Green. The arrangement pulls on the heartstrings im sure of everyone who has seen it. Thankyou Archie for bringing this to us.

I believe Andrea was playing violin with Vince Gill when he was here with Jay Dee Maness; what a show!!
