I have uploaded a clip of Hal from the 1999 International Steel Guitar Convention.

I do need some help though. I don't know the name of the song, the drummer's name or the keyboard player's name. So if you do, please post them and I will update YouTube.

This little ditty should put to rest the "steel guitar is only for country" fallacy. All I can say is WOW, the entire group is tight as ticks. Thanks Bill for the post.

Bill...that's the Charlie Parker tune "Billie's Bounce". Great version! Thanks for posting.

There can never be enough Hal!

Bass: David Smith
Guitar: Greg Galbreath
Piano: Catherine Styron Marx

Not sure on the drummer. Is it Randy Hauser?

Interesting they're in Bb. Bird cut it in F.

I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT!
THATS WHAT JAZZ ON THE STEEL SHOULD SOUND LIKE. WISH I HAD A 1/4 OF THOSE LICKS IN THAT ONE SONG.
BOY I SURE DO MISS OLE HAL.

When I first post video's I mark them as private until they are uploaded and I have a chance to check them out.
After I confirm they are ok, I release them, but sometimes it takes YouTube a couple of hours to process.

So if you are subscribed or catch it too quick, it will show as private. Just have patience.

Thanks
Bill
