Hi fellow steelers,
I`ve always been moved by this song. Here is my rendering of it in a single string style. Enjoy!

What a nice rendition. I've long felt some of Clapton's tunes could be done very nicely on steel guitar.

Hi Steve,(Branscom)
Once again, "thank you", for your encouragement, and support for my efforts in my trying to play this instrument.
I dont know exactly how this song came about, but I do know while sitting quietly alone at home the melody of it "just came". As I investigated the possibility of playing it, It started to come together.

What you are hearing, is purely inspirational. I hope it works for those that hear it! Thanks again,

Bishop Hall (Ron)

Hello Bishop,
They say that imitation is the greatest form of flattery. I'm sure Mr.Clapton would agree.What a melodic and joyful rendition.Great Job!!!!!!!!

Hi Del! (Grace)
Thanks my friend! Do you think E.C. might give me a job?
