Black Gold Fever

Post by Dom Franco »

Back in the 1970's I rarely played the C6th neck on my old Fender Pedal Steel, but when I heard the basic track for "Black Gold Fever" it just begged for "Western Swing style" Non-Pedal Steel. This tuning is much closer to the original "Hawaiian" roots of the steel guitar, and most often associated with Hank Williams, Gene Autry and Ernest Tubb's "Cowboy" music. Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia_M3X3QoOw
