Question on a tune

Post by Daniel Ibanez »

Hello,
does anybody know the title of the first tune played when you access to the "Show Pro Custom Steel Guitars" website http://www.showprosteelguitars.com/

I think I remember this instrumental as played by Lloyd Green...
However, I checked all the recordings that I have to no avail...
Could someone please tell me the title, player and recording reference?

Many thanks
Daniel

It's the Tomster. I'd know his playing anywhere.

Hi Elton,
First time that I hear of Tommy White... :(
I just checked some of his videos on YouTube and he is a very fine player.
But, this tune on C6th really blows my mind... for all: right hand, base lines, chords and the gymnastic use of pedals and knee levers :eek:
