I just completed this video of the popular song "Sleepwalk". Although I would have liked to have improvised, I deceided to keep it true to the original. C#m7 tuning. Aloha Smile

Very Happy I'm so glad you will be at the Hawaiian Music Festival in Joliet in October so we can hear more of your steel. Everyone who knows Derrick knows that he is a fine musician and a 1st class person. So be in Joliet in October.

Derrick, you even managed to sneak a smile in at the end. That really threw me off! Nice job.

Thanks Jim, for posting the music arrangement. Although I knew this song had lyrics to it, I've never heard someone sing it.

Hey Denny, Good to hear from you! Hope you and your family are doing well. Hope to see you soon. Aloha! Very Happy
