Wonderful stuff, Christopher!
Would you mind sharing the tuning of the Tapper side of the steel guitar?
And how high are your strings above the actual frets?

what a trip this cd is! i just got it today and it's going to take many listenings to decipher. great picking by so many people in a very creative context.
chris is talented in 'many' ways and is supported by monsters in a unique way. there is a lot of music here!
very exciting and entertaining. wow!
