This is my cover of Steve Palousek "An Empty Glass" Steve gave me his Permission to post this song here on the forum. Steve is without a doubt one of the best steel pickers on the planet. If you want to here Steel Guitar at its best...Then check out Steve's cd "Side by Side". With Steve Palousek and Larry Toliver. It is Awesome. I hope you like my try at this beautiful song.

Fantastic job on a real pretty tune, Bill. Verrry smooth playing and great tone. I second your comment on Steve and Larry's CD but you're no slouch yourself! Smile

Great playing and great song. My good friend Richard Lebouef did a great cover of this song. My good friend Tim Picard on guitar. Richard is singing and playing the French Accordion.

Bill my friend... that was INCREDIBLE!!! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! ... Don’t know what you did different, but I think that’s the best recorded sound I’ve heard you get... You’re playing is always awesome, but you sound was extra nice!!!... Love it and hope this means there’s more to come.

Thanks to all my friends for the nice comment. Hi Dale and Fred...hope you guys are doing great. Dale the only thing that is different is that I am playing Live Strings from Sid Hudson. I changed from SIT Strings to Live Strings...and I like them A Lot...I think they sound great. I haven't learned how to record through the presonus artist 3 yet...I recorded this with just the Camera.

I thought you might have Bill, but it still sounded great.... Get ahold of me sometime and I'll see if I can help you with the Studio One... Again that was as good as it gets... Beautifully played.... Pretty sure I hadn't heard this song before.

Bill, glad to see you posting songs again. Your tone is fantastic, nice and clear and crisp with the right amount of bottom and reverb. Your Youtube videos have always been some of my favorites! Keep them coming.

Geezzz, I love that song, your style of playing, and the tone is one of the best I've ever heard. I too would like to know what amp and effects you are using. If you ever tab that out, I'll pay. What backing track did you use? Again, Great playing!!

Bill,

That is sooooo good. I can't believe the sound you're getting with just a camera..., but, I know the sound has to be there to start with and you sure deliver it up nicely. Gary Stewart had some great songs. Thanks for posting this.
