Hey folks I know I promised to do some clips of my Ole Blue Zum awhile back. I’ve been fooling around with an arrangement on this for awhile. I finally am liking where it’s going so I decided to turn on the iPhone video. I’ve already changed a few things about it but had to show this one because of my dog Tilly. She always lays somewhere around my feet when I play. I like her performance best in this one. 🤠 Dorothy had Toto to sing to in the movie so I guess it’s fitting I have Tilly to play to. Why the black hat you ask? Well, you aren’t suppose to wear white after Labor Day. Not cool... 😎

I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore, Tilly!

Beautiful version of a beautiful tune, Randy. Your trademark unique voicings always make things much more interesting. Thanks for posting!

I love unaccompanied solo pedal steel the best. Wonderful arrangement and performance!

My dog sits next to me when I play too Winking

I have finally figured out how you play so well. I was able to study the prehensile hallux on your left foot. Numerous posts have been made here regarding the proper footwear for playing pedal steel. The obvious answer is: flip flops!
Thanks for sharing Randy.

Randy, I've been listening to you play this since you did it on a CD years ago... Funny that I see this again this morning as I was dreaming about it last night and that 6&9 lower with the E's lowered thing you do... very tasty
