I've been enjoying Booker T. Jones' autobiography, "Time Is Tight." Booker T. and the MGs were always a favorite group, so I decided to visit the title song on my pedal steel guitar. Hope you enjoy the arrangement,. and keep on groovin'.

Nicely done. I often think of the pedal steel as a chord organ. Any chance of a tab version?

Another really nice addition to your online songbook, Chuck. Also inspired me to request the bio from my local library.

Wow! That gave me the feels. Great rendition of one of my favorite instrumentals.

And the "Don't Let the Sun" started and I was floored. I don't think I've ever heard anyone play with more expression and emotion.

Thanks, Rich. We probably chose to learn the steel guitar for the expression and emotion. Glad you like the tunes.
