Great! That's really swingin', Steve. Love the tone you get with your fingers on that Panda.

That sounds great Steve! I really dig how you incorporate those different styles fluently in the same song.

That was awesome, Steve. Reminds of Hambone Blues by Red Knuckles and the Trail Blazers :)

Love your videos Steve! Your playing always has an excitement that keeps me on the edge of my seat! I also don't hear many people playing in E6, mostly E13. It is a great tuning. I like having the 1 on top.

I didn't realize how old this song is. I think I first heard Tom Morrell playing it on one of his recordings and instantly added it to my list of songs I want to learn. It seems like a steel guitar standard at this point.

It's such a great tune...I've never heard Tom Morrell's version, I need to track it down.
