SOULFUL STRUT - lap steel in Fmaj7 tuning

Post by Andy Volk »

Just finished this arrangement of "Soulful Strut", a classic R&B/Soul instrumental from 1968 composed by Young-Holt Unlimited who were members of the rhythm sections of Soul-jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis' band. This is in Fmaj7 tuning which is the same as C6th tuning except that the G string is lowered to F.

It's been covered by a million people - like George Benson and Grover Washington, to name just two. It's only a 2-chord vamp but it's still a fun tune to play.
