That's one I hadn't heard. Just one more example of why most folks consider Buddy the "world's foremost" steel player. Just amazing.

Shades of Joaquin! Cool solo. Thanks for tabbing it.

Where did you find this recording? And--what program did you use for the tab?

Shades of Joaquin indeed! I used Finale, added three lines to a normal staff, deleted the noteheads (and other minor details) and replaced them with text.
Tony Laborie sent this song my way, and I think it was on a compilation; I'll ask him & let you know.

This song can be found on Bear Family's Curtis Gordon Rockin' & Rollin' vol 1. album ( vinyl ) and BF has also released both volumes on cd.
On the record the last lick is actually a palm harmonic chord slide with a volume pedal swell, you know the classic Hank Thompson "wah-ah-a-aa lick"
