I heard this song on the radio this morning, and the chorus starts:
"What this country needs is a little more steel guitar."
YES! Does anyone know who does this song?

I don't know who sang it, but it should be "What this country needs is a LOT more steel guitar."

Well, this won't necessary satisfy the pedalistos, but here's a thing I wrote about steel a little while ago:
Play that Dobro Slow
Bryan Dupler
Play that Dobro slow
Let it moan and wail
For a body weak and a heart grown frail
Let her sing me down
When they lay me low
'Neath that blue grass south of town
Play that Dobro slow
Play that Dobro slow
Let it moan and cry
For our old friends gone to the by and by
Brother, lay that steel
Down across those strings
And always know the song you play
Is a precious thing
Play that Dobro slow
Pick it loud and true
In my dyin' time, play it sweet and blue
Let the notes ring on
'Til they fade away
And we play these songs together
Again someday.
[Repeat first].
Copr.1999 Bryan Lester Dupler
