Personally, I love it especially the part where he let the steel do the work (with no picking)...it was darned clever.

Maybe someone can post the version Jeff's refering to...I don't have it, but I have heard it, and concur with Jeff's description of the "Chinese 5th" type of harmonies..

Does anyone know of any CD`s besides the History of Hawaiian Steel on Cord where I can hear Jules? I`m sorry to say I just got hip to him and I sure would like to hear more.

One of the great crooners of all time.
Bing Crosby said he was the greatest ever,

I have Hawiian Favoirites with Danny Stewarts band.
Be fore I move down south, I recorded a very nice version of Sleepy Lagoon, with a Paris buddy.

He had borrowed a triple neck for the session, but wasn't used to the tunes, more a dobro cat,
so only 63 takes for the steel part LOL.
Came out nice anyway.

Just heard Geralds posted clip. Cool, song.
I like the slack-key intro
It has indian influences in the singlenote solo section, but I don't really hear the chinese.
I do like it, and a nice ukelele line too.

Sounds like a good tune for Jeff to play at the Convention, without the "vanilla"
