I did a quick Yahoo search for "Steel Guitar Tribute To Eric Clapton" and could only find that it was recorded by "Various Artists". That sure is a popular guy! Image

Damn! And I wanted to put "Layla" on my next CD. Guess I've been scooped again!

Nope, Sneaky Pete and Rusty Young already covered it on "Suite Steel" in the late '60s.
Jim, you could take a swing at "Pressed Rat and Warthog" though Image

Ever hear "I Am Yours" from the Layla
album? Very nice tune with some possibilities
for steel. (Could use a bridge though...)
Also "Your baby has gone down the plug-o"
from Cream ;^)<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Joel Glassman on 02 November 2001 at 01:18 PM.]</p></FONT>

Were you going to leave out the out of tune slide playing at the end? (Oops I guess I ticked off even more Duane Allman slide fans....)
