Lloyd Green & Chely Wright-Listen!

Dave Van Allen · Post by **Dave Van Allen** » 12 Oct 2006 7:53 am

From a Compilation called "The Other Side:Music From East Nashville" comes a fabulous tune by Chely Wright with an amazing l-o-n-g outro solo by Lloyd Green. The tune is "WISH ME AWAY" and is featured on Chely's MySpace page:
www.myspace.com/chelywright

give it a listen I think you'll be glad you did!

Disclaimer: Last Train Home frontman Eric Brace is co-producer of the compilation. It is on Red Beet Records which is now the home of the Last Train Home catalog as well.

That's some of the nicest steel playing I've ever heard.

Thanks for turning us on, Dave

well I am glad you guys can hear it- ever since I posted the link, that one tune won't play for me on any computer I've tried; the other tunes on her site play just fine, but Wish Me Away just freezes at "connecting"

wierd.

"that one tune won't play for me on any computer I've tried"

It's interesting to hear that it's not just me who can't listen to that Lloyd solo. That particular song never downloads on my computers, while the other songs do.

Gee, this is becoming really frustrating given the overwhelming reviews from the other guys.

I too cannot get that particular song to play, but all the others do.???

It's no loner available on the site- at least not his morning- however I heard it enough times to order the CD- even if only for that song. The amazing steel guitar part made me ~~~~ thanks LLoyd

I suspect it's another MySpace glitch- i'm having mystery mail issues with my MySpace account.

I'll talk to the Comp producer and see if I can get permission to post a clip

See, the problem with Chely Wright is she's just not good-looking enough to make it in today's market.

(do I need to add the "

" here?)

Dave Van Allen · Post by **Dave Van Allen** » 13 Oct 2006 11:07 am

yeah, she's only #20 in the "top 25 most beautiful people in Nashville"... maybe if she was in the top 10... I dunno.

Billy Carr · Post by **Billy Carr** » 13 Oct 2006 7:02 pm

PSG defined by LDG! Perfect.

erik · Post by **erik** » 13 Oct 2006 7:28 pm

It won't play for me either. The other songs will, but not that one.

Weird! It wouldn't play at all in Firefox. I got it to play just once in IE. After the one play it froze on "connecting". Oh well, at least I got to hear it once! Well worth the trouble--Beautiful![This message was edited by Brint Hannay on 13 October 2006 at 08:33 PM.]

As always, Lloyd's playing is the definition of excellence. Anyone know if he was using his new Show-Pro, or was it the L.D.G.?

Michael Weaver · Post by **Michael Weaver** » 14 Oct 2006 2:54 am

It will not play for me, either.....

Michael Douchette · Post by **Michael Douchette** » 14 Oct 2006 3:15 am

I can't get it to play, either...

It's playing now and the steel work is good as it gets. I see she's playing a couple of the very local spots near here like the Basement and Family Wash. Family Wash is the remnants of a laundromat in East Nashville near my home.

This is extremely frustrating, I'm ready to request a bootleg.

Is it possible there's only one stream available per song?

Lloyd very graciously answered my question above via email. I asked his permission to post the information, as I knew there would be others who were also interested in the guitar, etc... that he used. He very kindly allowed me to post his response.

Here it is:

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Hi Lem,
Since this Chely Wright song seems to have generated a little activity here's what I used:
My new Show-Pro, Fender Twin/15" JBL and one mike. That's all.

Best regards,
Lloyd Green<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

and from the second email, here is some additional info from Lloyd.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Yes, please post the information I sent you. My heart and first love will always be my Sho-Bud, but I really like this Show-Pro. It is the nearest to a Sho-Bud sound I've heard and it plays and records beautifully. For those who care about cosmetics it's elegantly pretty too.
On future recordings I'll be heard playing either my Sho-Bud or Show-Pro, but no other. For me, all steels become extremely personal and require "acquaintance" time. I'm starting to make friends with the Show-Pro now.
Besides, I'm far more interested in music than mechanics. I don't like to think about how the steel is performing, just the music.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
So there you have it, straight from Mr. Lloyd Green himself.

Lem

I will keep trying to get permission to post the tune...
