Great stuff Baz
Do you by any chance have a video of Blue Hawaii? I have been hunting an E9 version as I had a request at the club I play at. You would not believe how hard it seems to be to find that one.

Chuck, I'll do it later this evening and post it. 5-6 hours time OK ?
This should easily adapt to the E9th as it's in the E13 non pedal.
BEWARE of bars 7 and 9 the frets SHOULD be 6 not 8

Kay, Wout Steenhuis was from Holland. He was a founder member of the Dutch Swing College playing guitar. During the war (WWII) American Dixieland music was prohobited by the Germans, so Wout doubled up on Hawaiian Steel guitar and the band would play Island music during the frequent razzia's. Wout worked later in the UK and made several LP's.(One day I will transfer them to CD.)
Kay, do you know what guitar Wout played? I do not recognise the brand at all.
Baz, did you ever meet Wout?

Like many of your fans here, I try not to miss any luscious sounds or tasty tidbits, Baz. My thirst for those magically nostalgic elixers....
oops, sloshed my coffee again!
..BTW, would like to see the ENTIRE 'Hawaiian' version from you of the Third Man theme.
I've seen a video of the composer--(Anton Karas(?)sp.?) on film, playing a zither, probably in the late 30's/early 40's--hard to tell, but with an astounding display of finger dexterity, accompanying himself (one hand plucking bass strings, the other fretting down to get the melody) ..anybody else seen it, or have a link?
He looks like a mad scientist, but the music really is compelling, IMO. <font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Jon Zimmerman on 15 May 2006 at 08:13 AM.]</p></FONT>

Peter,
Lovely to hear from you and that steel guitar is alive in South Africa. From my knowledge, Wout had a very serious war injury to his arm, almost precluded him from playing guitar again, he lived later and recorded in Hampshire/Surrey or Sussex in the UK. He did many shows over the BBC, I am sure Baz would remember. He was unique in that he played steel guitar on stage with his own backing tracks.
Sounds like you have some of his albums, great. Although I found his style a little too sweet, one of my favourites is his rendering of krontjong music (a hybrid of Indonesian and Dutch influences), including the very popular " Bengawan Solo". I am afraid I do not know which guitar he played but from memory of one of his LP covers, it might have been a Rickenbacker bakelite.
