I never heard a steel version I didn't like. Same with "Shadow Of Your Smile".

What you guys said AND the Chalker version he did on Charlie McCoy's 197x album where the first verse is just Charlie and Curley.

I'd like to hear Curly's version, but Buddy's version on the "Black Album" is a classic to me.  |

I saw Reece Anderson play Danny Boy with 4 picks on his S12 Bb6-Maj7 tuned MSA in 1968 at Tom Bradshaw's first West Coast Pedal Steel Show in Napa, California. I'll have to admit, I was amazed .
Since then I heard Buddy and Curly's Versions and liked both of them too.....al.

| Big E on the black album, followed by Chalker on the 70's album with Charlie McCoy. Julian Tharpe's open string version also. (I believe it was open) |

I heard an unaccompanied version of Danny Boy today by Julian Tharpe on Steel Radio . Is this the version you are talking about ? To me it sounds almost painfully out of tune. Great chords,inversions,substitutions, but.....
Is there another version maybe ? The one I heard could have been a live tape or something like that.

| I agree with you Bobby. I saw Jimmy Day perform it solo live at the Austin Opry House. I think of it everytime I play that song. Sweet. |

My two favorite versions are Jerry Byrd = C-Diatonc and John βKeoniβ Bechtel = C-Diatonic! (Just kidding about the sec. choice!) It took 7-tries, but; I never did get it quite right!
