Bumping .... Steve t

Here is my favorite cut on the CD.

Nice work Harold! Hey I don't thibk it's on the Bakersfield album, but has anyone attempted "a world without Haggard" yet? Beautiful tune and I love Paul's playing on it, as always.

I may have missed it, but had anyone tabbed "I can't be myself when I'm with you"? Love that song.....love the whole album!

Stwve, what cut was it....link doesn't work

It was on a Chinese site. The cut is: HE DONT DESERVE YOU ANYMORE. I just tried it and it works for me. Maybe it is blocked in the USA. I have this same cut in my BAKERSFIELD CD

I assume it right...still doesn't work here.

Jim, buy the BAKERSFIELD. CD Vince Gill and Paul Franklin. Great CD. I bought two, one for,myself and one for my 91 year old uncle. We both love it

I'm in Beijing so that could be why it comes up here. Anybody in Europe or Australia,etc. able to access this?

Jim, what comes up when you click on the link?

Just a line of Chinese characters steve

This is an old topic I realize, but this album is timeless. The intro and solo for "high on a hilltop" is one I'm curious if anyone has been able to figure out as well. If anyone has and could share, I'd be much obliged!

Same with me 🤥

I'm not a guy who can write tab qell. But since my last request I sat down and really tried to dissect the intro to high on a hilltop and I'm pretty dang close. Bow the solo at the end, totally different story! Lol

Now's your chance to check your TABs!

*On sale now with a limited-time Launch Special price

I purchased this course earlier today and I couldn't be more pleased. We all know what a hit the Bakersfield album was and now, we can learn how Paul played 12 of these songs from the man himself. Not only that, but Paul arma you with the tools necessary to play this style which is is near the hearts of many of us.
I couldn't reccomend this course any more highly! The fantastic work students of Pauls method have come to know and love continues in West Coast Pedal Steel.
