The Steel Guitar Forum

This is a take from BULA HULA - one of the tunes that Herb & I wrote and recorded for our upcoming CD.




Here is the multi-media page with the file embedded, and
here is the mp3 itself.

Looks like a winner and sounds great. Now check your e mail regarding our telephone conversation

Nice tune...keep up the good work. You two have got the good life down there in Florida.

Rick,

More great "Swingin' West" air play! Keep the good stuff coming!

Mike

Rick-Sounds like the real thing. Real Hawaiian.

I was just playing Herb's old tape, "Steelin Memories" and it is some great playing, the way I like it.

Is that a National New Yorker in the picture?...al

Great tune guys!

Wow, I am back in the 30's with Sol and Dick!

And the sound recording is better too.

Sounds like a great album in the works.

Nice job guys! That has a great melody. Herb's phrasing is exceptional. Rick I think you may be enjoying that uke too much...

Keep teasing us. The CD will do great.

Rick, The song sounds great!! you and Herb are the greatest. Can not wate to get the cd.
all the best, Drew

Thanks Jody - you're next buddy!

Thank you Don - that great lap steel stand you made for me sure comes in handy!


Mikey - I appreciate that pal!

Mike - what can I say, you are the best!! I put a promotional copy in the mail as you requested. Thanks for being Real Music's Best Friend!

Al, as you can see from the above pic
- that is indeed a National New Yorker on the stand.

David L. - you have an ear for steels my friend. While it's not a double neck, both Herb's steel part (melody) and mine (the other part) were played on Ricky Bakelites.


Thanks Andy - much appreciated!


G-man, how could anyone possibly enjoy a ukulele too much??

Especially this one. Before Herb came here for the sessions he told me I needed to get a Martin Soprano Uke. He was so right.


Thank you Ron & Ron for sipping your caffeinated beverages to the BULA HULA!


Thanks Drew - I be working on it . .


Guys, I told Herb about all your comments - it made his day!

Rick,

I'll be looking for the CD to arrive and will gladly be using it on "Swingin' West."

Thanks, amigo!

Mike

You guys are having too much fun! I am really looking forward to the CD.

Thanks for entertaining us.

Rick-You and Herb make quite a talented pair.

I used to play a national New Yorker , played a lot of gigs with it Hawaiian and pop. Around 1937.

That tone control on the end had 3 clik stops and could go from bass to treble in a flash to get that boowah.

I liked it but traded it in for a Vega D8 non pedal. I should have kept it , but didn't have money enough to keep two steels. ..al

Makes me want to do the HULA.

Chuck, that's the ultimate compliment anyone could give to this song!


Al, yep New Yorkers are sweet alright. I have a 30s 8 string too and I really like it, especially since I installed the Rick Aiello NIBro magnets. The string spacing is a little close though, it takes some getting used to . .

Mike R - thank you! I'm working on it . .

Mike G - thanks so much for playing our music on Swingin West !

Rick,

My pleasure to play your music. I have this "Bula Hula" dandy on next Friday.
