The Steel Guitar Forum

Has anyone seen a video of Buddy Emmons or anyone else covering Somewhere Over the Rainbow? Just trying to one-up a friend of mine who keeps sending me Youtube links to different guitar players playing it.

Thanks in advance -

This C6 version by Carco Clave from the Peavey room at the 2008 ISGC is fantastic:

His tone and performance were some of my favorites from the entire convention.

Paul,

We had the Great Steel Guiartist Terry Bethel as a special guest at our first Annual Marshfield Steel Guitar Show 2006.

He finished his set with a solo version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow." It was one of the best jobs of playing it I have heard heard by anyone. You need to order a copy of the DVD for that show and hear his awesome version. His arrangement was just totally awesome.

I recorded with Shoji Tabuchi on one of his albums back in the early 80s but Terry Bethel has Mastered it!

Terry Wood

Buddy Charlton, IMO, does a fantastic job on this song on one of his CDs & it should be available at www.billycoopersmusic.com, in Orange, Va.

Just finished watching Buzz Evans playing "Over the Rainbow" and "Sleepwalk", and--gee, I never realized playing the steel guitar was so easy! Nothin' to it!What have I been doing wrong?!!

Terry Crisp - (Burnt to a crisp)...... The benchmark!!

Thanks, everyone. Buzz just killed me - and he made it look so easy!
