I've never been a lap steel, or even C6 fan. I guess I'm just too honky tonk country for all that. But, this keeps getting my attention and I find myself going back and listening to it over and over. "Caravan" is a great tune. Duke Ellington I think. I can hear a lot of possibilities for different instruments in that tune.

I'm not familiar with Billy Robinson but he get a blue ribbon from me on this one. :) :) :)
