Lap steel recommendations?

Post by Ask Kjaergaard »

I really like Greg Leisz' style of lap steel playing. Could any of you recommend some other lap steel players, who play the same style? Just for inspiration...

Greg Leisz has played with so many players in so many styles, it's hard to recommend a particular steel player who sounds like him. Do you like his work with Bill Frisell? With k.d. lang? With Dave Alvin?

Here's a previous discussion of Greg's playing that might be helpful.

I was thinking of his work with Bill Frisell. Especially on Frisell's "Blues Dream". That sort of stuff...
