The Steel Guitar Forum

The CDs are in and the cover is being finished up. Total package should be ready Friday June 18, so shipping should be starting on Monday the 21st.

This is one of the best CDs I've heard. Everything about it is done with class. Song selection, arrangements, performance, and quality of recording.

Billy Williams is to be commended for his work on guitar as well as his engineering of this project. This is the best partnership I've heard of a guitar along with a steel. Each one compliments each other rather than being in competition.

We will have a link soon so you can see the cover and tray card.
CDs will be available through Fran at Jeffran Music. 615-237-9422 I'm sure you can pre-order yours now. It will only be a few days until they are shipped. I expect a big response for these!

The songs are:
1. Dance With Me
2. When I Dream
3. Who's Sorry Now
4. The Very Thought of You
5. Canadian Sunset
6. True Love Ways
7. Pretty Woman
8. If I Had You
9. Here's That Rainy Day
10. I Don't Believe I'll Fall In Love Today
11. Sweet Dreams
12. Old Dogs & Children & Watermelon Wine
13. I Love You So Much It Hurts Me

Hi Randy

Any chance that we can get the tracks as well?

Hello Clive.

At this time no tracks will be available. As to in the future? Maybe. Fran is just taking it one step at a time.

If tracks become available, I want them as well!<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Randy Beavers on 17 June 2004 at 06:08 AM.]</p></FONT>

Will these be available at the super jam?

JJ, I'm not sure if they will be at the Super Jam. Best bet is to order them from Fran. We're going to pick them up today.

Randy asked me to post a copy of the new Jeff Newman CD cover. Here it is



I can't wait to hear it!<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Tommy Dodd on 18 June 2004 at 10:45 AM.]</p></FONT>

Hi Randy
I gotta get the CD, In Pheonix, Jeff Played "I love You So Much" one evening during the seminar. It moved me so, I asked him to play it each afternoon and of course, it just got better each time. Do I need to call Fran or can I email order?
Thanks

Hello Bill.

It would be better to call than e-mail. They have a toll free number to place orders, 1-800-373-3418. The office number is for information, 1-615-237-9422. Someone is always there to answer the phone during office hours.

Randy-I will sure order that one! Thanks for the notification. Give my best wishes to Fran........al

Hi Randy

What is the cost of the new CD?

Randy
Pass on to Fran that we would be happy to sell some of Jeffs CD's at our August Show and Future events.

Buddy and I discussed this in April. We want to Show our appreciation for the times that Jeff performed at Saluda.

Have her contact Buddy, if she would like for us to do this.

Hey Randy, I spoke with Fran this morning, and mine will soon be on its way. She told me how wonderful you and Paul Jr. have been.
I also would like to say how much I have enjoyed your awesome CD, which you did on a instrument of ten strings. psalm 33:2

It's been only three months and it's still
difficult for me and Jan to fathom. Having known Jeff for a long while as a student and "fan" and then later as my father-in-law(he tried to talk my wife out of it "steel players are strange you know"(she knows and has known!).I'd just like to say that the CD is wonderful and truly captures all the things that he was. Once again he leaves us with inspiration....and a smile. Sincerely,Rick K.

------------------

This CD Will Be available At The Saluda August Show.

Great news John! I will be sure to get my copy at the Saluda show. Thanks for checking into this for us.

Bruce

This is the best recording Jeff ever did, IMHO.

I received my copy this past Saturday. I totally agree with Randy Beavers. This Album is one of the best that I have ever heard.

This is a wonderful CD. I just recieved mine and was playing it last night. My wife normally does not like steel CD's. She said what are you playing, it really sounded good. Everyone should have this CD. I agree that this is Jeff's best recording ever.

BILL ERB

I received mine Friday 6 25. Fantastic, a must have for any Jeff Newman Fan!

James

i just got through listening to mine; its everything I thought it would be. What a loss to the steel guitar world! And what a loss of a wonderful and talented individual who without a doubt did more to advance and promote the steel guitar to the many enthusiasts. His CD just reinforces what a wonderful talent he was. On a positive note, look at what he left for us on this CD and all the courses that will live on for years and years. Jeff is a tough act to follow.

How Much Is The CD? SONNY.

------------------

I got my two copies today. What can I say that has not been said. This is Jeff at his best. If you like Jeff's playing and some of the best E9th playing in the world, get this CD. Thanks Jeff.....

Again, This CD will be available for Sale at the August Show at Saluda. As well as Randy Beavers new CD and Hopefully Ron Elliot's.
