The Steel Guitar Forum

I recorded this tonight. All steel tracks recorded on my Clinesmith D-10 through a Digitech RP1000 and Sano tube amp (with Altec 417). The drum and bass track were downloaded from a backing track site.

Fab again Mike! You're on a roll.
Had to pick up my lap and try to play along!
Lowering that high E to D certainly helps.

Great, Mike!

I had no idea you are such an EXCELLENT singer. Seems you're just all-around musical, musical, musical.

Thanks for your music.

Great job Mike! Will there be big hair and spandex on the video version?

Fantastic Mike. I would say that is my favorite thing I've heard you play.

That was terrific, Mike.

How 'bout a little Highway 61 ...

I saw this on TV in the early 90's ..

LoL ...

Too bad you are not closer, I've got a 6 string face melter with a BG HellaBucker in it that I'd love to hear rock out.

Pretty cool. Pretty cool.

That was bad to the bone, down right wicked. Do some more. LOL!

First concert I ever went to- 1975 Rick opening for Foghat on their Fool for the City tour.
All American Boy has always been in my possession, every time it wore out I bought another one- now I got it digitally!

GREAT cover Mike!

Rick-
Johnny Winter and HWY 61- That man and that song is what got me into slide guitar, and meeting/watching Chris Ivey and Peter Grant is what get me hooked on steel.

Mike, I'm curious as to what tuning you used?

Scott, it's a 10 string neck, so it's an extended and modified version of C6. The mod is to lower the first string E to D. The rest is extended in the bass.
