It would be quite a surprise to see a Randy Newman steel guitar teaching DVD! I hope tab is included for the song "Short People."


Ryan, you are thinking of Jeff Newman.

You can't go wrong with Newman courses. I've bought several and have never been disappointed in any of them. A couple weeks of drilling the Alpha exercises will get you off to a good start for sure.

Mark I thought the same thing......RANDY NEWMAN!!! HAHAHA

try his up from the top a&b pedals its a great place to start. also check out mickey adams videos, there's a lot of good stuff there

Jeff Newman's A and B pedal up from the top course,which is the first one, is excellent. He teaches you some great fill licks and the book has great scale excerises which are made interesting by playing them with the backing tracks...
Jeff shows how much stuff you can do with just these 2 pedals.
And one of the biggest things Jeff emphasizes is when NOT to play, which is just as important as when to play!

I know of no Randy Newman. There was a Jeff Newman. Excellent courses.

We crossed that bridge over a month ago Jim, but there's been no sign of Ryan since.

BTW - I saw Randy Newman at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in San Francisco a few weeks ago, just he and a grand piano. He put on a great set!

Randy Newman..."Short People"...

My brothers and I have always favored the Paul Newman Alpha.

I've been looking for the Paul Newman O's course myself. I think it was called "into the pie hole".
