Canadian Sunset - Playing along with BE's rhythm-track
This is "Canadian Sunset" from Buddy Emmons Swing Series.
I am playing along with the rhythm track.
As usual, it never comes out exactly as planned!... but...

That is an 80's MCI S12U 8x5 that I bought off of Craigslist recently.
It sounds really great and is super fun to play.
I think it has to do with being 24" Scale???
Fits me real well.
I play a chord that uses P5+P6+P7 at the very end of the Bridge, at 1min-45sec, and again at 2min-50sec.
I think it's cool because you go from the open 4-chord position, to a three-pedal-er that drops/raises 4 adjacent strings affectd by P5+P6+P7.
I call it... An Augmented Diminished Chord, ha ha!
I'm serious
Also, one thing I have found about learning these old Standards from the BE Swing Series is, I can play along with other famous versions of the song on YouTube (easy to transpose to the different Keys once you know the song).
I was playing Canadian Sunset along with the Keely Smith Big-Band version, and, as a big Louie Prima & Keely Smith fan, that is fun for me

The Buddy Emmons version starts at 22min 30sec:

Also, In this live RedNeck Jazz version, Buddy plays this song using both necks!... and, I need to get an EBow!

Which is a great for playing on The Universal Tuning
I play those long slides in E9.
Then is goes right to P5 with E's lowered, etc...
One more!....
There is some great Buddy Emmons Steel playing on this excellent recording/version!
