Great Harlan Howard song.

Yes! that's a good one, with a great intro

Love this song

I’m in! 🤠

Me too!

Go for it Wiiliam it will be another one of your nice tunes

Great song and arrangement by William! Love to learn this one.Nice pick Parnell

I would like to learn this classic.

Week one was a great class, William had his Emmons polished up and it sounded as good as it looked. This week we did the fantastic intro to "When the tingle becomes a chill". This is a great song I hope we get back to for the rest in a later set of classes. We then moved on to the intro to "Pick me up on your way down" which I find to be the hardest part of the song. I am still practicing it at half speed. Oh and the technique exercises were exceptional, 3 of them can be put together for a great run. Come on and join the fun!

3.3k dudes and what a great job you did on pick me up on your way down

Thanks everyone for the comments. "Pick Me Up On Your Way Down" , It is a good song and has a lot of licks to take with you. It is not all that easy to play but lots of fun !

Join in each and every week for Steelin Techniques , my weekly Broadcast. Watch any time.

Go to pedalsteeler.com for the info on the Broadcast , technique exercises , Intros and tab and tracks for your favorite steel guitar tunes......

Not easy but it is pushing me to learn this one! I would never have been able to play this when I first started but I have grown as a player since I've been with William. Best instruction money I've ever spent!

Week two started out with a little bit of "Steel Rails" a tune I hope we come back to in more depth later. The 1 6m 2m 5, intro was very cool and I have already found places to use the low string exercise in F and the first one in C. Each lesson is packed full of little runs you can use all over the place.

This tune has lots of licks that can be used in other tunes.....I teach to always be thinking about other tunes where the licks learned can be used.

That process will speed up your learning and makes the most of your practice time....

Join me for my weekly broadcast, Steelin Techniques. Watch anytime, as many times you want.....

Try it !

And the licks you learn from William really come in handy.

Happy 4th of July! Week three was even more loaded with great licks as we had the tab to the ad lib part of William's track. That 1 4 5/7 progression is a gem and you can use it or something like that in almost any shuffle. Join us this week for more great licks and insight!

Yeah , Those adlib licks can be used and used and used...

Check out the entire tune on Youtube....I teach them like I play them..
