Leah on lap steel

A quick arrangement of one of my favorite Roy Orbison tunes. 1951 Rickenbacker BD6 lap steel into a Fender Deluxe Reverb reissue. C6 tuning. Backing on a 1957 Gibson J-45.

I see you've maybe been down the speaker swapping rabbit hole too, with the Celestion 10" in the background! Ha.

Nice job on a favourite of mine.

I love the verse where he gets his foot caught in a giant clam, just like the old movies.
