Last weekend I was working in the shop and really wanted to hear some lap steel instrumentals. I have a bad habit of using music selection as a procrastination tool so I tried searching for a playlist to get me started. There wasn't much. A couple collections that included pedal steel (gross, haha) but nothing that I was looking for. So, I thought I should put one together and I could really use your help.
At first I thought about just asking for particular tracks. I would still love to get those suggestions, but I'm also looking for full albums. My ultimate goal is go get a 4-5 hour list going that anyone could put on "random" and hopefully hear something new to them.
So, please give me some ideas. Individual tracks, albums. When I get a good collection going I'll share the link so anyone can enjoy it.
thanks y'all.
