It seems to be the week for playing slide guitar with spoons and banging the heck out of an Ovation ...

Nice, I like that. She also recently joined the steel guitar world recently, and now owns a very nice D10 Fessenden... Jerry played me several cuts off her records, and I will be interested in hearing her approach to the steel...

I was already impressed, a couple of years ago, with the personal path she has chosen. Last year I heard her on lap steel--not as well developed, stylistically....yet. PSG? Interesting.
I appreciate anybody who looks at something I'm looking at and sees something completely different than what I see. The world is way too large to be inhabitted by nothing but drones and clones.

Better hair and a better sense of dynamics.

Still, pretty cool.
Most ladies never even think of anything close to this as viable.
All angst and forelorn love in major and minor.
