Tom Cochrane's "Just Like Ali"

This song and video is actually getting play in the Rock/Pop media here in Canada.
It's number 20 something in the hit parade.

It features a lot of Steel Guitar!

The video is available for free viewing at Tom's website. It's the "Just Like Ali" link on the left center of the main page.

If you ONLY like Steel in a traditional setting this is NOT for you.

I really like it. Kinda like a Dire Straits vibe. This is the kind of exposure Steel needs, IMO.

Thanks for featuring Steel in your work, Tom!

Hey Joey;

That's Ken Greer on steel right? I Saw them do the song on Mike Bullard before Christmas and he was playing a MOTS lap steel (Supro/Valco) of some sort.

He was/is a longtime member of Red Rider - I guess they're gonna tour again later this year; looking forward to it.

I remember seeing him with a band called Big Faith about 10-12 years ago rocking out on an old Sho-Bud - very cool

or a dangerous dilution of PSG purity - depending on one's opinion, at least as shared on some parts of this forum

Correct Greg! Ken Greer on an old Fender.
