No Tears In Heaven

Bill Fall · From: Richmond, NH, USA

This has likely been answered before, so I apologize. Just wondering who played steel on this Eric Clapton song. Was it JD Maness?

Brett Day · From: Pickens, SC

Yes, Jaydee Manness played on "Tears In Heaven". Brett Day, Emmons S-10, Morrell lapsteel

Paul Graupp · From: Macon Ga USA

I'd always heard it was Weldon Myrick......

Regards, Paul

JayDee for sure!

Clapton had him play simple parts.
Later Clapton blended his guitar into the mix. A lot of people don't even know there's steel on the song.

JayDee does a steel rendition of the entire Tears In Heaven song at the end of his 1st instructional video. Very nice.

If you've ever been to a St Louis or Dallas you've heard forumite Chuck Lettes do a fantastic version of this as well.

I definitely have to echo JB's comment. Chuck does a "masterful" job on Clapton's "Tears From Heaven" on E9th. I LOVE it everytime I hear it!! Chuck really makes his Mullen "sing"!!

JD covers that tune on his Get Inside with JD Maness video
