Many folks when listening to music to their liking, listen ONLY to the lyrics; others, the voice inflections of the vocalist; others, the overall sounds of the band; still, some zero in on the steel player.
NOW, that YOUR EARS have pin-pointed the sounds of the steel guitar, do you allow yourself to become mesmerized by the overall
great sounds or do YOU, actually concentrate entirely on the bar hand? Sliding INTO or OUT OF certain phrases of the song.....
Over the years, I've noted that quite a few steel players "slide up and into" a phrase yet, seldom, if ever, slide DOWN and into a phrase, or, slide down off of the last note/chord played.
What's your pleasure in this regard?
