My website is up and running.
There are portions of it not available yet, but there’s still plenty to see.
None of the “BAND” stories are there yet, and only some of the “BIOS” stories are there.
Hopefully by Wednesday night, the pictures currently in the gallery will have text accompanying them which would explain who, where, when, etc.
Of course I invite you all to view the entire website when your time allows.
To those who are primarily interested in the pedal steel portions of the website, allow me to steer you in the right direction by advising the following:
After arriving at and reading the Home Page, click on the BIOS link.
From there, click on the PSG History link, and hopefully enjoy the reading.
I tried my best to mention names and give credits whenever possible, and you will see Forum members mentioned in this area. It will also give you a little description of what you can expect to hear from certain songs on my jukebox in the MP3 section.
After reading my psg history, you may want to click on the MP3s link, and follow the directions there in my jukebox. There you’ll be able to hear various song segments posted for your listening (pleasure,enjoyment) – well OK, I can’t guarantee you’ll enjoy it, but none the less, you can hear them.
A couple of mp3s in particular I’d like to draw your attention to are:
Sharp Dressed Man, which I feel is a good example of psg used in place of a 6-string rock guitar
and Hatikvah, which is an example of using the psg to playing the melody of a Hebrew song in a minor key.
Here’s the link to the website: www.MarcFriedland.com
ps – I will be very surprised if pedal steel guitar players don’t recognize what so far, no one else has noticed about the design of my website. Or maybe it’s not as obvious as we thought.
Also -- My Music History in BIOS should make for interesting reading, and explain who the other players are appearing in the pictures and on the MP3s.
Don’t forget to check the “LINKS” page
Thanks,
Marc

"Cool Looking Site", Lotsa old pics and you've obviously been doing this for some time just like alot of us. I liked the pictures of you in the "Old Days", anyway it's good to see that you've kept up with your music and hooked up with good folks up north also dug the color on your website which is the same color of your "Carter" if I'm not mistaken.
say Hi to the wife and daughter and Congrats on your new website.

Thanks Billy,
You were the 1st to notice, or the 1st to mention it anyway.
Yes it is the exact color of my Carter.
Actually if you look carefully, you'll notice legs attached to it also.
It is basically intended to look like my Carter but without pedals or strings shown.
