Sad news, Herb. I used to drive Neil home to Mom Upchurch's from the Den sometimes (because he didn't drive). We'd go up to his room and drink a beer and listen to Buddy and talk steel guitar. I got m ...

Sorry, your email never arrived, it seems. Maybe something from the Clearance page will work, since it'll be a while before she can get to new orders.

I'll notify management, Robert.

Hey Randall, yeah you can order it from the specials contact form on the specials page. Thanks!

Weâ€™re kinda backed up here at Sharp Covers Nashville, with a 2-month turnaround on new covers, what with vinyl being hard to get during this shutdown, but Leann has some covers ready to go out ...

Amp and steel guitar covers at Sharp Covers Nashville. Holler at Leann!

That would be John Heinrich.

Joe Goldmark was kind enough to send me a copy of his latest CD, Blue Steel, recently, and itâ€™s mighty fine listening, especially Look What Thoughts Will Do and Beautician Blues. Check it out a ...

I've noticed that in my playing, too. I [url=http://steelguitarmadness.com/insanity/dude-wheres-my-chops/] blogged about it.

I scratched down some thoughts on being a Nashville steel guitar player in the [url=http://steelguitarmadness.com/insanity/] Steel Guitar Insanity blog.

If you Google rvzr2 you'll see what it is and what you can do about it.

Price did "A Way To Survive" in C on the original record that we all know and love, but he's been doing it in A more recently. Maybe not convenient for the steel player, but Mike Cass doesn' ...

If you don't have D backed up you might ought to do that on an external hard drive. But then you've got the possibility of backing up the virus with it, but that's better than no backup.

I have pre-composed a couple solos. The first 8 bars of "I've Got Rhythm" fits in "Workin' Man Blues" and the first 6 bars of the Simpson's theme song works in "Emit A Slut&qu ...

I hate the song so much that I have no desire to hear it, no matter what key.
How many chick singers does it take to sing "Crazy"?
All of them.

This thread brings back fond memories o ...

I heard a story about Buddy on a session, and I know this ain't the first time this happened. The producer had him make several passes at his solo, and every one was perfect, different and a keeper.

But I'm not gonna tell Vince Gill he shouldn't cover Ernest Tubb.

Oddly enough, Martina McBride does "Thanks A Lot" in the original key.

I got a gig one time because the previous steel guitar player insulted the artist's cajones by complaining that he did songs in chick keys, like F# and B.

Ray, what was funny, at least to me, about the Midnight Jamboree gig was that I knew the songs better than Buddy did because Iâ€™d been trying to copy his licks as best I could from Darrellâ€� ...

Heh, when you're playing sessions you might only play a song, or just your part in a song, a couple times in the studio and then never again, unless you're working with the artist on a regular basis o ...

I don't have anything on hand as relevant to my previous post as I'd like, but this is real close, and should palliate all you steel guitar crazies. Buddy doesn't seem to need a chart for this number. ...

The Gigantic E was backing up Darrell McCall at the Midnight Jamboree, and not only did he not know the steel parts - on songs he'd where he'd been on the session - he didn't even know the changes, an ...
