Here's my band the other night backing Ivy York with "Island Song" - based on an old Indian song with new English words. It's kind of "country meets vintage bollywood". Let me know what you think.

Hi Jonathan,
Although this is not my style of music,I love the fact that I see and hear the steel in a different style- steel that's played like it should be. You are good at what you are doing. You play tastefully and don't overplay. You have the sound set like it should be. Great tone. Tell us what kind of steel and equipment you are using?
The sound is above average, considering it is likely camera audio.

Bent, thank you for your kind comments - I haven't been playing live for that long and couldn't overplay if I wanted too (!) but yes I'm aiming for a tasteful old school style.
I'm playing a '74 MSA Classic with a Truetone through a Nashville 112. I have a black box and boss GE7 in line and sho-bud volume pedal in the pre EQ loop. Effects are reverb and delay on a podXT in the post EQ loop. I'm very flattered you like the tone, it's not quite the sound I'm after but I'm gradually getting closer. |

I lke it. Something a little different, and it grows on you. Something that needs listening to several times. And the steel playing is perfect. Nice.

Johnithan: Very nice playing, indeed; Proves that it doesn't have to be " Country " to sound great; your MSA is sounding fine and easy listening. And the gal singer has a nice voice.. Send us another one, O.K ? Bernie

Thanks again for your comments. Sorry, I think the link went down for a while, should be ok now.. We're hoping to film something in higher quality soon.
I forgot to mention the bass player on this is called Lloyd Green. I've tried to convince him that he's the less famous one  |
