Any Christmas song in general..they all sound so great on steel.
In particular, I would suggest:
Oh Come all Ye Faithful
Oh Holy Night
Silent Night
It came upon a Midnight clear
These 4 songs have made a lasting impression on me when I hear them on steel.
But like I said - any song fits so superbly to steel.
Pedal steel was custom made for Christmas!

"Away In A Manger" is a good one for steel too and "Silent Night", "Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem", and "Oh Holy Night".

Ed, bless you. What a great thing to do for the little ones- introducing the steel guitar to the young impressionable minds! I believe that this is where it has to start in our duty to promote the steel.
I just wish it were possible for my own grand daughters (1st grade and SK) to attend such an event.

Landon:
Mike Sweeney cut a very nice Christmas Cd a few years back. There is a rhythm track with it and it is great.All the standard great songs are on there.
You might contact him and see if it is still available. |
