Hi lapsteelers, a little project this time!
Mike Beith from the UK had some requests, and then wrote:
One of my all time favourites, but played on pedal steel, is Tom Brumleys 'Neosho Waltz'.
Now that would be a challenge on C6.
Indeed it was, Mike!
A matter of reducing those massive pedalsteel chords to the essential notes on a simple 6-string.
I think with reasonable result, and I hope you agree over there.
Tom Brumley starts in the key of E and modulates in the middle to F.
I followed him rather close through the song.
You'll find this "arrangement" goes really high on the fretboard.
So I decided to add another second part in F, but in a lower octave.
I slowed down the original a bit, and made a play-along track.
Which I'll have to play along with for many times to make it really flow!
It's the complete song, followed by a 2 bar countdown, and the second part again in the low lapsteel version.
Finally I turned it to a clip showing the tab lines on the screen.
Now this clip is a "hidden one", because the original music is in it.
But this is the link: https://youtu.be/HLzUhjtOr6I
Tom Brumley's original is here: https://youtu.be/s3N2CASPY00
Probably one for people that dare to study, haha!
If you still want the complete PDF or the play-along as mp3,
just email me, and I'll send it for free.
Hope you like this contribution too, let me know, all the best,
Bert

Thanks so much, mrs. Brumley!
Again, it feels a bit like translating the master player to a toy instrument, but a tribute it is ! |

I love the way the tab is embedded in your YouTube video. The settings feature allows me to custom the playback speed so it can be slowed down - a lot. It's a great learning tool. Thanks Bert, for all your hard work. |
