Truthfully, sometimes you don’t want to mess with perfection, which is what Patsy’s recording is. But sometimes it’s impossible to resist.
I recorded the bass part first, which is really what inspired me to want to play the song. I played all the guitars as well—the only instrument not played by me is drums. I’m not a Country musician but I try to understand as much as I can about every style of music I listen to. All the parts were recorded in complete takes, no punching in.
I played my Clinesmith cast aluminum lap steel in C6 (6 string—I’ve removed the two bottom strings). I hope you get some enjoyment out of it.

Very nice, good tones and flawless performance.
It wouldn't bother me to hear how you get such clean tracks. |

Really great Mike, being outta your wheelhouse, but as good as you are you can play any style with command.
Love the new hat too, gives you the street cred! _________________ Regards, Craig

Craig, that was Buddy Charleton’s hat.
[Edit: Autocorrect changed Charleton to Charleston and I didn't catch it.] _________________ Links to streaming music, websites, YouTube: Links

Thanks for sharing another sweet one Mike. If you opened a steel guitar candy shop, there would be jars & jars of tasty riff & treats! |
