Interesting overall and that he hooked up with Jim West who does some fine work on his own CDs. This pretty laid back, not sure I could handle the entire CD at that pace. |

Man, I'm not a fan of the Eagles by any stretch of the imagination, but Greg Leisz is so good and I trust his choices so that I'd probably have to buy it. Thanks for bringing it to light. _________________ Links to streaming music, websites, YouTube: Links |

this cd is not by Greg Leisz and he didn't even play on it. The credit on it is a mistake.
The producer, Kimo West played all non-pedal guitar. |

thanks for the update on Hotel Honolulu, i was puzzled and did not think the steel guitar playing was up there in the greg leisz class...
wonder why this CD has the erroneous credits... |

Greg was going to play on it, but didn't in the end, and the producer evidently sent his name to the printer, way ahead of schedule. |

thanks for the update, rich. in my opinion greg leisz is a very talented and versatile player, i saw him at a k.d.lang concert. you may recall k.d's now famous quote regarding his steel guitar playing..... listen also to his version of "moana chimes" on the soundtrack of the film "punch drunk love".
on the other theme: i listened to samples of the three "Hawaiian Tribute" albums ( Bob Marley, Rascal Flatt, Sublime(?)) there are some very interesting cross-overs and refreshing steel guitar and ukulele sounds and stylings there. I had always wondered about reggae and steel...maybe, Bill, the "Hawaiian Tribute" topic calls for a thread of its own since you introduced us to it....
