Very nice. I'm going to try and figure out some of those licks. Is that Jamie Aebersold backing you up?

That's some hot picking, Steve. Not bad for a bareback rider!

| Nice, Steve! Some good original licks there. Like the dissonant lick Lee mentioned as well as some of the reverse sweep picking stuff. |

Steve........as always, a fabulous display of playing with your hybrid picking style (flatpick held with thumb/index finger while middle/ring fingers pick separately).
You sure have some talent for playin'. WOW. |

Steve, you're burnin' up the wires there. Totally enjoyed it.
Could you spell out your tuning? I can't quite "see" it through the smoke!  |

I really liked your playing there, Steve. What kind of amp were you using? It was a bit too distorted through the video to tell.

Low to high the tuning is D B C# E G# B C# E, with the 8th string D up an octave.
The amp is a Peavey Special 130(solid-state). |
Neat tuning. Thanks for sharing. |

Has enyone ever competely duplicated Joaquin Murphy's rides on the Any Parker Plainsmen record ?
I have never heard his attack and phrasing by any of the great Steel Players in later years. |
