It seems to be one of those mornings. An idea sticks in your head and you just can't let it go.

Listening to a youtube this morning, one of our friends played this cool little run. After I had tabbed it out,
I started breaking it down and wala, simple magic that is endlessly usable. Bare in mind, magic to ones ears
may not be magic to another's. And of course it is not hard...

Simple, right... Bare with me here. I promise, it gets better.

Your asking yourself, has the old fellow lost it? Weeeeeeell, moving on.

My point, any note can be a stopping point, a starting point or a reversal point.
I hope you get my point.

Cool Stuff! I think me myself I prefer to start by sliding from fret 2 to 3 (string Cool but end with the E lever.

I see your point Alex, that may set up the picking order a little better for someone. Both will work and one reasons I believe pedal steel is such an awesome instrument. So many options.

Thank you for looking over my tabs, I think yours are great and try not to miss anything you put up.

Dick

Did you mean to play over an A or a G? Sounds like it works in A but very minor sounding?

thx

bob
