Pretty interesting. When does it cease to be a lap steel and become a tone generator or effects work station? I don't know.

Parts of it reminded me of this kind of Koto music ....

I actually think that's the way steel is heading, and it could grow into a powerful "entry device" for the whole ambient/looping soundscape genre. Greg Liesz, Bruce Kaphan, Daniel Lanois, post-rock band Red Sparrowes*... I also suspect we may get re-invaded by the Brits again, as the Indian/Asian communities over there are getting mixed up in the musical culture and it's getting wooly. Or at least, it's more likely than re-animating Ray Price's frozen head for the comeback of country crooning.
