Following a steel guitar version of a popular Beatles tune a few weeks ago, here is a version of the second-most covered Beatles song composed by my favourite Beatle, George Harrison. This is from my CD album "Steelography" of a few years ago though I play it slightly differently nowadays (not recorded yet), replacing the order of the original F - Eb - G7 - A / F - Eb - G7 - C outro which, to me, sounds better...

Frank Sinatra called "Something" one of the greatest love songs ever written.

Enjoy!

PS: That Soundcloud bug again: If you wish to end listening at the end of the track, please press "pause".

Kay, you are one class act. That is a fine rendition of GH's song. Love the violin effect.

Adrienne, David,

Grateful for the appreciation. The "violin" effect was achieved with a Boss FV-300L foot pedal.

Wishing you a Musical New Year!

Thanks for the appreciation, Deirdre. I hope he approves my inversion of his outro (not in this recording, but the way I play it nowadays) !

Wishing You a Happy Steel Guitar Year.
