| I'm putting together a list of recordings that showcase the use of chords and chord changes employed by a steel player (non-pedal as well as pedal). I need the artists' names, tune titles and the record's reference info. Such recordings would naturally showcase the players' facility with chords and how they were employed to emphasize the expressiveness within the instrumental recording. One such recording that immediately comes to my mind is Reece Anderson's recording of "Danny Boy" of many years ago. Your input will be appreciated. ...Tom |

| Although it has single string passages, Buddy Emmons' Here's That Rainy Day immediately comes to mind. |

Tom,
Your posting really caught my eye.
I, too, am a proponent of "chordal melody".
The only reason I went from non-pedal guitar to pedal was the ability to get full, three string grips, no matter what the chord.
I am not a "lick" player, I "just play the melody" as promoted by Jeff Newman in one of his courses.

| Curly Chalker's "Big Hits on Big Steel". The first steel album I ever heard and I am still amazed at the music Curly got out of a Fender 1000. Great tone too. |
