I posted this original tune a while back in A6th but recently re-wrote the melody and found I liked it better on acoustic in Open D. It's a Caribbean/Calypso cliche but still fun to play with all those syncopated accents. Audio link at the bottom of the post.

Great, that gives a better idea than the computerized version!

Nice Andy! I like Caribbean music on the steel. Thanks for sharing your music.

I just wondered if you've heard this one:

Cool, Scott! That's a new one to me and fun to hear. Thanks. I think I needed some coffee before recording. My Dobro and it's operator were both slightly out of tune. Yeah, I was going for a folky vibe, that's my story. Smile
