Here's a lovely piece I thought I'd take a stab at arranging on E9-10. It's " I remember Clifford" written by Jazz saxophonist Benny Golson in 1959 as a tribute to the late Clifford Brown who died the tender age of 25.
This is just steel solo with no backing tracks, so a bit sparse. The audio track coincides with the video with only a very minor audio edit part way through. I was just too lazy to try and get it all in one pass  .

| Very nice. Mind boggling what all those pedals and strings can do. |

| This is remarkable! I also saw your 'Polkadots and Moonbeams' video after this one and have spent the rest of the afternoon working to imitate some of these incredible chords you're getting out of the E9 -- I never realized they were all hiding in there! Fantastic stuff. |

Thanks for the nice words Ross. Glad you liked it! The pedals/levers aren't really anything out of the ordinary. Standard Emmons floor pedals, and the knee levers are also commonly used changes.
As you saw the "Polkadots and Moonbeams" video I made a few years back, at around 2:00 in, I describe the copedent as used. This song uses an additional knee lever, the 3 knee changes as described plus a 4th knee for a B to Bb change on strings 5 & 10. Note this change also must split with the "A" floor pedal yielding a C natural. I have the Eb and F knee levers on the same knee (right, in my case), the others on the other knee.
I hope this is helpful . ...Mark |
