Hi All Mike sent me this as I had lost the CD it was on. Recorded on an Emmons Loafer with a home made second neck so I could try out C6th. Dave Smile https://soundcloud.com/user-627782904/autumn-leaves

Nicely done David.

I have been taking bass guitar lessons, and this song "Autumn Leaves" is referenced quite often as a tune to learn and practice with because of the chord progression. Great for learning a walking bass line. I have been wondering what it would sound like on steel. Beautiful song. Thanks for posting.

The quality of your recordings as well as your playing are always SO GOOD. Just wish I could see you playing. You're a great musician.

I believe that Autumn Leaves was the first actual song I attempted recording after trying to figure out the C6th tuning, which I'm still trying to do.

Hi Dale Your to kind. I try my best. One day I will get set up and video. It would make it easier to post on you tube. Getting to the end of my freebees on Sound Cloud so! Just haven't got the time or money at the moment. The money pit is taking both. Dave Very Happy

My main reason for doing videos is that personally I'm more apt to watch someone play than to just listen to someone play. I think David Hartley for some of that, and especially why I do the overhead over the shoulder POV shot. I someone does something fancy I like, it speeds up finding what they did if I can see where they did it.

Setting up to video is really a pretty small and inexpensive task. I use a couple different webcams the straight on shot costing about 50 bucks. I record in my DAW as I video, and for me thats where the slowdown comes, as I'm not typically a one and done player. I'd be faster at the recording if I wasn't videoing at the same time. BUT, I think your playing prowess is pretty well honed, that you'd be able to it with little extra effort.

This is why we play the pedal steel, because there is nothing else that can evoke so much emotion and sound so beautiful...

I'm still in love with the sound, as I was told by my mentor.

Hi Dale I will get round to videoing. At the moment most of my recording is done late at night in my boxers and bare feet. (not a pretty sight) I agree I like to see it played. Dave Very Happy
