Putting together some music for live sets, getting back to my roots.
This is an old Billy Preston classic, which I used to play many years ago when I fronted a Rhythm & Blues band with horns. I am the horn section now. 😂

Lap steel is a versatile instrument...in the right hands! I really dig what you do with it, Mike.  |

Outstanding Mike! And just as strong on the singing!!
At 1:53 minutes in- did you use a traditional WAH pedal there? |

| Mike that was great. I gotta say it's something doing it on steel and singing too. Always liked the tune because of the groove. You captured that and more. |

Soulful voice! Nice.
Great example of economy picking in the guitar break.

Wow, thanks for all the nice comments everyone.
This is what I was doing before I started playing lap steel, leading an 8-pc band. It’s taken a while but I am circling back. More of this to come.
I used an envelope filter for the solo.
Anyone interested in this type of playing might find my new book on economy picking useful.
