Hi All

My Son finished his Degree work in Creative Music Production yesterday, so today I claimed back some of my recording equipment. The result: a version of Shenandoah that should be seen as a first stab at, for me, the ultimate pedal steel piece. I can do better, but in the meantime, this is the best I can do...a life's work ahead!

Thanks for listening (if you do).

Gary

Very nice Gary, enjoyed that very much.

Thanks Roy, much appreciated. I'm going to have a go at a solo version today, kinda like Emmons (or Gary Carter) but much, much worse!!

Gary

Love the feel, Gary. I'm standing here watching the Clyde meander by, and this is a great accompaniment

Thanks Danny...I love rivers...no 'social distancing' required! I have now posted a solo (ish) version of Shenandoah on Soundcloud. I wish I could say I nailed it first time, but I got close on the 27th take...close enough for today anyway.

Excellent Gary, such a plaintive melody. I liked the 20 stringer at the last go round.

This is nice, well played, soothing. Donny.

...actually, the last go around was a 36 stringer...3 x 12...the only way I could hide all my mistakes!!!

Hi John

Thanks

The Emmons? A Black Rock 3 x 4...remember you were interested in p-exing it for your Blondie D10...but I bought the Williams U12 instead. I sold the Emmons last year...got £1300 for it, not bad. It was a lovely guitar, but the different setup got in the way of changing my muscle memory for the new Williams, so it had to go.
