Tone hound 'Sweltering' Steve Palousek playing the Buddy Emmons inspired classic Night Life. I saw Steve play this 4 years ago at Dallas, and Paul Franklin also played the same number during his own set. I thought that Palousek's version blew away Paul's version, tone (and playing) that evening.

Nice

Wow,
If ever I upgrade from a Lap Steel to PSG, it has to be a C6 neck! I know, I know, it wouldn't be easy, but as a Jazz/Standards fan the possibilities on the neck are endless.
Thanks for posting.

Superb,love the sound!!Great playing.

Thanks Ken.
Just out of interest, do you know what the speaker cabinets are just behind him in the first clip?

Here's a recording of Night Life that Steve did in his home studio a few years back from his album Let The Games Begin. He's playing through his Walker rig, and I reckon the tone is superb. Steve's missus talked me into buying one of his courses complete with CD last year. She helped him through a very difficult period of severe alcoholism when he became extremely ill. I had arranged with Steve to visit him in his home studio 5 or 6 years back, but on the day in question he was in intensive care in a hospital. Thankfully with the support of his family he has recovered somewhat. I rate him in the top 5 steel players around at the moment.

Here is another track from Steve's album that shows off his ability on E9. Again, the tone is wonderful. He has a great ear as a recording engineer.
