Thanks, Doug. It certainly was a ton of work to produce but hopefully, it will add to the conversation about how versatile C6th lap steel is for all kinds of music.
It also helped me refine a few arrangements I've been playing for years by ear but never wrote down or played quite the same way twice ... like this version Shenandoah from 2007 which differs slightly from the new one in the book: http://www.reso-nation.org/audio/andy-volk/shenandoah-lap-steel-remastered

The first run isn't here yet - probably about 2 weeks till I can ship. I guess I need to fool the site and put in a quantity of books as "in stock" or it automatically reads sold out. Also - added a new Soundcloud link above for the TJB's original version of the song "Rosemary."
ALSO my book of B11th Arrangements is $5 cheaper thru the holidays.
