I really enjoyed hearing you sing one of my favorite tunes from the era. Really nice backing tracks--orchestral, using minimal parts--just like I would have done them.

Why do we sell these rare guitars? What should have been a terrible gui was the best lap steel sound I ever had.

Is anyone familiar with the steel player in the movie "Ford Versus Ferrari?

There is not a lot of pedal steel; mostly used in pensive moments with Carroll Shelby. It is beautiful.

What I like about the suggestion is that playing parts on a keyboard, you must think the sound--that is, play a vibes part like it's a vibraphone.

Any such endeavor directly applied to melody is a ...
