Al’s pedal steel is up front and all over this gem from The Way’s “Cowboy’s Dream”.

THIS is County Rock,

Mike Pinder, founding member of the Moody Blues, has died. His keyboard and Mellotron work was integral to the amazing music the band introduced us to.

I second Peter’s comment on Charlie’s Slide Pro Capo. Amazing sustain and super-easy on and off. You won’t be disappointed.....

It’s either fearless or foolish to tackle a great song like this, but people need to be reminded of such gems....

Jim, that is so great! What a cool gig... excellent band and your playing is great.

Hey Chris, this link takes you to a post on my PSG/B3 journey. Includes discussion of FX, technique, etc. Have fun on your own journey!

All three appear to be twins….

As I understand it, a Princeton 112 is a 35 watt solid state amp, not the single 10” 12-watt tube amp with a standby switch....

It's been awhile..... anybody else lately?

What a fun song! Hope you enjoy…

I use mine strictly through the Non drive channel, augmented with a Fender SFX Satellite slave amp (90W/12”). My “B3/Leslie” effect sounds huge, even the straight steel stuff.

Here’s our hero at his best….. “B3” w/Leslie on E9 then ferocious slide solo on C6. Even the infamous baring with the folding chair (try that with a pack a seat!), everything but the lighter f ...

David, this is sooo nice.... just beautiful! Great playing and soul

Jerry was saying….

“Oh, you have a double stack? That’s cute.”

Garden Party loved Jimmy Buffett and we always tried to include his songs in our sets. A truly gifted fellow who is greatly missed….

A great loss. Such a talented musician, vocalist and all around nice guy.

Amen Larry..... brought back so many memories of touring with Hallelujah! In the early 70’s. We have that great Hope and we will get together one more time. Thanks Dom, so good to hear your voice an ...

Hey Dom, another great one. I love the double-tracked pedal steel….. very Bethlehem, and you’ve always got a bit of the Sneeky Pete vibe. Great song writing and production…. and a great story. ...

Sounds spot on to me. And with the bouncing exuberance that Jerry played with.

So very nice Jim. There’s the joy of making music right there. Thanks for sharing.

My recommendation for “organ” is the B9. For “Leslie” it’s the Neo Ventilator II (allows for a remote half moon switch so you can easily ramp the speed up or down).

See my thoughts on ps ...

No suggestions for a “piano” FX, but I use a B9 and get killer B3 sounds. Constantly getting compliments on how much it sounds like an organ. However, the B9 is just one element in getting to soun ...

Dom, this is so good! A truly “up” song in every way. This is my favorite song in recent times. Great country-rock feel with such nice flat picking and dobro. Carry on, brother.
