Hi lapsteelers !
Another instrumental. This one was composed by the danish piano player Bent Fabricius,
and I always liked the 45 because of the special mix with the echoing/verby sound.
Not easy on lapsteel. Halfway I changed the positions of playing the theme.
I started with slants around the 5th fret, but I had too much problems with intonation.
So now it's "bar hopping". . 
In the second part, on the high octave, I kept the original settings. They'll also take some time . .
My version on YouTube is here:

If you like the challenge, just email me, and I'll send the 3-page PDF and backing track. For free as ever.
With best regards,
Bert

Bert this is a very unique song that shows another aspect of the steel guitar. Well done sir!
