This is one of the tunes that made me fall in love with the steel guitar back in the day. My understanding is that he played it in E9…here it is in C6 on a Magnatone.

Excellent Steve. Love the vibe and urgency! I can do behind the bar strung pulls but not with my little finger. I am wincing thinking about it! Mike

Thanks Mike! I wish I had learned to do pulls with a different finger, but at this point I'm pretty committed to the pinky...just gotta keep up with the PED regimens! Laughing
