Hi All

I usually avoid resorting to the signature B6 (C6) sound on my universal steel, partly because I bought this steel precisely to avoid thinking in the dualistic (and to me outmoded) 'country'/ 'jazz' divide, and secondly because (to be honest) I'm not even all that keen on the classic C6 sound, even at the hands of the best like Emmons et. al. All of that said though, I kind of fell into on this track and it kinda works...see what you think. Be warned though: it ain't jazz!!!

Nice playing. Refreshing sounds. Modern with good roots.
