Fantastic!

The man is simply awesome!

Folks who have never played the instrument have no idea how hard it is to make it look that easy.

Also I might add the awesome Bobby Caldwell on Guitar. This is a keeper cut. Rick Boyer looks like he's having a blast.

Gee, can someone post whatever pedal setup he's using? Also,
how many levers do he have on that neck? Is he using one of those special bars that give special good tone? Sounds real round and fat, too! Must be one of them tweed applefryers!

You know, after watching and listening a 2nd time, I believe that's as good an example of "IT" as I've ever heard!

Bill Simmons · Post by **Bill Simmons** » 2 Mar 2007 3:35 pm

WOW! I'm so excited to see "one of my students" do so well!!!! HA HA! Maurice is one of my steel guitar hero's

I think the bass player was just starting to get the "feel" of things when they quit! Reece........fantastic player.

Great stuff from one of my heroes. Somebody needs to put performances like these on DVD and out there for sale, as Mike Perlowin did the Chalker video. I would stand in line all day to get one. None of us are getting any younger and if it doesn't happen soon, this stuff will be gone forever.

Bobbe Seymour · Post by **Bobbe Seymour** » 2 Mar 2007 8:23 pm

Yep! Maurice is a sight for sore ears! Got more talent in his whole body than most guys have in their little fingers! He even told me once after a job we worked together that it was a real pressure working against me and he'd love to do it again sometime if he had to, he said I had a great ear for music, I just didn't have a hole in it.
Every chord I know on the steel guitar I learned from him, ALL THREE! Now, fifty bucks to the guy that can find out what Maurice's middle name is!
Maurice and I will be playing together at the Dallas show, me on mandolin and he'll play bass. It's all planned out ! Then we sing,
He says: That Bobbe Seymour always wanted to play in the worst way, now he does, ,,,, Wha'd that mean?

A very nice swinging session from all involved.

Still Reece was on another plane harmonically.
Like a great 60's bigband jazz horn section.

The pickin' ain't over til Maurice has played. Jody.

Who says you need pedals.... just shows you how much you have on a S-12 with no pedals....Maurice is a True Master of the insrument in my eyes.

Awesome!!! Thanks to Bill Ferguson and Scotty for making it available. And to Daivd for highlighting it here!

My Saturday afternoon is complete now!

Bobbe,

That would be Frederick.

See you at the show.

That's easy money, Bobbe! It just came to me one day...like a stroke of lightning. I won't take your money, though. Let's just say it's the same as a pretty famous steel guitar (No silly, not a Rickenbacker.)

Many cities and towns have that name too! Also, an automobile, a former head-of-state, lotsa schools, yup...too easy.

Fred Shannon · Post by **Fred Shannon** » 3 Mar 2007 2:31 pm

Jeff, are you sure his middle name is not FRANKLIN instead of FREDERICK? Just a thought.

The best argument for "it's in the hands" I've heard in a long time.

The band does rip it up on this one, too. I agree with DD - great 60s-style swing band all the way.

Reece Anderson · Post by **Reece Anderson** » 3 Mar 2007 8:55 pm

We all know Bobbe is a jokester.......he knows my middle name is the same as his last name..........................................

I greatly appreciate the very kind words by each of you.
