Steelin' The Blues A Must Know Tune in C6 Tuning

Post by George Piburn »

Hello from GeorgeBoards This instruction is for the Newer Players and maybe some of the more experienced ones too.
It is my Version of the Classic Tune - I forget what LP it was on originally , Hopefully Ray Montee will fill in that information.
No Need in my lesson for TAB as this is a must Know By Heart Tune.
It is right up there with Sleepwalk as a Steel Guitar Standard and always pleases every audience -- well worth the effort to create your version.

It would be great if Doug and some of the other teachers will add their Versions too.

Hope you like it !!

Nice job, George. I never learned this one. Probably because most of the country bands I played with back in the day couldn't play in C#! :lol:
