Beautiful chords, beautifully played. This is the reason I love pedal steel guitar.

Awesome.
Wes Montgomery was my intro to jazz and I will always consider him my favorite jazz guitarist.

Thank you one and all for your kind comments. I will be posting a few items on Youtube this year as I will be using it as reference material for Booking Agents.

Crowbear, where abouts in France are you. I will be on the River Charante in May 2011 for a week?.

Regards,
Sez

I have to say Earnest nailed it on the first response. Well done and what an instrument!

Sez....as I've told you many times, you have my full admiration and respect as a musician and steel player. I see you also have gotten the attention of many of my other "usual suspects"...aka my most most esteemed Forum colleagues.

Your music is exactly what I too want to hear coming out of a steel guitar!

Thanks for the lift....

Sez, that is lovely. Thank you for posting it. I will be adding it to the lineup at www.steelguitarjazz.com. Send more!

I look forward to meeting you in Dallas. Wish you could be there in St. Louis this year so we could hear you play at the Jazz Room. Maybe another year? I hope so!

All the best to you and keep up the great playing!
Jim

I'm glad this got bumped! I'm so jealous that I can't come to Dallas to hang out with Sez. Have a great time while visiting the States sir!

Sez, that's great stuff! Did I see some string bending with your left pinky?

Bill Sutton · Post by **Bill Sutton** » 26 Jan 2011 9:03 am

Sez. That was "awesome" I realy like those big chords. A great arrangement...and A great job.

Bill.

Thanks everybody for you kind responses.
Jim - Thanks for including on your Jazz site.
Roger - Yes I do use the LH pinky to push the bottom string up a semitone. Also the Left thumb to 'pick' (or brush) the bottom string and for blocking. It's not just waving around for nothing.
Rick - Thanks again for your support. Pity you can't be at Dallas, but don't forget our date on 'Skype' when you are ready.
I intend putting another tune on the web in a week or so. Quite a tough one - it's fighting back like a Lake Kariba Tigerfish.
Best Regards to all,
Sez

Beautiful!! the words 'mastery of the instrument' certainly apply here.

Nice bow tie too!
