Steve "Rabbit" Easter

Post by Bent Romnes »

After listening to the Jimmy Fortune song, I had to find out more about Steve and his playing. Well, Steve you got a new fan! Here's a nice tune by him. That push pull sounds terrific!

Bent, You are correct that Steve "sounds terrific", but that's not a Push Pull. Have a close look at 3:10.

Maybe it's a conversion. It is a gospel group. :)

Thanks for the link.

Hey there Eagle Eyes Joey, Of course you're right. Which goes to show, Steve plays so good that he makes the thing sound like a push pull!

Steve has a little Hughey touch on the slow songs. Great guy and player.

I don't know what He's playing through but that is as full as you would want a steel to sound. The boy is smooth, I like what he's doing.
