Request: 'Always Late' intro

Post by b0b »

How do you play the intro lick to Lefty's "Always Late"? I think it's the same as Webb Pierce "There Stands The Glass".

Remembering the timing was always the hardest for me. Sort of a triplet feel.
I think Curly Chalker has been credited on steel with Lefty, 1951 Great stuff :!:

Take it to 1953 in the key of Eb for Webb Pierce's "There Stands The Glass". Sonny Burnett on steel. Don't know what tuning he was using... it's called creative remembering :lol:
