Moon River on the Lap Steel and Sax

Post by Chuck S. Lettes »

After hearing a recent duet version of Moon River, featuring Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton, I wanted to try my own take. I'm using my sax and lap steel for this arrangement. Hope you enjoy the tune, my huckleberry friends.

Great Chuck, I saw Jeff and Eric at Madison Sq Garden during that tour. I remember Eric doing "Moon River' solo, it was amazing.

That year was my 50th birthday and my guitar player friend hosted a surprise party for me at his house, at the end of the night I requested Moon River after having seen Clapton do it and Glenn (Alexander) did a version at 1:30 in the morning and it was just awesome!

Chuck, You always pick great songs to play.

My daughter is up in Denver this weekend with a friend of hers from college, hope you are well!
Regards, Craig

Thanks, Craig. Like you, Jeff Beck was one of my favorites, and I miss him. Always good to see you on the Forum, and hope you are doing well.
