My Friend Karl Straub had a vision of Monk's "Reflections" as if arranged in Bakersfield, and he asked me to play steel

Reflections

This evergreen composed by Hoagy Carmichael in 1927 needs no introduction. This is my latest interpretation. Steelocaster A6 tuning, all the backing is by Tony Kiek of Sydney. Key of E / F.

Bill Williams' gorgeous arrangement of the Neil Young tune. I got to play steel on this.

"All My Sorrows" was recorded by The Kingston Trio in the late fifties, then later recorded as a vocal by The Shadows, one of their few vocals, The melody is based on a sad Bahamian lullaby and brought to fame, named "All My Trials" with different lyrics, , during the social protest movements of the 1950s by artists like Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, and it was also recorded by Paul and Linda McCartney. Fleetwood Mac guitarist Lindsey Cunningham also did a version of "All My Sorrows". The chord sequence is C - Bb - C - Bb at the intro  followed in the verses by a C - Bb - Am - Dm G7 -C based sequence.

This version features the lead on a Steelocaster lap steel, a MSA pedal steel, and a Charvel Jackson acoustic  lap steel. Strings are from a Roland E-09 sampler. The major rhythm and bass backing is by Charles Campbell. 

All My Sorrows

I was sitting at the steel and got to thinking about my Father-In-Law and best friend Denny Wayne today. I think about at least once a day for some reason...Usually makes me laugh just like he always did. ANYWAY, I started playing around with this with him in mind. He loved gospel music....This is what came out.... RIP DW....
