Ah, you’re still living up there! And fae Fife. I’m trying to forget about Paisley myself. Not the toun it once was, sadly.
That steel players meet sounds good. But maybe not if they’re all playing at once..
Do you by any chance know Freddy Mail (spelling?), who used to work in McCormacks waay back in the day? He was a fine guitar player who switched to pedal steel. I think he was in a band called Nickelson.
I agree about Walter Becker and sticking to bass, his soling in SD got old very quickly. Shame.
I'm getting into looping, hence my interest in bass to MIDI. Got a solo gig coming up and I’m nervous about sounding one dimensional using just bass! But guitar sounds so weedy to my ears now. Back to the woodshed!
