Legends of Steel Guitar - Part 1

Музыка

It has been years in the thinking stage and this video is an important part in spreading the gospel of the steel guitar. You will be able to learn more about the players both personally and professionally and see them (as well as hear them) in a relaxed atmosphere as they sit around and shoot the breeze with each other. This is a dream come true! Learn about four of our favorite players and hear some of their most famous licks. They have lots to say about their careers ups and downs. Funny anecdotes and some hear breaking climbs to the top.

    Rex Endecott was my grandfather, I didn't get a chance to know him before he passed. He was one of the pioneers of the still guitar. Don't let the Steel Guitar fade away.

    I'm 29 years old and I'll never stop playing mine... I've got a lap steel now with palm benders. But I'm saving up for a pedal. It's the only sound that can make me cry

    I am a multi instrumentalist, my main axe being the sax, and I've recently fallen for the great versitility and beauty of the steel guitar. When I saw these vids, and found out that a few of you guys are from my hometown of Louisville! That was it, I was hooked!! Thank you so much for sharing your stories and sounds!

    Steel Guitar- My very favorite instrument on the face of this planet! Great to see ol' Jim Vest. I could only ever dream of living a life like this man has had, he has played for George Jones, Paycheck, Waylon and probably a ton more that I don't even know about. I love this video- thanks for sharing it!!!
