Muy buena musica que muy pocos podemos disfrutarla no dejen de transmitir esa buena musica gracias

I was raised with my dad played a steel and lead electric. That was back in the late 60 and early 7p. He played with Lester Flatts and Earle Scruggs a couple time in jam sessions. Beautiful memories

[@karenmcbride1264]

Wow...that is a great memory! It has been awhile since i have heard scruggs name! Anything with music rocks!

[@johndortch1005]

A favorite from one of my favorite country music singers, Billie Jo Spears. How I miss this music today. Thanks Dave. You are the BEST!

[@gigih.hammer306]

This gives me goosebumps. My husband was a fanatic for steel guitar. He is gone now, fought bravely against his cancer. He went to every steel guitar convention in Dallas, brought back many CD, and played them for me. It made me melt.

[@morgan79347]

Sorry for your loss. I love steel guitar I'm going to make my own steel trying to decide how many strings.

[@gigih.hammer306]

@@morgan79347 Thank you. My husband loves steel guitar so much, he actually wanted to learn how to play this awesome sounding instrument. He bought a used one and set it up in our big front room. After having to listen to his attempt of how to play it, it drove me crazy. Told him I couldn't stand it and he needed to set up outside in a shed. It never came to that, because of how sick he got from his cancer. After he died, I wanted to throw it out. My daughter wanted it and she keep's that old thing in our bar. It just sits there collecting dust. I wish you the best with your steel guitar.

[@ВладимирИльин-о4к]

@@morgan79347 This is really a problem: how many strings and what will be the instrument's tuning, and even in what place to mute them. I can only tell you that the slider should have a maximum mass, low frequencies will depend on this (recommended lead-filled construction in a thin-walled brass tube) and additionally, you need to study the system of the Russian seven-string guitar, as it is more suitable for playing in minor harmonies. This will make it easier for you to play in modern fashion styles.

[@wreckum56]

I’m sorry my father also played the steel and also died from cancer,he was a good dad.

Thanks Mr. Hartley for the wonderful music from two Canadian fans. Regards, Bob & Linda, Ontario Canada

I had one Bel Air 289cu. In. When I got married 51 yrs ago but I’d rather of had this music then. Love it!🇨🇦

[@anthonydeleeuw]

I just bought my first pedal steel guitar and listening to this will keep me excited and hopefully not lose my modivation to keep practise, practise,practise.

[@Lysaa62]

C'est toujours une merveille d'écouter Dave à la pedal steel. C'est admirable aussi qu'il montre ce qu'il fait. Dave est un grand musicien et un pédagogue.

This is written in french!

[@Lysaa62]

@@karenmcbride1264 Indeed, I am french, and I play guitar, mandolin and pedal steel guitar ; bluegrass and country music.

[@karenmcbride1264]

@@Lysaa62 My maternal Grandfather was from France. He died before i was born but my mother was very French. She was his 13 child and apparently a favorite. Tiny at 4'10" she was beautiful had a lovely voice. Sounded like Judy Garland. Everyone called her prissy! Anyway, we learned french also thru her. My daughter took 4 years of french in high school and Japanese as electives in secondary. I am retired now and have enjoyed the Steel Guitar playing i have heard recently. I am going to try and find one and learn to play. We have in the past had a mandolin but that was my daughters. I do play C Harmonica and flute and pan not very good. We, daughter usually find instruments in Tennessee. I am very impressed with your portfolio. You must be very knowledgeable . Thank you for replying.🌞

Thank you David. I miss you.

[@karenmcbride1264]

Very nice! Thanks

[@FirstAmendmentNow]

Dave I travel a lot as a freelancer. And those long miles sure do seem pleasurable when I punch up KZbin on my phone and play your steel guitar music through my car stereo. It is so relaxing. Thank you so much for your gift to the world.

[@donoriley7411]

Dave, when I need to relax, I pull you up on youtube with my laptop, plug in my ear buds so that I can get every bit of the stereo sound, and just kick back and listen. I've heard a lot of steel guitar, but in my book you are the BEST!!!! Thanks so much for posting your music on youtube!! I LOVE IT!!!!

[@monkeyhanger1951]

I used to go to a pub called The Woodcutter in Hartlepool to watch a band called The Hawiian Serenaders, could listen to the Hawiian Guitar all day, I just love the sound, wish I had one, wish I could play one :)

Thank you Dave for your beautiful playing love steel guitar it is not country if there is no steel.

[@АлексусГрафоман]

Дуже гарний гармонічний звук, цікава гра. Колись у мене була схожа гітара. Але не знав як на ній грати, навіть не знав, що потрібна металева плашка для цього. Подарив в одну музикальну групку до ДК. Якби в той час був би інтернет з ютюбом, то навчився хочь для себе трохи звуки створювати) Лайк.

Its sooo good. David Hartley is a very great player. I know I have been a fan to steelguitarmusic for so long, 40 years.

For once I'm glad I'm not younger at least I have an excuse for not being able to keep up with you it's called old age. I wish you the best in your life. Oh and keep posting your videos they help keep my heart young. I wish you the best of luck & i hope you keep playing. Your talent is to rare to keep to your self.

Que dulce es el "pedal steel guitar", encaja como un guante en el country. Si tuviera la oportunidad intentaría aprender a tocarlo. How sweet the "pedal steel guitar" fits like a glove in the country music. If given the opportunity try to learn to play.

[@donframeli9855]

Fine picking sounds like trucking

Fantabulous and that is not even a word...... Amazing!

[@looniethemoonie5353]

I have probably listened to this 15 times since yesterday lol. I play guitar and bass but would love to learn pedal steel. Plus a 57 Chevy has been one of my dream cars since I was 5 or 6...... someday...

[@UncleBubbles94]

This is absolutely amazing. I've heard some bands with a lot of steel guitar, and thought they were decent, but this, this is just pure amazing. Its hard to put into words. Cheers from Canada!

Brilliant mate what a gift.......I cant play any instruments but I have tuned up "Many a Chevy" Thanks for posting

[@pharmerdavid1432]

After having just watched a few Buddy Emmons videos, I seem to like David Hartley's playing even more. He took it a bit further, and was even more musically BRILLIANT. I still love Buddy Emmons's playing though, especially my recordings of him with Lenny Breau, but David Hartley was not just a great pedal steel guitar player, but also a great MUSICIAN. He was a Maestro who can never be replaced. He caught my heart with the sound of his pedal steel guitar playing the first time I heard it (just this year), and will likely never let go...~!

[@bigtiny3857]

Awesome. Thanks for posting this one.

[@larrycolling3460]

Dave plays so effortlessly. The irony of doing something difficult and doing it well is that it looks easy. Dave definitely fits that description. I'd love to hear him and Scotty Anderson play this song as a duo.

[@SparkyGoldsmith]

Wow, David, as a fellow guitar player, there are certain things that are hard to watch, because you know you'll never be that good no matter how badly you want it. This video is one of those times. The licks just go and go. Amazing. I loved it!!

[@USMC_BABE38]

SparkyGoldsmith I love this song

[@stuartibanez]

Its a hard instrument , but very rewarding. Im still learning my self , however there is great help available within the pedal steel community , people went out there way to help me and teach me when I first got a hold of my pedal steel. The hardest thing for me was finding a decent Pedal steel .

@@countryboy6065.... a "283 power pack".... with a "3 on the tree" plus overdrive.. they never sold too many with that set up. I've owned several 5-7's - two with 4 spds, and one with "built" glide. I built a "301" for one of them (283 with a 327 crank), a 283 "fuelie" in one, and a 30 over 250 inline 6 (255ci) with an Isky cam & springs, dual 425 cfm square bore Holleys on a Clifford Research manifold, ported & polished head, 11.1 cr, Scintilla Vertex magneto and Hedman Headers backed up with the "built" Powerglide & 4.11 gears.... shut down a lot of small blocks with it, to!! I've only seen one 57 with the 3 spd+overdrive... they're pretty rare. Cruisin with a babe sitting right beside me and "Doo Wop" on the radio!!!....
