Man, Man, Man! It doesn’t get any better than that!! The Chet Atkins of the Steel Guitar! Talks to my Soul! Thanks Dave, and John Stannard on his old Fender Telecaster. RIP! John, and what a tremendous talent you were! You are missed dearly!!

[@sammoore9120]

I really miss the days when every country band included a pedal steel.

[@DaveLynchJazzGuitar]

Dave, that was really beautiful and wonderful playing ! The sound is excellent!!

[@gabrielsakacs7047]

This may be the most complicated instrument to play in the world...You are a master sir!

[@mwduck]

Playing lead guitar is about hitting the right frets. Playing pedal steel is about hitting the right molecule.

[@deliaramirez9361]

Omg!!! Beautiful. I reminisce dancing to this song at Cowboys on Gaston Ave in Dallas! Love this song, so beautiful!

[@truelight.parsoncharlie]

David this rendition of Apartment #9 is absolutely exquisite! I have listened to your music for years, and for me, I believe the thing that sets you apart from other pedal steel players, is your musical phrasing, it is absolutely brilliant!!! Cheers from Colorado.

[@charlesarnold8337]

Another beautiful song by Dave!!

[@michaeljackson3956]

I have always had the desire to learn this instrument, but other things always came up. Now I'm 75 with all this time on my hands. If only we could see the future.

[@vikingmike8139]

Mannnn! The tone of that steel guitar brings me almost to tears of joy. Unbelievable country licks! From my viewpoint, as a hard-rock guitar player, I garner the standard fundamentals of pedal steel guitar licks and incorporate them into my own playing style. There is another guy that is well known that also does the same thing. His name is Zakk Wylde.

[@johnr.prather2876]

Dave Hartley, one of the best pedal steel players I've ever heard. Tied with Paul Franklin then Sarah Jory third. Dave is just pure beauty. Franklin is a technical wizard and Jory just Rocks. She picks like lightning and throws the steel around like it's a Frisbee .

[@ronniekelly789]

Don't forget John Hughey.

[@tonyleeglenn]

As always, splendid, flawless playing. Dave - you make me love and long for more REAL county music. Thanks for sharing this my friend.

Dave's music in one word......... "BEAUTIFUL"

[@superorangeish]

The overhead helps figure how David does certain riffs ..but man, playing like him doesn't come easy..if ever!

[@cadjunk]

I love this song by Tammy Wynette. So beautiful on the steel guitar. Absolutely love it. Thanks so much for sharing. Take care. Gwen

[@jacobbelcher3512]

I absolutely love the way you play this beautiful instrument. I love the way the steel guitar sounds, it is such a unique sound. And I really like the way that you put the whole thing together by having the accompaniment. I like the version Tammy Wynnette recorded and your version equally. Actually the same goes for all your recordings. They are so well done that I sometimes just listen to them for hours. Thank you for this beautiful recording.

[@darrellbroome371]

I just came a crossed your music ,I love it dearly it really takes me back to the good old days

[@valdo1194]

Pure Country! beautiful

[@hadara69]

Love Tammy! Love playing slide myself. This was dope. Cheers!

[@darrenhillman8396]

My Dad, who passed away last September, was a huge Country fan and loved the sound of pedal steel - so I grew up listening to the likes of Lloyd Green, Pete Drake and Buddy Emmons, etc.. In my opinion, the tone and depth of the sound you create from your expert playing of these wonderful instruments easily surpasses their playing. I'm no expert, but I guess some of that has to be down to newer technology in terms of instrument design, pickups, amps and that sort of thing, but it's the player that puts the heart into it as well. You are an inspiration to me - I intend to learn to play one, one day..!
