Take Me Home, Country Roads -Lap Steel Guitar-

[@schneidertruckkaluhiokalani]

It just unlocks memories from a time long ago of me and my dad fishing off the tailgate of our pickup truck. R.I.P. Dad 12/25/1954-9/13/2019

@Jordan Rodrigues thank you.

This is why I love all guitars! You can do fingerstyle, percussive, steel guitar, electric, and it's all the same instrument!

[@Lonesomedobro]

Thank You !

[@joshuathomas2012]

You forgot bass.

[@calinguga]

this here is an actual lap steel with 15mm action though

[@derekcosten1136]

Very similar but theres some different tricks to these instruments for sure. If you can play round neck slide though you can probably play lap steel/dobro.

[@joshprovlin368]

Think the dude has a relay loop system, and not actually playing everything at the same time. Simply look at his right hand, visually not seeing any "boom-chick" fingerstyle pucking in the background to his lead slide playing.

[@tallflatlander3493]

This was one of my moms' very favorite songs...so much so that she requested that it be played at her funeral. We did so and sent her lovingly on her way.

[@livingtowork7297]

This song takes me be back to better days. To all those listening I hope you are able remember those precious moments

[@Lonesomedobro]

thanks!

@@Lonesomedobro great job! What tuning did you use?

[@Lonesomedobro]

open D tuning

[@dillonmann6409]

My god this has got to be the best sounding instrument I've heard in a while. I'm not a country fan at all but I respect all music and I know beautiful when I hear it.

I used to play this guitar four years ago.... Thinking of resuming it once again. I miss it. Such a lovely melody it creates and every goddamn song on earth can be played on this particular guitar

[@jb6712]

Fabulous instrumental version of one of my favorite songs. Utterly gorgeous, well executed, and a sheer joy to listen to. Thank you for playing it and for posting your video.

[@Lonesomedobro]

Thank-you!

[@briangisler1981]

I always wondered and was amazed how you can write something so beautiful. But John did! Just amazing!! RIP John.. I grew up with you and can’t wait to meet you in Gods presents.

[@Lonesomedobro]

thanks!

[@JamesWillmus]

He didn't write it alone, but did contribute. Bill Danoff and his wife, Taffy Nivert were the main authors of the song and it took them several months to get a final draft. Denver heard that draft and the three of them spent an entire night changing around the lyrics. Considering Country Roads is rooted in feelings of nostalgia, its actually pretty amazing they were able to condense those complex emotions and memories into a simple song.

[@robokid20001]

I just inherited one of these from my grandfather and man, this video seriously inspires me to get learning. Awesome job!

[@Lonesomedobro]

Thank-you!

[@TheMKEWERBY]

On the "I Belong" portion, it would've sounded good with the "behind the bar bend" technique to mimic a pedal steel, but swell version of this classic!

[@jameskox872]

That is some serious skills . . . There wouldn't be any real country music without steel guitars . . . This is some beautiful and skilled playing . . . I love it .

[@Lonesomedobro]

Thank-you so much!

[@ericbrown9947]

Ohhhh.... thank you so much. there are no words that come to mind to describe the feelings that fill my soul when I listen to your version. to me, that was how the song was suppose to be played. I even think John Denver might agree Thank you so, so much.

Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads Almost heaven, West Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River Life is old there, older than the trees Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads I hear her voice in the mornin' hour, she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin' That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads Take me home, country roads Take me home, country roads

This post is immeasurably helpful to me, and I am grateful. Why? I'm learning lap steel and just hate to use finger picks. Your playing validates the fact that beautiful lap playing can be achieved with bare fingers. Thank you for the great performance!
