Pedal steel by Ray Hill

I have just enjoyed watching this (again) - on you-tube "Ray Hill plays seven come eleven" - and I think he deserves a wider audience for this, whether you know Ray or not, it's a great bit of playing, very well recorded.

That was great, I'm a great lover of pedal steel. Sarah Jory imho, ranks up there with the greats of pedal steel and she's a Brit. :)

David Hartley and John Stannard. Both English guys and superb musicians. Well worth a watch for anyone who likes pedal steel and super Tele playing.

Great playing (check out also Spencer Scott of this parish), but that is NOT Seven Come Eleven.

Seven Come Eleven is a tune co-written by seminal jazz electric guitarist Charlie Christian. It's a 44-bar theme consisting of three 12-bar blues segments and an eight-bar bridge. No part of it revolves around a II-V Nashville-style cadence.

Hi.
Same title but different tune, this was recorded by Tom Brumley of the The Buckaroos in 1967.
Now out at last on Cd Sundazed sc 11115 and on Cd Tom Cattin Toms own cd .
Rolene sells this cd of her late husband, had quite a chat with her over lunch the other year
about life on the road with Buck Owens and The Buckaroos.
Hope this might clear up the song title of what Reg is playing. Where are you Reg?
Spence.
