Hi Dave, Thanks for sharing this. I really enjoyed singing to it!!! Excellent work man. Gosh I miss real country music like this! - Thanks - Ricky :-)
Brings a tear to my eye everytime i hear this. This is REAL music, and thats coming from a 17 year old. Wish more people my age would listen to this kinda stuff. It'd be good for them.
Just enjoyed your beautiful performance live on the pedalsteel. I just uploaded my cover of the same song of Merle Haggard and while checking my upload, I found your channel. Man, am I glad that I found you! I just love the pedalsteel and certainly the way you play it. I’ll be back for more of your treats.
I wish to thank you all for your comments to my youtube broadcasts. It is very much appreciated. I do try and contact you all personally if there's any questions that I have been asked, and I also make note of all your requests too. I have some great ideas for future videos and I will try and play some of your requests also.
I have always wanted to learn to play the "steel". I could listen to Dave all day. This man is one of a kind. You Go Dave. This is a God given talent.
It blow´s my mind, how I wish to learn to play this instrument, but in my country don´t exist any pedal steel or even country music, what a shame. F... Portugal.
Dave you are just awesome!!! You fill my home in New Zealand with the greatest of listening pleasure!! I get lost in your music when I should be doing other things but wow it is so worth it!! I just luv ya!!
You need to stop posting, your making me wish I didn't sell my pedal steel....LOL.. Really ya sound great, keep it up. When I was still gigging I hired a good steel player and sold mine and just played guitar, now I want one again....
Loved the pedal steel for longer than I can remember. Hearing you on You-tube reminds me why. What a wonderful instrument when in the hands of a master.
you just brought a tear to my eye my friend . You really made that steel talk . This was one of my father-in -laws favorite songs . I can remember him playing it on his steel . Thanks for bringing back the memories . 5 stars
Dave : you're a man after my own heart; the Hag was one of my idols when I was picking actively when that song was a big hit for him ; you bring it to life as a steel guitar instumental. Grand job, Dave.. Bernie
Damn, David.. you play the steel much? lol, you are by far the best I've ever heard. Thumbs up!

Wow. Just wow! Dave, your tone and technique are completely flawless. An amazing performance of this great Merle Haggard classic.
You might need to slack up a little bit though... you're making steel player's like me look bad! :-)
