Thanks for the kind remarks. The Wavestation is the top keyboard above the M3 in this video, and it is in fact playing some of the chords you hear, with MIDI control out of the laptop. I have become a bit more cautious with it, as it dumped its memory on me during the last tour, so after replacing the battery I lost some special sounds that I did not have backed up (mea culpa). However it still does certain things that I love, and I like to have it nearby whenever possible.

The studio version has this really cool delayed percussive notey part.

@bissia looks like some kind of a lap slide guitar ... they were (are?) used quite a bit in old 'country' songs (here's a vid watch?v=L_fyOG_kwYc ). I like that Robert Rich plays instruments like this.

Wow, fantastic live performance of that truly classic track, I'm always stunned by the sounds of your lap steel guitar - such an expressive instrument.

Do you still use your Wavestation or have you completely replaced it with the M3 now?

Cheers,

Tobias

may I ask, what is the played instrument just left of the laptop (from his side) ?
