TOMAHAWK-Country style

Here we are again.
A great tune written by Mitch Mitchinson. I fancied a more “Country” take on it so here is my version with a brand new BT that I made in BIAB/RealBand. Not a midi or a keyboard in sight. And sometimes you just got to give the Pedal Player his head.
Enjoy!

Great country feel to this one Ian and your guitar tone fits right in with it. :thumbup:

Corrrr blimey that steel player is a busy chap isn't he ! Does he charge much for a session?

Thanks for listening and the kind comments.
Roger - the good news is that the Pedal Player works cheap - I dont even have to buy him Beer!!!

Lovely. I can hear that on a 70s Shads album.
Also reminds me very slightly of The Saturday Western

Love to do that live but we'd need two lead guitars - or a BT I suppose...

No, No Mr Purdon - there is a cunning plan!! Check on Sunday to see if the others are up for it.
(hint - without all the Yee-Hah going on, it really is quite a simple and very Shadowy tune - just drums, bass and rhythm)
cheers

Hi Ian,
What a great sound :thumbup: - Your Strat fitted perfect with the pedal steel guitars.
Smashing country feel to it.
Very well done... Phil

Hi Phil
thanks for listening and the kind words.
This new version of BiaB is great. When that pedal solo came out of BiaB after I had put in the style/player/key/chords etc etc, it blew my mind - it was SO good on the first "Take" that I kept it.
I played this on the neck pickup (on brand new Elixirs) which in hindsight wasnt the best selection but it was fun to do.
cheers
