Slow Road - The Endless Potential of the Pedal Steel Guitar

 

This mix is pretty much what the title says - a collection of quiet/ambient tracks featuring the beautiful sounds of the pedal steel guitar.

I did another pedal steel mix two years and since then it seems to be easier to find practitioners of the ambient steel guitar sound. Only one artist, Chuck Johnson, is repeated from that mix in this one. Here's the first mix:  http://lowlightmixes.blogspot.com/2019/09/ambient-twang.html

All that's left to say is go relax with some steel guitar & maybe a good bourbon around a campfire.

Cheers!

Nicely done - also love the Ambient Twang mix from 2019 as well.

This mix didn't do particularly well on Mixcloud so I'm glad that some folks, like yourself, liked it. Cheers!
