OK, Today is Pedal Steel Guitar Day

We had such fun and success with the other thread surrounding a cool instrument(B3), I thought I'd try another one with another cool instrument... The Pedal Steel Guitar ...
I love the sound, but must admit I don't know many musicians or groups that showcase them....so I thought we can start sharing again....

Cheers,
Angela

If you guys/gals have never heard Japancakes I urge you to check them out. Fantastic instrumental group from Athens that use pedal steel, drums, cello, keys & guitar to create very soothing tunes. I really can't compare them to anyone offhand. I really like their Belmondo album a lot. They have 2 brand new albums out right now one of which is an entire cover album of My Bloody Valentine's album Loveless. BJ Cole is another killer player. For something WAY off the beaten path I recommend the album he did with electronic weirdo Luke Vibert titled Stop The Panic. Crazy drum 'n' bass/sampledelica with BJ's awesome pedal steel over the top. Sounds like it wouldn't work but it does.
