The other day I was listening to NPR during an Ira Glass show on couple-relationships, and during the interview they kept playing a really beautiful track that was echoey steel guitar playing slowly to high pitched, reverbed.... um... ahem..'twinkly-synth-washes'... it sounded old maybe, like from the Tomita/Vangelis hey-days, but Ill probably never find out who it was.. Old Fripp, Eno, Fehlman....buhler... buhler.. ??? anyways.. it got me thinking that how badly Id like to make a compliation of good steel-guitar ambient music. I remembered how excited my country-fied friends became when I left my KLF Space record playing or when Id play Gentle Peoples "Relaxation Central". I guess Im looking for suggestions on more steel-guitar type chill-choonz to sneak into the collections of my Junior Brown loving friends. Not to mention itd make a good decompression-disc.
