Скачать или смотреть David Bowie Starman Pedal Steel Guitar Mullen G2

David Bowie's "Starman" was arranged and played on pedal steel guitar without using finger picks. Pedal steel players might like to know that my Mullen G2 SD12 is tuned to extended D9. For effects, I run the Mullen through a Cali76 stacked compressor with some reverb and delay provided by a t.c.electronic M350. Starman is one of my favorite Bowie songs and I've wanted to do a pedal steel arrangement for awhile, so here it is!

According to wikipedia, ""Starman" is a song by English musician David Bowie. It was released on 28 April 1972 by RCA Records as the lead single of his fifth studio album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Co-produced by Ken Scott, Bowie recorded the song on 4 February 1972 at Trident Studios in London with his backing band known as the Spiders from Mars – comprising guitarist Mick Ronson, bassist Trevor Bolder and drummer Mick Woodmansey. The song was a late addition to the album, written as a direct response to RCA's request for a single; it replaced the Chuck Berry cover "Round and Round" on the album. The lyrics describe Ziggy Stardust bringing a message of hope to Earth's youth through the radio, salvation by an alien 'Starman'. The chorus is inspired by "Over the Rainbow", sung by Judy Garland, while other influences include T. Rex and the Supremes."

I hope you enjoy listening to David Bowie's "Starman” on pedal steel guitar as much as I enjoyed recording it!

I have been a musician for nearly 60 years and play a wide variety of instruments besides pedal steel guitar including keyboards, synthesizers, electric and acoustic guitar, drums, bass, loopers and more.
