Synopsis

Product Description
"What Mike did is absolutely brilliant. He has explored the instrument we know and love with all its possible textures, and woven it together into a cohesive whole. And when I listen to it, I'm not thinking, 'Gad! It's West Side Story being played on steel.' I simply play it a lot because I enjoy listening to it."
-Winnie Winston
 

CD Reviews

Pedal Steel Masterpiece
Bob Lee | Cloverdale, CA USA | 11/10/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Through the magic of studio overdubbing, Michael Perlowin has created a masterful work where most of the orchestral parts are played on his pedal steel guitar. Amazon didn't include a track list in their description, so I will add one here:



1. Prologue pt. 1/Jet Song/Prologue pt. 2

2. Somewhere

3. Something's Coming

4. Blues

5. Tonight Tonight

6. The Dance at the Gym:

I: Scherzo

7. II: Mambo

8. III: Cha Cha

9. IV: Jump

10. Maria

11. Officer Krupke

12. America

13. One Hand One Heart

14. The Jets Are Gonna Have Their Way Tonight

15. I Feel Pretty

16. Cool

17. The Rumble

18. A Boy Like That

19. I Have A Love / Finale



This is probably the music that you least expected to hear on a pedal steel, but it works!"
