    You must have spent hours and hours listening to Santo and Johnny's original as I could not detect one note omitted. I learned this song in 1965 on an acoustic guitar but I know I could never hit all the notes like you did. Nothing like a steel guitar. Congratulations on your talent. Keep on sharing your music as you are really good. I have a good ear for music but I cannot read a note of music. I have done solo gigs when I was in my 40's. It was one of the greatest times of my life and I was broke.

      Thanks for listening, John! Yes, I grew up hearing Sleep Walk on the radio, and it was the first song I learned to play on steel guitar, 50 years ago! I played pedal steel guitar with country and rock bands through the 70s, 80s, 90s. Nowadays I play about four gigs a month... that is, before the virus hit!

They had a steel player that did a tolerable job and everybody appreciated it. A classic tune that nobody plays anymore. Also sadly

    you brought me back to my childhood, i heard this song playing in my grandfathers garage all the time on his old timey radio... we'd play eye spy as he worked on cars and motorcycles, and chill out on the hill in our front lawn.. i wish i could have it back, but all those memories are more than enough and its the best things i've got.. thank you

      Very nicely played.
      I just have one question. Why not answer directly to Glenda’s comment?
