    A new recording of one of Al’s original tunes, which appeared on an EASTWIND album in the ’70’s.
  6. WHITE RIVER STOMP – 2:57
    A rag-timey swing feel is given to this tune, as remembered being played by Don Messer.
  7. BLUE STEEL – 3:57
    Another of Al’s compositions demonstrating the versatility of Pedal Steel sounds such as Dobro & Fuzz, as well as straight steel.

  9. SLIGHTLY SEA 6TH – 2:25
