Slanting the bar, slanting the slide

[Darryl Hattenhauer]

Do any slide guitarists slant the slide the way this steeler slants the bar? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnHL4R6bmOQ

(Caution New Zealanders: Don't watch this unless the syrup of ipecac ain't working.)

Thank goodness that I watched this before I had my evening meal !

And, I found out on Google that the Sirrup of Ipecac is not some eastern potentate, as I'd always believed.

This steeler, Rick Alexander, 1) was one mean bad don't-mess-with-him son of a bitch who made Chuck Berry look like a pansy, and 2) played a Guild X-500.

At any rate, I can't recall seeing any slide guitarists slanting like that. Have you seen slide played that way? Somebody must be doing it.

Some day I'm getting one of those old Fenders.

Go to about 6:00 for about 2 minutes of the slant technique. (Jeez, it sounds good!)

A quad neck Fender would make even Coastie fall in love.

I was once in love with Annette Funicello, until I learned those ears weren't her own.
