The Lap Steel Collection features 14 compositions for hollowneck, electric lap steel and resophonic squareneck Guitars. Playing 'lap style' means playing the acoustic Guitar with the instrument lying horizontally across your legs. In recent years, this style has enjoyed renewed popularity thanks to musicians such as Ben Harper, Bob Brozman, David Lindley, Ed Gerhard and Kelly Joe Phelps. This volume aims to provide a comprehensive, varied collection of songs from different genres with the hope that these can both stimulate interest in this fascinating way playing and expand the repertoire for this unique style.
