Taking The Mooney Challenge

Описание: Here is by far the most challenging piece of music that I have ever attempted to play on the pedal steel guitar. My friend Mike Headrick wrote this song twenty three years ago and released it along with steel guitar tablature. It's a compilation of every Ralph Mooney steel guitar lick that he had every learned and decided to wrap it all up into one song. He promoted it as "The Mooney Challenge" and it's not for the timid, this takes hours upon hours of perseverance. Being a little obsessive, I decided to learn it and send it in. After nearly a quarter of a century, it turns out that I am the only person to have ever taken him up on this offer. So,I was pretty excited and wanted to know what the prize was, he said "the offer expired five years ago when the government stepped in and said the amount of money bordered on being illegal but I could share it on Facebook without copyright infringements and he might find a certificate of completion somewhere in his recording studio". 😂
I hope you enjoy this song, it's five minutes long and a non stop ride of finger picking that will get your heart racing... if you're trying to play it. 🤣🎶❤️


If you want to learn how to play this, the tablature is available at www.MikeHeadrick.com under tablature, look for the MoonBeams series#1
