Oh my gosh I’m melting, this has to be THE most pristine playing of Sleepwalk that I’ve ever heard. I’ve loved this song since I was a kid.
Thanks for listening! I’m glad you like it. 🤗
Mastapeeece

Certainly brought back memories as a kid, captured the feelings I had back then. Thanks.
Not possible to play better than this
I was sixteen years when this came out. Still really cool after sixty years.
Thanks for listening! 😁
Wow.. a lifetime
Very cool 😎

Cool Gary Conway. Thanks for commenting.
A young boy of seventeen, listening for hours, with a very special girl, tonight fifty seven years later she sets across from me, still very special, she is my heart.
Very well said, Hugh. Thanks for watching the video! 😊👍
💘
Wow. That’s beautiful man.
I’ve never cried like that from a comment before. So beautiful
No exaggeration this is in fact the best version of this song in RUclips.
Thanks! Glad you like it 😎
yes it is i play it over and over for hours. I love steel guitars.
Be fair, go back and listen to Santos one more time
it’s like the good ending to a video game, all your friends have passed, the world is an inhabitable and hostile post-apocalyptic scene, but you feel happiness as you succumb to radioactive fallout.
I'm now 78 and this song is and will always be my favorite. I still have tears in my eyes. Thank you sir!!!
So glad you like it! 😊
Me too. Im 80
Masters, no matter what they do, always make it look easy.
😊😊👍
That is right true.
Thank You. Esa
Indeed
RodCornholio nah bro that looks hard asf

Thanks for checking it out! 😎
Didn’t expect to see you here lol
bakerXderek CHEAH👌🏼
Im not gonna lie, i wasn't expecting THE bakerxderek to be watchin somethin like this. love your stuff man. and yeah, super clean
How many damn youtube videos do you watch!?!?
I don't know anyone who would not get emotional of this haunting melody. Just loving it.
😊😊👍
If I close my eyes, I can see my Dad playing this song on the pedal steel. It moves me to tears when I hear you play.
Wow, I’m glad the song brings back fond memories for you.
👍👍👍👍👍
Santos and Johnny……Sleepwalk….what a classic sound, it’s a shame no one creates that kind of music any more. This was done superbly!!
Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. 😊🙏👍
Now its just garbage music singing about booty, drugs, and money. I wish I was born earlier.
It's called sleepwalk because the song came to one of them in a dream. Woke up shortly after, wrote down the notes and composed the song the following day.
@@aztharz5637 i love music about booty drugs and money
@@aztharz5637 because you don’t explore different music besides from whats on the radio mate
Born in 1954 I first heard this as a youngster. To this day the best music ever. Never fails to bring me to tears of joy.
One of my childhood favorites too! 😊
Born the same year and loved the same song 🎵
Also a '54 baby. Didn't come to appreciate this music till later in life. High-school was Led Zeppelin for me.😂
1954 here too. This song brings back melancholy memories even though I was still a young child when it came out. Also, it makes me a little sad after watching La Bamba and realizing this selection was played at his funeral.
There’s something pleasantly haunting about this song, yet very melancholic at the same time. This kind of melody only comes around once in a lifetime and you recreated the perfect rendition….Awesome Job!
Thanks for listening!
Worked really well in The Irishman
Awesome thanks ❤
“RITCHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!”
To oon
@Perry Ellis movie. Sad one.
@Perry Ellis"La Bamba" based of a true story. Very sad in a realistic way.

I been watching this video over and over again for so many years just never commented, this video just melts me lol, i keep coming back! Its too soothing
Thanks for watching, Ken. I’m glad you like the video 😊👍
Been listening to this on repeat for the last 40 minutes, incredible.
Wow! Thanks for listening. Glad you like it.
I love this too! How do you put it on repeat?
@@nancylovell7258 If you’re on pc right click when the video is playing and click “loop”
If you’re on mobile there should be either three dots or a cog in the top right corner of the video, press that and turn on “play video in loop”

This is the best cover of sleepwalk I've seen
Thanks for checking it out! 😎
I second that!
You've obviously never seen any of the numerous death core/Irish reel versions of...

i do think so
i'm telling y'all this is the best version, crying right now 😢❤
Aww, thanks! Glad you like it 😎👍
A boy born in the early 00s with a passion for 50’s music. This is honestly beautiful.
So glad you like it! Thanks 😊

This was my grandpas favorite song, he died a few days ago. Every time i hear this song i get emotional now, thank you for this
Sorry for your loss. Thank you for listening. 😊
Finally I found someone that plays the song as is. Everyone plays this song with his 'genius' style just because can not touch the original.
Thanks! Yes, the original is plain and simple, but very well played. A lot of steel guitarists today add in a bunch of fills and licks that were not in the original recording.
this has always been on my mind.. like THE EXACT SAME IDEA!!
Yes indeed
Simple will always be better 👍
I only love the originals. I don't like the personal touch of diverse players.
I miss my childhood. This really takes me back! Times were simpler, people were real, music was music.
Santo & Johnny would give you a deep bow! Beautiful, brother, beautiful.
Thanks! Glad you dig it 😎
0:08 that sound tho😍
Righttttt
Though what?
0:39
Ikr?
I mean it’s good but I feel like he holds the high note a tiny bit too long
Such a haunting...never to be forgotten melody!
😎🙏👍
they don't make music like this any more
Nothing soothes my soul like listening to this masterpiece.
Glad you like it! 😊
This song was before my time but is one of my favorites, and this has to be the best cover of it I've ever heard.
Thanks for listening! Glad you like it 😎
Sleepwalk alone is so beautiful but this version brought tears to my eyes. Why did I get this recommended to me two years later???
😎🙏🏻👍
My Uncle played this song on his steel guitar. Miss him and his music.
Thanks for listening! I'm glad it brings back fond memories for you. 😊
JM yes sir my stepfarther did too also' R.I.P. MR. Ronnie Lane..
Hearing this and perfidia brought back memories of my youngr days, I'll be 77 next month so i remember them being in the charts.
I’m glad the videos bring back memories for you. 😊
Wonderful job of playing that song, so pure, and true. Many slow dances to it. Love that song. Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome!!!!!!!!
Thanx!!!

You said it!!!! Really cool

Glad it brings back fond memories for you! 😎
The shadows walk dont run
Pedro Meza I bet it was awesome
Me too Pedro, not only does it seem like a life time ago, but more like a whole different reality ago. My how things have changed.
I'm a teen in today's days, but i hear you....
Santo and Johnny, this music really takes me back to such good old days. Outstanding job
Thanks! I'm glad you like it.
One tune I can never let go of once I start playing it in my head.... It's like I never want it to end. 🎸🎶
😎😎👍👍
When I was a kid, in the grand old cinemas, before movies were screened, this piece of music was always played against the red velvet screen cover and the yellow lights in the cinema, with the side pillars of the screen, and the grand apollo sun god chariot right on the middle of the screen top... Hmmm.... Seats were old and squeaky, but we can no longer experience this again. Thanks for the memories. Btw, just love your playing style, clean and smooth.
Many thanks, I’m glad the song brings back fond memories for you. 😊
Awesome insight. Thank you.
Doug you the best
Subscribed because this is the best version of this song I've found online.
So clean...
Thanks James, much appreciated.😊
Another one of my favorites made better by you. What an amazing, God given talent!
Wow, thank you!
I was 13 when I first heard this song and I’m 21 now still loving how it sounds. Any song is timeless
😎😎👍👍
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!
It was on the level of the Santo & Johny maybe even better. Some years back I read in a trade magazine an inquiry if anyone knew of their whereabouts
Nailed it man… wow… my Dad has passed away from Covid a week ago & ive been listening to this a lot. This song reminds me of the time I’ve spent with him… he was 50 years young… Rest In Peace Dad, I love you
Wow, I'm so sorry to hear about your dad, Cody. I wish you much peace and comfort, and I'm glad that the music brings back fond memories for you.
Far to young. Sorry
hello sir im sorry about your dad God bless him
Sorry about your loss.
Did he have other health conditions?
RIP to your father, lots of love to your family
Thank you sir for playing this song so perfectly that it's even better than the original❤
I'm glad you like it! 😁
LOVE THIS!!! Reminds me of when I was little, watching mom and dad slow dance in the living room. 😊
My grampa told me to search this song up so I did and we looked at the "real" version but then I saw you playing the steel guitar so I clicked on it and my grampa said this one has better quality:P
Thanks for checking out the video! 😎
Dont be ridiculous
Clint Sherman what? How was that ridiculous
@@hamada3696 u cant beat the original forget about sound quality
Clint Sherman yes Ik, the original was the best, this one he means by sound quality, he never said the original sucked nor did sounded worse
Incredible! I won the original 45 at a street dance in the Summer of 1959. Still love listening to it.
Wow! ...a great memory! I was only 9 years old that year but I heard the song on the radio a lot in the early 60s and beyond. Thanks for checking out the video. 🙂
This has to be the BEST version of sleepwalk, well done!
Thanks! Glad you like it.
Thank you for this,I just miss my grandma while listening to this...She's in a better place now,She will be remembered ❤️😞
Thank you too!
Such a beautiful tune, haunting and mysterious. Hot night, aching for some relief, a cool drink or a breeze.
That's it! Thanks for listening! Glad you like it. 😁
Some days when I’m sick in bed I love listening to this. Thanks for the video this is my favorite tune
Thanks! I'm glad you like it.
and ure my favorite baby😘
gladly.....try stanger on the shore......
Look up the real song it’s great, but this guy did a good job
Even though I wasn’t born in those days i get mix feelings
Some songs are just hauntingly beautiful ❤
😊😊👍
you have no idea how long ive been looking for this one
Glad you found it! Thanks for watching 😎
One of my favorites - sleepwalk...sounds great in steel guitar. Beautifully played. Thankyou for uploading.
Thanks for listening!
Raghu Nandan good to know I'm listening to this beautiful music with tasteful people such as yourself. God bless you brothers and sisters.Peace
What’s the difference between this guitar and a steel electric guitar?
Aardvark 52 the fret board neck is metal not wood
What a wonderful performance.
When I was 18 years old, this song was played while I was driving on the highway crying because of a broken heart.
Thanks for listening! I hope the song doesn’t make you too sad! 😊
Good evening, bed time for me, set repeat, sleepwalk so beautifully played is my night meditation, ty sir 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I have trouble sleeping, I put this beautiful piece on replay and it goes all night, ty Sir for sharing, I’m truly enjoying listening to this golden oldie, ty Sir,,,,,,, oh yes ty for the award lol
😊👍👍
This is the most charming song ever. The guitar tells the whole love story.
😎😎😎
I remember the first time I heard that song as a child and the feeling it gave me. Still till this day hits the same.
Such a dreamy song to listen to.
You play it so amazingly.
Glad you like it, Susan!
Just a beautiful song. Thank you.
Thanks for listening!
This song has very worn out feel to it and it almost feels like I'm coming home from a long day of public transportation when really I just woke up from bed
Interesting. Thanks for listening! 😎
@@dougsteel now that I listen to this as I'm about to fall asleep I realize that this is a good evening song
Nice imagery. I picture it as a last slow dance song to a dying high school prom. Everyone worn out and ready to call it a night
It's funny you say that because I'm in that exact situation right now. I literally just got back from a long day comprised of work, public transport and goddamn Canadian winter weather. I'm exhausted and I was thinking about how calming this song was. The chord progression and melody are fairly typical but it's so effective! Love it!
probably due to the depressing scale this song uses
I love this melody, wow, amazing.
😊😊🙏
Its a quiet August nite 1961 in the TTY shack on Guam. 2 short weeks and I'll be 26, half a world away from home listening to a vinyl of the Ventures, Walk dont run, Sleepwalk,...... Where has the time gone. That was just yesterday and here I am an old man.
I know nothing about the steel guitar or the man playing it but what I do know about is the sound of expertly reproduced music when I hear it and how much time and practice it takes to master an instrument like this. Whoever this guy is he is incredibly good. Thanks for this great video.
Thank you for your kind words, John. I'm the guy! 😊
So beautiful!! The way it cries, whines, sings, is just too beautiful
Glad you like it! 😊👍
I just love it Santo and Johnny should be proud of this gentleman, Blessings
Thanks Allan! 😊
Allans seem to have a good taste in music!
The best version I have heard.
Thank you, Walter!
Just beautiful! I’ve always loved the sound of a Steel guitar and you nailed It!
Thank you! Glad you like it. 😊
my dad passed in 2001 and this was his fav song..TY so much :)
I'm glad it brings back memories of your dad. 😊
God rest him man, hope you are doing well
having your heart broken.. and listening to this.. its indescribable
Yea....
get a grip, dope. It's just a female. God.
Exactly!
@UCTrPWfEFHaflSZWrBWnuqYw shhhhhhhh don't take crap from people.
@@Al_Dente-d1p Excuse me, but that Person was not talking to you, and I don’t mean to be rude but it sounds like you need to get a grip. I’m not trying to be hateful, but you can’t just come at people for no reason.
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
That's awesome. Thanks for listening! I'm glad the song brings back fond memories for you.
OMG, this is my all time favorite slow dance song. Brings back great memories.
😊😊👍👍
Oh, my! This was...dreamy!! I was transported to a time when life was so much better. Thanks for the journey my friend!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
I come back here every couple of months and play this song like 10 times. I love it.
Thanks for listening! Glad you like it 👍
Doug,. Really great music,. Now days " music " is mostly crap, sadly. Not like the old days. Heard a band play this at a class reunion of kids that were somewhat younger than me. They had a steel player that did a tolerable job and everybody appreciated it. A classic tune that nobody plays anymore. Also sadly
Just 10?
I’m 28 but I genuinely believe I have an old soul I absolutely love jams like this. And I could only imagine how it would be to have your babe sitting next to you while this song comes on
🙂🙂👍👍
Tears that could wet my pants! I really think this song had the wrong title. It honestly reminds me of a beautiful romantic sunset in Hawaii in the old days before they "Paved Paradise and Put in a Parking Lot". Back in the Don Ho days. My folks bought Don Ho's old Big Island home in Waiakea Uka back in the late 70's and lived in it for several years and I lived on the property. It has been a beautiful life on the east side of the Big Island for 32 years from Cupertino, California or more intimately Monta Vista Plumbing!
that relaxed sit back into the chair at the end of the video just breathes satisfaction. This guy knows he can make good vibes out of his own fingertips.
Yeah! Thanks for listening. Glad you like it. 😎
Doug, I have listened to this probably 50 times since discovering it a few weeks ago. Your style and sound has moved me to tears, and there's nothing that encapsulates life more than this song, and how elegantly you play it. Thank you for this, and thank you for sharing your talent with the world!
Wow, thank you!
Me too. Since I heard it the first time, I was melting. And now I listen to it each single day several times. 😃😃😃 I LOVE IT.
Try with..... Teardrop!!!!... Lovely song
Excellent!
Well stated..
Ty Sir, for playing this beautiful version as my meditation to send me off to sleep. Set on repeat, goodnight 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
As soon as i hear this beautiful piece being played brings a smile to my face, goodnight, set replay, ty Sir 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
😊😊😴😴
the talent that’s been displayed is truly amazing.
Many thanks! much appreciated. 🤗🎅
Gorgeously Played !!
I Fell in Love with that song the moment I first heard it at a very young age !!!
I’m 67 Now and it Still Moves Me like it always Has !!
Beautiful !!!
Thanks Gerry! It's one of my favorites as well. Brings back childhood memories.
I couldn't remember name of this tune but it always played on the local country/western radio station in the 60s and 70s. Was just lucky to find your cover of it, gotta say you nailed it and of course Thanks for sharing your Talent with us and bringing some very distant memories back to me of my Family and Friends.
I’m glad you found it. Thanks for listening! 😎
Great playing. It always reminds me of the last scene of 'La Bamba', where it turns out that Ritchie Valens died in a plane crash.
Thanks! 😁
A classic, yet a fabulous rendition. Perfect touch and tone, tasty and a joy listening to it.
Thanks for keeping sharing these gems
Thanks for listening!
This sounds just like the original, damn
This is truly what feelings sound like….Perfect!
Thank you! So glad you like it.
I absolutely loved this!!! Fantastic playing. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much! Glad you like it.
"Not ritchie,Not my ritchie!".
No no no don't do dat. Not here anyway
Yes I've watched la bamba
Right in the feels😭😭

@greay lwayd I’m only 21 and I get it lol
Out of all the Versions of this beautiful song I believe Your’s is the best. Thank You
Thanks Francis, I’m glad you like it. 😊
Always loved that song. It was so great to slow-dance to.
One of my favorite instrumental songs in the world! You played it perfectly! Thank you! 😊
Wow, thank you! 😎
I hate to sound like that guy but man they really don’t make music like this anymore. No song I’ve ever listened to from today’s music has ever given me the amount of chills that I get every time I hear this song. It’s great to see people still paying homage to such a masterpiece. Great job man you couldn’t have done better 👏🏾💯
Thanks Edwin, much appreciated. 😊
Thank you I remember this sound from my sister's rocking out when everyone was gone.
they don't, they make better music
I agree, im not born at the right time 😑
They don't make music like this now cause they already made this song.
This song is like a lot of good others, that we honestly can call them as *popular MUSIC.*
That's pure feelings.
Excellent tribute to Santo and Johnny, wish they could hear
this! Thanks, Doug, for sharing
this!
Thank you too! 😊
One word 'FANTASTIC'!!!!
Thanks Susan!
Doug; you are THE Master of the steel guitar and as such I could (and many times do) listen to you play on these RUclips Vids for hours at a time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful, yet so humble, talent with the thousands of your fans across our nation!
Thank you for your kind words, Tim. Much appreciated 😊
Awesome doesn’t even touch the extreme quality of this artist! Best ever!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! Much appreciated 😎
This was masterfully done and I can only imagine how great it would sound with some real drums and a guitar to accompany it.
I know what you mean. I've been making better backing tracks in the last couple of years, better drum sounds and better mixes. I often think about re-doing or remixing this and a few other of my older videos... but when a video has over 5 million view and 99% Likes, it should probably be left alone! 😂😊
THANK YOU!!! MAKES ME THINK OF MY BROTHER WHO LOVED THIS SONG. I REMEMBER THIS BY SANTO & JOHNNY. STILL LOVE IT. I AM 72 AND MAKES ME SAD NOW AS MY BIG BROTHER IS NOT WELL AND HAS NOT LONG WITH THIS WORLD
lOVE YOU SMOKIE
So glad you like it! Thanks for listening.
