Highest slide note ever recorded?

[Kirk]

I'm not sure how high Lowell got, but here's a contender for the highest slide note ever recorded. It's on my tune Come a Long Way, which was recorded in 1983 for my album No Apostrophe. It's the last note of the solo.

Well, if you can tell which part is the sax and which is the slide, there are certainly some high registers on "Mercenary Territory" from "Waiting for Columbus".

I can think of hearing some really high stuff on Lowell era live bootlegs. Some "Tripe Face Boogie" renditions reach up there, and there are other songs with Lowell/Paul lead interplay that might also be candidates.

Based on recollection only, my vote goes to Duane Allman's "bird chirps" at the very end of the song, "Layla".

I once ran my slide up the neck of a mandolin and made the dog's ears perk. ;D

Hey Kirk! How's it goin'?!

Hi Kirk ...

Man, do I just love to hear you play brother. Great recording and certainly a very high note. I would have no idea on knowing the highest of anything due to the conflicts the voices in my head getting in the way. hehe

Keep on playing and I'll keep on listening.

best of everything to ya.
