Yes it's not an easy task. I struggled with mine for a long time and if you don't play it everyday it feels awkward, well to me anyway. You've done a pretty good job here--that lick at around 1:25--cool! Nice tone on the dobro.

I think you've done a fine job with the dobro here! As Mach said, it's not an easy thing to play. The possibility of not being in tune with every note is always present. You've done great with it and the song!

Enjoyed this quite a bit. Never came to grips with any sort of slide, so my hat is off to you.

Really like the sparse instrumentation.

Cool slide playing, im getting a bit of hiss on the recording,don't know if it's the device I'm listening on.
Great playing regardless.

thank you all the guys

Kenny Mac:no hiss  it seems ...may be the games of battery with brush give this effect?
Yes it is very difficult to play a melody on dobro because of the problem just tone and especially interference during the relaxation of  of the steel bar on the string

 a great master for the fantastic touch inspired me on you tube:

Martin Gross have a fantastic touch and a very beautiful sound in thid record

 ... if you listen to the original confronting the way to go still for my game
