The Rebirth of Cowpie Records! https://bjcole.co.uk/blogs/journal-memories-stories/posts/the-return-of-cowpie

The original founder is a noted pedal steel guitar player... which leads to a story...

 

"A gift of cattle to the Hawaiian king and Spanish-Mexican cowboys who left their guitars led to the development of the steel guitar—or so the story goes.

 

In the late 1700s, King Kamehameha I was gifted a few cattle—and they flourished. “By the 1830s, the islands were becoming overrun by cattle, so cowboys from Mexico were imported to teach the Hawaiians how to herd cattle,” said Professor Anthony Lis of the South Dakota State University School of Performing Arts.

 

When the cowboys returned home, they left their Spanish-style guitars behind and the Hawaiians then developed their own method of playing the instrument, eventually using a steel bar. “Though it’s never been definitively proven, the story is pretty widely accepted,” said Lis, who is writing a manuscript about some of the early American pioneers who developed and played the pedal steel guitar."

I am convinced that there is a little bit of cow (or cowpie) in many pedal steel guitar performances.

 

Case in point: a song about the Wheel of Life:

It is perhaps a good time to remind ourselves that it was cows and milkmaids that kick started mankind's discovery of the power of vaccination.  For this we should be thankful ....

A cow song from my mis spent youth. I can't believe I still remember all the words to this song. A byproduct of spending too much time in the E-club as a young Marine.

 

 

 

Well Doc, I suppose lots of us have a song like that in our memory banks.

 

For me its this one:

A collaboration between a cattle farmer and a Danish music training program brings regular recitals to pampered livestock.

 

 

It seems they prefer the front row of the barnhall.. And hay instead of ..pop corn.?

 

 

I think they prefer popcorn and different music, more like this:

 

 

There is no accounting for taste.
