Was that the same artist who recorded a few albums including a track called "I'm Just a Guitar-Everybody Picks on Me"??-- I will get his name tomorrow and post in here....

The technique involved a plastic pipe with amplified sound output through it at one end and the other held in the corner of the mouth at a mike. I think that was the basic idea played on a Steel Guitar....

The name came to me in the early morning hours.....

I hope this is the artist you had in mind....I'm not sure about the Slim Whitman record mentioned by Chris....Perhaps Drake was on the session.

The name came to me just before I got to sleep -Glad to help....I remember at the time being very impressed with this artist -until I found how it was done!
However- I am going to pursue one or two tracks....
