This was a bluegrass standard in the early 70's . This and Country Roads were a must in any bar band . We played country roads so often that I forgot the words from singing it every day for two years .. All the best , Guy
Guy, What a totally original arrangement. I love your musicianship. I especially liked the part where you substituted higher chord voicings for vocal parts. Great job. Les Jensen
Guy, I've been wanting this song on clawhammer for about a year. Your version's the perfect inspiration to get my rear in gear and give it a good, honest try!
Yep they are mediums . The distance between the two melody fingers (index and middle ) and the thumb is the measurement you have to get used to with each string .. The thumb drives the rhythm forward . All the best , Guy
I remember Manfred Man . What an interesting thought of him playing this song . The text of this song is a bit of an uninformed viewpoint on the relationships between Men and Woman wouldn't you say !! Playing this one out I have had to talk a bit on the change in our thinking about relationships since this song was written !!!! Ah well . Always great to hear from you . Yours Guy
Hey Les, Yes vamping on clawhammer isnt really an option as it is with Up Picking but there are ways of bringing things to a clean halt ! Thanks for noticing . Yours Guy
I havent looked at a tuner in weeks so the banjo may have moved sharper .. Ill go have a look with a tuner at this clip . Thanks for the heads up , Yours Guy
