He had the best cleanest thumb while being percussive than anyone in the world. This is fabulous performance and arrangement. It does not use the song to showcase virtuosity. It renders to the song. Every note is understandable and perfect. He was also nice.
And them swinging' cats MOHT & KARM were having a ball .... this is a great version of a great tune . When I was 13 I played it on my Kay in our band The Islanders back in 1961
Absolutely beautiful Thom your truly amazing thanks for the video it made me think of my dad and i appreciate the great tribute to Hank one of my all time favorites. God bless
Very tasteful rendition of this standard. @ Thom: Your DNA may have had something to do with your dexterity and musicality - but whatever it was, you took it and ran with it! You could certainly have chosen an easier walk of life, but you're most definietly your own man. You're a stellar musician!
Thom plays in the style which we know so well... We all have Chet to thank for his unique music which influenced so many to take up the guitar! Clive Davies
Dr. Thom, I cannot remain silent any longer. Dragging my lead feet, you moved me to make a nut of myself and shower you with thanks for the very real effort you go to and choosing a keyboards guy with REAL taste also. Dr. Thom, it cost me my coool... but I couldn't help it. Great! TG
stumbled on to this video, im from england and had,nt heard of tom bresh and mark t jordan. dont know what ive been missing. excellent video , away to find out more about this duo , fantastic playing and a great tribute to their friend.
Lovely tune and great picking on a wonderful guitar. I guess world best players live in Nashville. I'm honored to know a few personal. Love you Bresh. Casper
just gets better the more you listen and get what the guys are doing !!!!!! awesome !!!!!! where's the drummer !! ha !! would have been nice to see him kickin them through, !! lovely lovely tune played beautifully !! thankyou so much, andiet.
mighty fine, fellas! Is that Mark the same fella who wrote Bonnie Raitt's rendition of "Two Lives". Will be looking at BMI/ASCAP for other tunes.....I'm a songwriter and I appreciate other fine songwriters and Mark T. Jordan IS one, for sure. Mighty fine guitar picking by Thom, must mention. Thanks, guys!
+Ed Clark Hi Ed - yes, it's me. Thanks for putting that together and for the kind words. I had the pleasure of meeting Thom when I worked on the first of three CDs by Hank and we've been friends ever since. This was Hank's favorite song. He was a pioneer and a true gentleman, always.
This is inspiring! I am just learning this track on guitar with a friend on piano and entering the world of the thumbpick! Loving the original by isham jones too which I discovered through Merle Travis. Thank you for uploading this
I really liked it. You sounded like how Chet Atkins would played it. It's just so boom-chic rather than thud-wenk like Merle Travis sounded to me. He seemed to brush more strings in the middle to my ear.
Hello Thom, I learned this song in your video "the real guitar of Merle Travis", it's on my profile, I hope you like it ^^ Great to see you on youtube !! What a beautiful tune with a piano !!
❤❤ Just beautiful

My classic
We're golden years back then when we had the best artist
And stars

Thank you..
I use Medium gauge nickel, wound. John Pearce, D'Addario, D'Angelico etc.
I really liked it. You sounded like how Chet Atkins would played it. It's just so boom-chic rather than thud-wenk like Merle Travis sounded to me. He seemed to brush more strings in the middle to my ear.
OH BOY YOURS IS MY FAVORITE !! THANKS A LOT FOR POSTING
Wonderful
ultima prima Thom
Is this the same Mark Jordan that played the keys on Feelin' Alright with Dave Mason at the Troubadour in the early 70's?
Yes it is. He played on Dave Mason's 1972 album "Headkeeper"
