    I used to do HVAC work with this older dude named Leonard. He loved Ricky Skaggs and we used to listen to a live album of theirs all the time. It was incredible. We were completely different types of people, he was hyper religious and very conservative but we loved to listen to Skaggs.

      The instrumental at 12:15 is actually entitled Crossville. Ricky was traveling up interstate 40 on the bus, getting some ideas for an instrumental. When they came into Crossville Tennessee the tune came to him.
