Hey Bill, that was great job on the Old Violin. And I looked on down there and played the Berry Pickin song, was particuarly impressed with the tone on that one, loved the whole thing. 
God Bless
Stan

Bill this is also one of my favorites and you did a very fine job on it. Had the pleasure many years ago to sit in a Holiday Inn room after a gig with Johhny and Big Jim and a couple of others passing around a bottle of Black Jack. We had an acoustic guitar and I asked Johnny to sing it. He did and it was as moving as just about anything I've ever heard.

Hey Bill I really enjoyed your version. Very haunting and realistic. And of course Johhny Paycheck has some ties to our area.
Great Job

Thanks for the input. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Its a hard song to sing but I thought I'd give it a try. Your feedback makes me feel better about trying it. It is one of my all time favorites.

Hey Bill, I'll have to give 5 *****'s on that.  
You did a great job on a song that is hard to do.
Missed you at Rend Lake. That was a great show.

Thanks Carl, Unless the economy gets better I'm going to be missing a lot of shows. I plan on going to Mount Vernon. Maybe I'll get to see you there.
