It has been a cool wet spring around me but that is perfect weather for staying inside and working on William's fantastic tabs for this country classic!
He sounds fantastic playing it by the way:

That intro he plays is worth the price of admission alone! |

Always liked the way William played this tune.
And, what tone he is getting out of that Sho~Bud!
Thanks, William! _________________ Twang to the bone! |

I ust watched William play "Statue Of A Fool" and what a heck of a job he did on it, you better tell the club put some more sawdust on the floor when Williams starts cranking it out. Thanks for the good stuff William sure beats the hell of the junk the country stations are spinning now days. |

Yeah I miss William's Sho~Bud days. It's got that whine to it. Well done William!

Thanks Don! I'd like to thank Larry for pointing out the fact that William is playing a Sho-Bud. That is something you don't see every day. |

Oh yeah ! That Sho-Bud belongs to Larry Robbins now. He talked me in to letting him purchase it not long after that video was made.....
Oh and Larry , I'm going to have to have it back.... _________________ William Litaker
