Simple playing....sweet sounds

Ray Montee · From: Portland, Oregon (deceased)

Here is a simple little ditty by a very young Grandpa Jones......... This is the way country sounded (1950's) BEFORE the name was changed to "classic country"......; that was way back in the 1990's, of course.
Of course, it's Jerry Byrd on the electric Hawaiian, laptop steel.....doing the great train whistle sounds as well......(something different here). Some of us are still amazed at the versatility in sound that Jerry was always able to get out of that little old 1930-ish Rickenbacher six string steel guitar and Volu-Tone amp.
You can look for it on Jerry's Music page of the Jerry Byrd Fan Club. Hope you enjoy.

Never heard that before!
Amazing Jerry considering the time frame,,,,
any time frame.
The fiddle player ain't no slouch either.
He sure sends that train along the tracks.
Thanks for making it all possible Ray.
A wonderful thing you are doing.
