Yep, Great number. I played this version to death back in the 1970s.

Nice, Nate! The Rollins record is a classic. Bill Frisell does some amazing things with folk material. You're right - there's so much more material out there appropriate to steel guitar than Steel Guitar Rag and Sleep Walk ad infinitum.

| Nice job on a fun song, Nate. I'll look to borrow some ideas from your arrangement. We do it in the same key with the same chord progression. (I'm playing G13 on 8 str. dobro.) The lyrics always get a few laughs from the audience. And how many bluegrass bands cover a Johnny Mercer/Bing Crosby tune? |
