God bless Mr Traum. I got so much mileage out of his Beginners Blues course that I originally bought back in 1984 on audio tapes while serving in the USAF down in Texas. Brownie's style is so clear and defines the Blues with an approach that is as good and easy as Cake and Coffee. Thanks for sharing. Happy Holidays. Enjoy.
@dealer205 I would agree if you take into account: perspective - including 75 years to sweeten; top of the line guitar and recording equipment; the white musician is singing the polished song, and not living the poor discriminated black experience the song actually represents. Oh ya, no problem. I like Happy's version cause I'm being here now - that being a cozy living room with my laptop playing me the YouTube experience. Ya, no problem.
Hats off to Happy because I learned to fingerpick from his Oak Publications book. Once I figured out Freight Train I was on my way and never looked back.
A great version
thanks

Just wonderful! I have been a huge HT fan since 1979! Good to see his voice is still as solid and 'real' as it was all those years ago!

I'd love an entire DVD/CD of Happy's performances with just him and his guitar! Priceless!
