I love the way you play this song, It is my all time favorite of 16 tons. I even like it better than the one with Johnny Cash singing. On another note...I can't believe anyone hit the dislike button of course it was either a very clumsy person or someone with ears that don't function properly. LOL.
I love this arrangement! Dark and moody, as this tune deserves, but with a nice swing and some fantastic tricks. The bit with the trems off, and playing as they're switched, is fantastic - it lends this almost a sinister churchy sound, like some sort of music for a quiet, brooding sermon.
You keep on amazing me with your enormous amount of postings on YouTube. This one brought memories of a 45rpm recording of Tennesee Ernie Ford my mother played along with other songs from the '50s & 60's on her trusty Emerson Phonograph. Dave in PA
Hi from the UK This was one of the first songs I ever played. The only words from the song that spring to mind now are No 9 coal and "a lot of men didn't and a lot of men died", maybe overnight my brain will recover the rest of the words. I loved your organ version. At the moment I am thinking of doing a vid with Organs sounds from my "Yamaha Theatre Organ" I'll try to send it you you for your approval I havn't sent vids before so I may not get thro to you. Hope to hear from you.
I went and listened. Wow. That is some rig. It sounded like a big Robert Morton TPO. I would love to hear more TPO stuff on that. Splendid work, my friend. Thanks for sharing.
Great job, as usual. The general mood reminds me a lot of "Satan Takes a Vacation" I had when I was taking lessons. Curious about that steamy-sounding "hissss" every 10-11 seconds. Part of the effect??
