    You seem like a really good guy (like popcorn) Your guitar playing is teriffic and reminds me of  a lot of Woody Guthrie's style. God bless you and RIP Popcorn, you were the last of a breed.

  • I agree with you fully. Popcorn never hurt anyone.

  • Pickers like you sir are the few who keep my faith in the American music alive. Now days it's all about who can be the most liberal in their music, but you instead pay tribute to a dying breed of American originals, and I thank you.

  • yeah popcorn got fucked stright out of the barrel ....good song man

  • you got to know the legend. wow ! your song is amazing your picking is perfect. tell me some stories of the old man please..........

  • I first met Mr. Sutton at the Museum of Appalachia and got aquainted with him. I performed several times at the cabin porch as he was building the moonshine still. He enjoyed my old time mountain tunes as well as some of the old gospel favorites I played. I was honored to play for him several times over the course of the two years I knew him. The last time he was there he left me a pint of his best and I still have it and will keep it in his memory. He was a master of what he done.

  • thanks for your story and your song now send me that likker please hahahahahaha......

  • Thank you for doing this song. beautifully done!

    you are right, we think the law did him wrong, there is so very much worse out there! and it IS a part of this culture. Noone would understand that if they do not live here. No, not just live here, but be a part of this culture.
