@captremo1 Yeah you're right. I met BRL when the Dillards came over to the UK. We were lucky enough to get invited backstage and we jammed for about 20 minutes! One of the best experiences of my life!
@aliwhitwell Billy Ray and I have been friends for nearly 40 years. We had a couple of bands that never caught on also. I don't see him so much now because he's in Nashville and I'm on the left coast but we talk often on the phone. He's a great guy with a huge heart and I[m fortunate to be his frinend. Thanks for the comment.
@rafabluegrass A bluegrass band I played in years ago played this song. The banjo player played through a fuzz pedal and amp and the sound was fantastic. Good luck with your cover. Hope to hear it sometime.
love this song

Note that the banjo player shown is not the player on the album and song. Banjo here is provided by Billy Ray Lathum who replaced Doug for a period.

I'm pretty sure they did this on the Larry Kane Show out of Houston, TX when Roots & Branches came out...wonder if that footage still exists?
