Thanks for sharing this wonderful Edn Hammons tune. I am from Northern Greenbrier Country, just south of Pochahontas County where the Hammons family hailed from. You have nailed his style, thanks for keeping it alive.
Yes, there's a lot of "alternative" versions of this tune floating around, especially ones that leave out the third slightly altered A part and that completely change the delightfully weird B part. You play it the way Eddens did. Thank you.
I think Mr. Hammons would be quite please with this.

that is just incredible playing. thanks so much for putting this on YouTube.
Edden Hammons was the uncle of my great-grandfather, Currence Hammonds. I'm only now starting to learn how famous (infamous?) and influential he was.
