This song brings back such sweet memories of the farm and the smell of new mown hay. The peaceful quiet of the nights. What a great song.

The lead singer sounds a lot like a young Billy Edd Wheeler. Such a great and timely song. I sure do miss that old farm of yesterday.

What's with all the fret buzz? Is the action too low? Some say this is the Django sound, but he played cleaner than that. Is the buzz caused because the Gypsy strings are so flexible? I could never get my Gitane to not buzz. Might go to a heavier gauge strings. The thick pick is the way to go tho...

The two adults have a nice harmony blend.

What brand of ukulele is she playing and how is it tuned? Are there octave strings or just unison?

What brand of guitar is he playing?

Sing that soul sister.

Sooooo fine.

Man, if you don't get it on this song, you ain't gonna get it.

Nice job. You need to be a little bit rougher on the strings to get that "Hurt" feeling. Loosen up a bit. You've got the basics, stay with it. I found if I eat a lot of grits i can't play this song any better, but I think I can. The rhythm is the key. Great sounding guitar.

I saw them live at Poor Richard's in Chicago back in 1966. What a great bunch. They had a ball playing their music. Great stuff.

Folks, it just don't get no better than this. This and Ralph Stanley's version with Keith Whitley singing lead are the best versions you are ever going to find.

I swear that would bring a tear to a glass eye. Just beautiful.

Such an exciting performer.

One of the first songs Don Gibson wrote.

Don Gibson wrote a B side back in the fifties for Hank Snow called, "I'm Glad I Got To See You Once Again". I've never heard anyone else do it. It's one of Gibson's typical sad love songs. Great tune. Don led a rough life. One of his wives tried to kill him. He had substance problems and all sort...

Have the original Lonzo and Oscar passed on?

I must say your version of Branded Wherever I Go has to be the best version I've ever heard.

Now friends and neighbors, that's music, pure music.

And he did all this without any special effects. What a great player.

Thanks so much. I'll give it a try.

My daddy always told me, "Never cuss a farmer with your mouth full".

Will Zinzer's Bulls Eye liquid shellac work with a pad rather than mixing the shellac flakes with alcohol?

Sometimes called, "I am A Roving Gambler".

"Moronic audience" is a good term for these idiots. I'll bet if you asked most of them what instruments were playing they would answer, "Oh, was there someone playing? I guess I missed it". People are so wrapped up in themselves they have no idea if Christ was crucified or run over by a bicycle. ...

Are the inlays in her fingerboard missing? Hmmmmm.

Country music as it was supposed to be played.

Worked with Ms. Arthur at the Big D Jamboree in Dallas many years ago. She was one of the unsung talents in country music. Had a great honky tonk voice.

Hi Kids. If you ever get back to Eureka Springs let me know. Red ;?)

Good to see my former pickin' buddy Mel Carper doing well in Austin. Break a leg

Used to perform with Bill and Joe over TV station KRCG in Jefferson City, Mo. back in the 50's. They were with Wayne Rainey who was the MC. Bill, I think it was, had a cartoon show called The Sheriff's Show. The brothers used to make personal appearances with Rainey and Bill would do the comedy. ...

Sounding good as always. Keep at it. Want to see you picking up some of these awards. You've got something a lot of the so-called "country artists" don't have...talent. Best of luck.

What happened to the Stomberg guitar? They were great rhythm jazz guitars.

Used to work with Thumbs on the old Ozark Jubilee. What a great guitarist. He was paired up with the great Curly Chalker on steel. They played some great stuff. RIP fellows.

What strings are you using? Regular bass strings or Weed Whacker line?

I thought I was the only one who put the quick "4/5" chords in that song. Ha, ha was I mistaken or what? Your voice was made for this song. I've heard a lot of people sing this one, but your version is the only one that sounds how the song should be sung. Your voice has the "family touch". Contin...

String was such a classic. I sure miss him.

Did you make your own tailpiece? Where did you find the measurments?

I think Rachel's last name was spelled Veach. I spelled it Veech in another post. Sorry.

Jake was such a fine musician and a very funny fellow. They're all gone now except Earl. RIP boys. You were classics.

"Scratch (the devil, old Scratch) on the hillside rakin' up leaves".."Get my dog and let's go hunting, chase that rabbit out of town". Also love the line in Uncle Dave's Railroadin and Gamblin that says, "Get your feet outta the sand, stick 'em in the mud". That's an old square dance call that Dr...

Great tone. What strings are you using, and what is your amp? Also very nice playing. One of my favorite tunes.

What kind of guitar are you using? Great tone.

You've got to be kidding! This is a joke, right?
