  • Could anyone confirm for me that the lowdown bass note at 3:05 (and other places) is in fact a bowed string bass through an octave shifter - or whatever they call it? Merle's own live recording of this not too long ago has the same very rich low note.

  • Good question. Here in my version...it is simply a keyboard brass sample at the appropriate low note. I thought it came closest. I can't tell you what Merle's producer used on the original cut.

  • Great video but the singer needs to leave Merle to Merle. He tries to hard on the lows (if it doesn't come natural, you're never gonna hit the note) and the worst part is; you can actually hear the yankee in his voice. Put a lil twang in it son!

  • for you beadles,outlaws

  • what a voice.........fantastic.....

  • listen and you will here the bass played thru out the song

  • @olmusiclover The low note you hear is a bass trombone
