Anyone want to play a cool tune like Junior Brown?

I'm reposting this on my blog. It is my adaptation of Buddy Charleton's Almost To Tulsa, which is also played by Junior Brown. I had a nice conversation with Junior once and he told me how much he dug Mr. Charleton. I'm not sure if my adaptation matches Junior's, but I did get the idea of tuning the high G string down from him.

Here is Junior playing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFC62mldWWs

Here is my version: http://www.mikeneer.com/almosttotulsa.mp3

I'll keep this one up for a few weeks.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
