With all due respect Gary, Mr. Capps' world encompasses far more than just rhythm guitar..

Barry, I agree. Mr. Capps is an excellent guitar player, rhythm, lead, it doesn't matter. He can play, plus he is truly a great individual. Gary

I never did like the Grand Ole Opery and still don't and I have been to it once. I like western swing and jazz with fiddles, horns, piano and drums. I don't like blue grass either. Opry music used to sound out of tune to my ears and way to corny. Now it's 70's rock and roll.
