Doug Jernigan - Sugarfoot Rag "Live"

Post by Bill Ferguson »

Here's a clip of the great Doug Jernigan from the 1999 Smoky Mountain Jamboree, Knoxville, TN.

Thank You to all the players and promoters for allowing me to be a part of these great shows and for allowing me to post video.

Doug really nailed this one just recently at the inaugural Midwest Steel Guitar Festival outside Chicago.

Bill, I think sometimes we just run out of ways to say “Awesome” or we just get a little lazy. Anyway, there’s no doubt that the 3830 people who watched the clip, had their socks knocked off by a great musician and we do appreciate you posting all these vids.

Bill, I really don't understand what you are wanting us to say or do. The first thing I notice is the number of hits, and at almost 4k....to me that says enough.

Charles, it's basically appreciation. I don't know of anyone that has put in the time,effort and energy that Bill has to bring us these great video's so a small thanks isn't too much to ask.

I have this song (and others) on a tape which was recorded in England with Gerry Hogan's permission.
Great playing by Doug. Thank you Bill!

Bill,
This is where I get my steel guitar education.
There are more players than I know and more unbelievable picking than I can absorb,
and everyone else's comments go beyond what I know.
But boy do I appreciate there always being something I haven't heard, and it's always good.
Thank you.

Doug Jernigan is one of my favorite players -- saw him early on in my steel journey and he continues to be the best. Nicest guy you will ever meet.
