On July 28th past my favorite and oldest guitar student, Rocky Hazel passed away at the age of 97. I played at his Celebration Of Life service along with several other musical friends.
In his memory I arranged this solo for Dobro Guitar. Here is the link..............

and here's how Rocky looked with his Guitar. I learned far more from him than he got from me. Amazing Man!!

Never too old to learn! Way to keep the brain functioning. Use it or lose it. What a nice tribute.

Really lovely, and obviously played with great feeling (and musicality). Nicely done, and sorry for the loss of your friend.

I'm hoping I can grab my dobro and set it across my wheelchair at 97!
A touching arrangement, Roy. Good job. |

Thanks kindly Jim and Bill.
To clarify, I used the straight G Major tuning for this song.
D--B--G--D--B--G High to Low .. same as Rocky used.
