Here's the theme song from the '68 Clint Eastwood spaghetti western, Hang'em High. Last October Joe Page, a fellow Alaskan, and I started recording his new instrumental cd, Alaska Mando. This is the only non-original song from the 12 tunes. The dobro is G tuning with the low G dropped to E. Hope you all enjoy it...

Hang'em High

I did not think fingers could go that fast. Smile

My fingers don't go that fast. Sad Crying or Very sad

Great playing, Greg.

Aloha, Smile

Very cool rendition of a great tune and super hot playing.

I think Booker T and MGs had a hit with this one if I'm not mistaken.

If you're looking for other Booker T tunes to mine for the next album, I'd suggest "Hip Hug Her"

Cool

I just loved that recording. Bill is correct that Booker T did a nice cover of this tune.
