Recently, I was looking at some old Ernest Tubb videos with Buddy Emmons playing steel. This video, DRIVING NAILS IN MY COFFIN, has a young Buddy Emmons playing with the most enthusiasm and energy I have ever seen him play. I hope you enjoy it.

Maybe he'd gotten into

It's always great to revisit this video.
I transcribed it and posted a pdf of the tab a few years ago.

That clip is one of my favorites too.

Joey: There's also a recent thread, with another transcription and discussion
of how Buddy is playing the 6th tone (with AB down) - concensus is he's playing the C pedal with his right foot (rather than reaching to first string)
