Hi Bill -

A Truly Great Job.....one of my favorite BE songs.

Although you say you play in pain, please take satisfaction in knowing that your playing brings joy to others - and I sincerely hope to yourself, as well.

Excellent, Bill!

Hal Rugg did a great version of this tune on E9 a long while ago. I think it's on one of his CDs.

What nice chord changes it has!

Hal Rug did it on C6 on the album Alter Egos.
Maurice also did it on C6 the moods of Maurice Anderson album 2. We all know Buddy played it. Im sure there are more too.

Mike I use a Peavey TNT.130 Bass Amp WITH a Zoom 505.2 for reverb...and a Memory Man for Delay. My Steel is all pull
Emmons Legrande 2...I think it is 1979 or 1980 year. Hope this helps.

I think Julian Tharpe also did this tune on either "Into the Jet Age" or "Picks and Mallets." Very nice job.
