Truly great. I think it was Bobby Garrett that started the trend of improvisation for this song when he did it for Hank Thompson and recorded on the record titled something like “Hank Thompson at the Texas state fair.” As I recall that was circa 1961–1962.

I was seated right in front and the Arkansas boy did a great job. His whole set was very good and Bobby both. I got to play that guitar in Terry's booth after his set. The cross shafts were seated in bearings. It was really a smooth playing guitar.
