that was Lloyd Green who played the intro, fills, and ride in the middle. As for how long it took, for me, I'm still trying to get it right. Lloyd had/has a touch all his own which is hard to copy so I just do a "reasonable" facsimile of it........JH in Va.

Calvin,I'm working on that,too.I just go slow to get all the parts right.There's no way to get it just like JD does it.I guess that's why each person should have their own style.Dicky Overbey has a great version of this song on his instrumental CD

I took the easy way out.....let the guitar do the intro, and steel from there on. Smile
