Thanks AGP. 3 string CBG tributes to 6 string legends. Sounds like an album title. I'm hoping this is the last for a while.

Thanks turtlehead. R&R would have sounded different without him for sure.

"Jim Morris" truly "The King" of tributes, it's just a pity there's been so many legends who have passed lately. ;-(

You got that dialed in just right Jim, sounds great.  Without Scotty, there might not be such a thing as Rock and Roll.

Thanks Unc. I wish I didn't have to do these for folks passing this year but hey, for us 60 something guys the folks we learned from are mostly in their 80's and beyond if they're still with us at all. I just hope that some of the younger members will maybe see a tribute like this and then go look up guys like Scotty if they're not familiar with the person.

Thanks to you for your tributes.  Man that is some rocking good rockabilly.

Thanks Dave. This style is a lot different from clawhammer banjo but both styles have that cool thing of once you get the rhythm rolling it takes on a life of it's own.
