Thanks Uncle John! Your assessment of the song is spot on; there is a tourist trap complete with statue in Winslow, Arizona as a testimony to the song’s staying power.

Coool, you nailed that one .

I appreciate the kind words Alan! I have always enjoyed this song, and we do it from time to time, but it has taken me awhile to do a reasonable job on it. Thanks!

A Good Song, well played by the Slingers, and an exceptional job on the vocals by Doug :-)

Quite the trip down memory lane BrianQ! I have my Winslow Arizona vanity plate and t-shirt courtesy of the tourist trap there. The joys of being an American. Thanks for the good words.

I agree Kale, the Eagles were strong in the guitar department! Fortunately for us, the song still works with only 2 strings.

Great version slingers, this song reminds me of the time I almost got arrested for jaywalking, they don’t play in Winslow!! :)

The Eagles on 2 strings. That's an unusual change considering they were a string band. :-D However you wanna slice it up... the song works in this context too.
