I wanted to play a Dobro instrumental, so here it is

This version is instrumental with my Dobro Epiphone, Ibanez elecro acoustique, and Uke bass Kala

I looked up the original because I didn't know the artist or the song.
You did a good job on it JP.

Very nice JP! The dobro and the Ibanez sounds so sweet! Merle Haggard is from Oildale, California. A town about 200 miles south of me. My parents played his records all the time when I was growing up. You did a great instrumental version of his song!

[Jean Pierre]

thank you Corné and Farrell

..I must say that I didn't know Merle Haggard whom I discovered indirectly through this instrumental version...I listened a bit ..and I like it I read his biography on wiki,..he had a rather "eventful" youth

Great playing! Merle Haggard was off limits to me growing up – having internalized an anti-country-music snobbery. This recording of yours is another sad reminder of what I missed out on because of my aversion to the genre. I think my dad liked Merle Haggard, but he was mostly a Roger Miller guy.

The bass sounds really good. I was wondering if you used your BIAB friend, but ...

Uke bass Kala

No! Excellent!

[Jean Pierre]

thanks Ted ...I don't really like country music except when there's a telecaster with that sound so twangy I love it, and then I love lap steel and pedal steel guitar, so I like country music ...but not always the lyrics often a bit (a lot) shabby

For the bass you're very perceptive Ted ..I first made a backtrack with BIAB but as the bass was quite simple I played it (in biab there's not only the famous backtrack with the real tracs) but also the solfege and tablature score of all the instrumental parts so you can play them very well yourself (what do the people expect!)

Tres bon! A really lovely piece. I love all those instruments individually and collectively.

[Ray Brookes]

You play that instrument so beautifully, JP
