A spooky version for a grey Monday.  I always felt this song was a story told 'round a campfire late at night.  So all the bouncy versions never quite worked for me....  much as I love Townes and Waylon and Willie.  So here it is.  Beware - it'll getcha!    Geo

Never heard the orignal Geo but really enjoyed this one, your playing is spot on (again....), but what I really love are the parts where you are humming along, there is a tenderness and the absolutely transparent honest emotions of a man completely immersed in what he is playing...and loving it...it's lovely to hear!

I am loving your music!

wow !!!

This is fab


love it

[Flash Harry]

It got me.

Wow.

Deep chocolate. I normally find the compressed, narrow audio spectrum of the dobro unsatisfying, I have just suffered a paradigm shift. This is magic. I have to re-assess my whole life philosophy.

Thanks...

Very nice work, DD.

Haunting, melancholy, nice story-telling.

On the iPod.
