Acoustic guitar, slide acoustic guitar, and a shitload of vocals. All recorded through a Shure SM-58 and mixed on the MBR.

Another wonderful country song played and performed with the highest quality.   Willie

Now this is very cool. That slide at the intro blends in well but I was waiting on more.
Vocals are really nice too. Great song and recording Greeny.

On another note, this is coincidence I have been listening to Home Free's version this morning and the last few days.
Check out the beat boxer guy play a harmonica with no harmonica.

Lovely sound you got here, with the bendy folksy acoustic and those lovely layers of harmony. Very authentic sounding with that close harmony, old country ting ie the Louvin Brothers.

One of my favorite movies and songs well done this one I have found to be really hard to get right but you have nailed it

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

One of my favourite old bluegrass/folk songs and a great scene in the movie where they go and record it in the studio. You've covered this brilliantly, Tim and those harmonies would not be easy. Cool guitar work too.

I didn't know this track, but this is brilliantly done. Some beautiful guitar playing and terrific vocals, really liking those harmonies.

There are so many great versions of this tune, and this version fits right in. I didn't recognize your voice at all.

Aah, a country song I know, we recently watched the film. I too didn't recognise your voice on this one, the vox and harmonies are superbly done. Nice guitar backing as well, a great cover. Really enjoyed it.

Getting to this one a bit late...

A favorite song from one of my favorite Coen Bros. films. Excellent job on this, Tim. The harmonies sound right-on, and the guitar and lead vocal sound nice and punchy in the mix.

Loved this line from the film:
Delmar: Hey mister! I don't mean to be tellin' tales out of school, but there's a feller in there that'll pay you ten dollars if you sing into his can.

Nowawadays, for just a little money, we can all sing (and play) into a little silver box.

Making eating money at it might be a bit more difficult, though....  ;D
