NEW UP DATE WITH VIDEO

3 or 4 days ago I heard still surfing randomly on YT a nice acoustic version by Justin Johnson with mandolin guitar and dobro of Simple man by Lynhyrd Skynhyrd

I wanted to try it with my mandolin, my dobro and my guitar

after having started, I realized that it was harmonically the repetition on ...50 bars of the chords Am C and G

intrigued all the same I listened to a live version at the Florida theatre in 2015

and so I deviated to a sung version but still with the acoustic instruments mandolin guitar dobro plus a bass track and drums of BIAB

There have already been covers of this song including the one by Stephen M and the one by Tim TBP which are both very good and I recommend you

no problem Stephen, I was wondering if there was a hidden meaning. It gave me the opportunity to listen to this song, I don't often go on the original song ... ;)

Great cover of this song! I love the bluegrassy video of your version. Great vocals here! Nice mix and interplay between the instruments here!

The Simple Man got positively JPfied! It was their song, but now it's yours too.

I think this performance has a multicultural vibe. It's almost like going across the globe in mere 6 minutes and a change.
