Bob Wootton & Six Mile Grove - Folsom Prison Blues/ Guess Things Happen That Way descargar videos gratis

Thanks for the comments, Brad, all are good points. Having met and talked with Mr. Wooton, I can say in my experience he is a nice man. Having an ego in the entertainment business is not uncommon and in some ways necessary. I'm sure Johnny Cash could have had just about any guitar player he wanted, so there must be a reason he stuck with Bob so long. I'm guessing Bob would be one of the first to praise the talents of the writers and original performers of these songs, however, they are no longer here and he is, still giving us his version of the "boom-chicka-boom". Lastly, I would think that Carl Perkins falls somewhere in the top percentage of rockabilly guitarists, and could easily get the right sound for Cash's songs, where many others can't. Thanks again.

While I'm a huge Cash admirer/fan, I can honestly say that I am not a huge fan of Wootton. Perkins wrote the guitar parts that Wootton would cover for his entire career. This doesn't make him Perkins. My dislike for this man only came recently when i watched an interview with him where he was quoted as saying, "...only about 1/2 of 1% of guitar players can actually play this style the correct way..." Guy has a bit of an ego, whether he shows it often or not. Playing anything Cash is not the hard part. Being the men who WROTE this timeless music is the hard part. Cash, Perkins, and Grant deserve credit. Chicken picking is fun. The boom-chickuh-boom came from Perkins. Give credit where credit is due. Carl Perkins also spent several years playing with Cash before Wootton came along. Carl nailed this stuff just like any other solid musician could. So please, if you're going to give credit, give credit where credit is due. Not to a guy who has literally rested his laurels on the good grace of others for an entire career.
