I did my time, 16 1/2 years in West Virginia. I can surely relate to this song!

Earl is so dialed-in to creative expression on this song you can only be amazed by it. Earl's second to none.

This is probably my favorite song of all time period. The combination of Lester's rhythm guitar technique, earls banjo pickin and the conversation between them define the original principal of "drive" in bluegrass. It has not to so with speed, stayin' on top of the song and pushing it. I agree with the consensus, no one since can touch it. 

Mary Cage

This was their original style before they added Josh on the dobro.

I'm a "yank" and this is some of my favorite music ever!

Love this tune, but this recording has added reverb not on the original Mercury record. Still love music though...

Amen Jocwalk. i'm having a hell of a time matching the lyrics to Lester's. I can do it simpler, but his style is hard.

I can tell you that this song is a lot tougher to sing in a band than it seems. The unusual rhythm of the song makes it a challenge. Lester made it sound so easy.

The Jimi Hendrix of the banjo..........he just did it for me.
