Hey all -
Great song and tough to play! I was hoping to capture a more "mistake free" version, but will roll with this one. If you want to try and learn it, I recommend Tim Van Roy's channel on YT; his videos helped me learn this! Recorded with a Tascam Portacapture X6, on an Eastman E10 OM TC.

Sounds really good, and very well played especially given the degree of difficulty (have you noticed how Tommy E doesn't strum many cowboy chords - obviously too tricky for him LOL).

Nice job Tim! I guess I never have heard this song before. I can't seem to play well with a thumb pick (or with any pick for that matter) and I like the use of bar chords. I will definitely will be adding this song to my to be played list. Is that your E6 OM featured on this song? the tone reminds me of my 00-18 a well played in sitka/mahogany combo, Thanks!

Victor, Tom, Alan - thanks, I appreciate it! It's a tough one to play clean on a single take... I had a few attempts but this was my best one and decided to stick with it.
This is played on my E10 OM-TC.

Excellent, Tim! That's got to be incredibly difficult to capture 'clean' in a single take!
Best, Steve
