It was Steve's album also and that particular song that pushed me from Scruggs style to the clawhammer style. The one that is posted by someone showing Steve Martin playing it was from a long time ago. He was convinced to slow it down for the album and it really did, in my opinion, make it much better. I sure hope I can get that tune down within the next year. Sure would be nice to see a tab out on that one. I read Tony Trishka is working on a new book covering the songs from the Crow album.

Terrific! I'm sure that my iPod gadget won't be the only one with your medley to be found on it. Thank you very much, Wes. Terrific!

Well done Wes. I found the Steve Martin video on YouTube doing this medley. Yours is miles, miles better! Only been playing for a year ?!
