another with some fine players

a tune i played a few years back

Another version of this wonderful little tune with my good friend John Grimley on Bass......love it!!

A song by written by the great Gordon Lightfoot, performed by The Dusty Drifters from Ottawa. One of the tracks from their recent "The Dusty Drifters" release, which is available from the band as well as through CD Baby, iTunes, and Amazon.

I made an arrangement of Red Rocking Chair using licks from Earl's Nashville Blues. Here I play a little medley of the two songs. There's a tab for RRC on my tab page. Recorded with a Shure SM58 into a Saffire6 sound card. Processed with the free TesslaPro saturator and NastyVLC channel strip and some Reverb out of Ozone4. I hope you enjoy it!

My stab at this good ole fiddle tune.

Instrumental version of a classic tune. Pretty standard with some improve inthe middle. I come from clawhammer and 2 finger so my playing has an old timey feel i think. G-Tuning on my new Gibson

Here's my generic version....

This is a fine Reno and Smiley song, from a practice tape of my band Silver Spring, recorded in Vancouver, B.C., in the mid-1970s. Played on a 1929 Gibson model 6 flathead. A tab of the break is posted in the Tablature Archive on BHO.

My brother Gregory Gregory ( the kid so nice, Mom named him twice) wrote this. He has given permission to sing it wherever you are, and wherever you go. Hope the audio is clear, as to the words. If not, email me and I'll send you a copy. No tab, but chords, too, if you need them.
