Yep! I love ballads too Uncle John. The Johnny Cash (boom chick uh, boom chick uh) strum does have a great feel with this song. Thanks for watching.
I could not remember who wrote this - then read on down. Thanks guys- written by Steve Goodman ( a good friend of John Prine) and sung so well by Arlo Guthrie. Your strum has a real great sound of steel wheels on steel track with the bumps on the joints.
I love a good story or story song. Nice.
Thanks Jonathan! Of course you were there to catch it and play along with it live!!!
Until you mentioned it Kale, it didn't register as a train song, but train songs do seem to be Chugger friendly. Thanks for watching.
A classic train tune. Perfect for the CBG.
I agree Alan and thanks for the kind words! One measure of a great song is how many notable artists cover it and this is one of those.
"Well Done Slingers", what a great Song, first written and recorded by Steve Goodman in 1971. and since covered by a multitude of different Artists, hard to pick a favourite, but as per BrianQ's comment, Arlo Guthrie's version does deserve a mention
Glad you liked our Chugger rendition BrianQ! I enjoyed getting up to speed on this one.
Nice, Arlo had such a laid back style compared to his father, great version slingers 👍🏽
