Notes from Harry Orlove
A venerable chestnut from the early days of Country Music, this is the oldest song on the record, dating its first recording to 1925. I think I first heard it from the Grateful Dead. The arrangement is built around the guitar lick I made up. This is just a little funky little arrangement. I like the guitar solo at the end.
