Tired of playing second fiddle to a old guitar

[OlRedNeckHippy]

Stick with it at least to the 1:00 mark lead. The lead is very familiar.

 

[xgritzx]

man I love the way he plays those short runs around the chords during the verse and pre-chorus.

 

[brookdalebill]

Cool 345!
The solo is basically Sugarfoot Rag.
I wonder if Hank Garland played on the recording.
The guitarist in the video is miming.

 

[OlRedNeckHippy]

@brookdalebill , you think it's a overdub? I need to see it on a bigger screen.

Sugar Foot Rag, eh? Cool. That lick somehow reminds me of my childhood.

 

[Bulldoggio]

Not Sugarfoot Rag, it's Yackety Ax.

 

[boop]

Now that's the type of country guitar I want to learn, I reckon they are both miming

 

[OlRedNeckHippy]

Yakety ax ! Just amazing.

 

[24 track]

And here i thought it was Benny Hill's theme music, ( what do I know)

 

[Jim622]

I went right to Benny also.

 

[Bones]

That was really, really, bad.

 

[SecretSquirrel]

Very cool, and funny song! I got "Yakety Axe" from the first part of the solo.

P.S. That video led me to an hour of watching Jean Shepard sing. She just got better and better. R.I.P.

 

[Cheap guitar guy]

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

If you locked me in a room and cuffed me to a chair to interrogate me and left me there with this song on repeat...by the time it came on the second time I would tell you whatever you want to know or beg you to kill me.

 

[RL52]

Only guessing, is that learned from mastering the banjo then applying it to guitar?

 

[Chunkocaster]

First thing that came to my mind too.

Not Sugarfoot Rag More like Yackety Axe (a takeoff on Yaketty Sax)

Not at all like the acoustic sounding guitar on the version that got radio play.

Pretty sure that there is a boom mic shadow early in the video.

Duly noted, yer honor!
I did a little mental free associatin’ there
SF Rag and Yakety Ax (or Sax) are often medley-fied.

Same here.

 

[monkeybanana]

Lol I can relate to this song. Well, someone else I used to know can haha.

 

[kelnet]

Now I've got THAT stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
