My apologies to Duke Ellington (composer)... and Bill Keith... and The Ventures... all of whom have recorded it... well. Thanks to Banjoman for the tab. Geeze!! I need to work on my endings. You are going to have to turn up your volume to hear this one.

Good old Scruggs favorite of mine. I got a new mic... I think it makes a big difference in the sound quality... Oh yeah, this is the first tune I have recorded using my Gibson... so that may have something to do with the sound quality...too... maybe.

A lot of missed notes and stumble fingers but it seems that when I missed a note I was trying to hit I stumbled onto one that worked... so it is all good... ya know?

A little rough at the end but I think it turned out OK overall.
