I put this tune together as a simple tune, as if i played it on the back porch with my great friend "The Kidd". we share so much musically but have never met due to the great distance between us. So this is how we do it, in Spirit

My thanks go to John (the Kidd) for putting down some great guitar and bass on this track. This is something i shall treasure for a long time thanks to him. John had to fight my freestyle timing and has done a superb job, thanks John.

Big Country. recorded this quick run for "The Kidd" so he could hear the clarity of my new recording software, Sony Studio 8. I have just a flat Gibson on this, no compression or any effects.

Taken from the Mick Smith country radio show, this recording talks for a minute about the banjo hangout then I play the tune, I would like to give a big thank you to John Kuhn AKA "The KIDD" for supplying me with the guitar and bass track

Here's Bob and I, "The Old Grey Dogs" playing Bela's up and around the bend. Its a total 100% single string tune that we enjoy very much. Played flat into our new studio, the Sony Audio 8 suite so we can get a feel of how the studio preforms flat.

The Boog and myself cut this track a good while ago now. He has just had to semi-retire his banjo due to osteoathritis and i am just behind him with the same complaint. I thought i would re-submit this as a memory to a great and dear friend with his amazing electric banjo. Always keep your soundfiles, they become precious memories and no mistake. Good luck to you Boog, and thanks for this ........Joe.
