One of the most powerful scenes ever committed to film. It is the first song I learned to frail by. Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks for the link to u-tube. Now would be a GREAT time for someone to post a "Clawhammer TAB for Plastic Jesus".

Keep on the "sunny side"!

i remember practicing while watching 'cool hand luke' no late night tv, and had a weird kind of deja vu moment when he picked up the banjo.
Great movie, RIP Paul.

*** I just learned to play "Closer Walk With Thee" on the banjo. Someone else plays it on the guitar in COOL HAND LUKE. Is that an old Fairbanks or maybe a SS Stewart banjo that he is playing on "Plastic Jesus"? What a great actor Paul was, he had so many good movies. God Bless you Paul.
