Hi,

Haven't posted in a long time, getting back into clawhammer. Anyone know this song or can play it? i know the tuning thanks to the booklet from his Smithsonian DC. But need some advice or tab. Thanks.

The link I posted is all I found on YouTube. What is the tuning he uses?  I only listened to a short segment, but I didn't hear a prominent melody. With the tuning in hand, I might hear what you're looking for.

Hi David,
Tony played mostly Pop Rock style tunes in those days way way back. So this is a re-hash I guess. I can't hear a melody either, just chord changes really....Jack
