Here's an old Merle Haggard song that I have recently fell in love with. To me, it has to be one of the top 10 country songs I have ever heard. Listen to the words. You don't hear things like this on today's country radio for sure. I hope that you enjoy!

I've been working in my JD Crowe Classic Solos tab book by Russell Sawler at bluegrassoutlet.com on some of the breaks to the Bluegrass Album Band Recordings. Here is Letter From My Darlin'. I'm playing a Yates Ron Stewart model maple banjo.

Here's my best attempt at pulling some Ron Stewart/JD Crowe tone! I love Ron's playing of this song on Dwight McCall's CD and I have listened to many JD Crowe concerts of him playing this one.

Here is my attempt at JD Crowe's two breaks from the Bluegrass Album Volume 1. I'm using tab purchased from Russell Sawler at bluegrassoutlet.com. My picking wasn't quite as clean as I would like, but I tried to get it up to speed. This is a fast one!

I've love this song. I thought it would be too difficult for me but I think its coming along pretty well. I need to smooth it out and speed it up just a bit.

This is a real pinky stretch! I was working on an up the neck lick I have heard Ron Stewart use, and I found a nice way to incorporate it into the B part of Salt Creek.

This is a song that my group, New Journey, performed at the Community Baptist Church in Hillsville, NC on 5-31-13. No banjo on this one. I'm chopping chords on the mandolin. The interesting part about this song is that there are only three of us singing on this "quartet" song. I get to sing both baritone and bass parts. Can you hear the smile on my face! One of my favorites!
