TOTW 08/15/2025 - Crook Brother’s Breakdown
The source of Crook Brothers Breakdown is a 1964 recording of a group who were with the Grand Old Opry from its inception in the 1920's. They play fast, fast, fast! I play at 65% of their speed. You'll hear a bit of cello banjo accompaniment.

Very sweet picking, Janet! I've been taking things easy too, for awhile now. My heart just doesn't beat all that fast anymore!
