Genre: Other / Playing Style: Clawhammer and Old-Time
As I listened to this original song the first time the melody happily drove along just like the title suggests. But Jim's 3-finger picked melodic song is so incredibly intricate and skillful, I had to simplify it with this clawhammer version so I could enjoy playing it, too.

Thanks, Donnie. I commend you for organizing a jam and sharing some videos of it. They couldn't have had a better vacation than going to your house!

Great job, Janet. Converting Jim's unique picking to clawhammer must not be easy, you've done it with great respect and creativity.
