You got that right Fang! A special Happy Birthday wish to James Burton! Ricky Nelson's lead guitar player that wrote the leads to many classics like Hello Mary Lou. He played behind Elvis on record and during his run on the Vegas strip for many years as well. He played behind Roy Orbison one of my other favorite singers too. He is the king of the Tele guitar country rockers IMHO. :thu:

 

Happy Birthday to Carl and Jacob too! :thu:

Take care, Larryz

Happy birthday to all of them. Mason Williams Classical gas was always a tune I liked. Maybe I will try to learn it when I retire and get time to practice again. It should go along with my feeble attempts at finger picking Jim Croce songs. Jim
