Statue Of A Fool

Here's some mega-crooning. Old one written by Don Gibson and first recorded as a hit by Jack Greene.

This uses bar chords on nine different frets, right at the edge of my current twanging chord-changing prowess.

I also have loaded a few others since my last post. Including one X4 mentioned, called 'Red Neck, White Socks, and Blue Ribbon Beer'. So go ahead and click around if you're up to it.

Click on 'Statue Of A Fool' at this site:

Thanks for giving them a listen.

Thanks EddieZ, TomG, SS.

TomG - that's the atmosphere I like to present - one guy here described it as 'the movie cowboy strumming under the window of the beautiful girl'.

SS - great that she got some exercise from it and liked it.
