This one was written by Steve Goodman, and Arlo Guthrie did such a great job singing it. This was another one I couldn't get enough of.

Music Video "Yellow Bird" On The Ukulele
Sometime back in the 50s, Arthur Lyman did this on his Vibraphone/Vibes. I was a little kid with the record. I played it over and over and over until you couldn't hear the music anymore. It was the most beautiful piece of music I'd ever heard, and probably holds true till this day. My version doesn't begin to compare to Arthur's, but this is my version.
Sometime in the 90s, Arthur played in a hotel in Waikiki - kinda Daimond Head side, I don't remember the name of the hotel. He was magic on that instrument, and the nicest person you'd ever want to meet. It made me kind of sad that nobody paid attention - well, except me. Anyway...

Music Video The Pilgrim, Chapter 33
Also just finished this one. It's such a great song, written an originally done by Kris Kristofferson. Also made a monster hit by Johnny Cash.
Music Video Okie From Muskogee
I make these videos fairly regularly, sometimes two or three a week, some weeks I don't do any. But for the most part a couple a week. I just finished this one. It's Okie From Muskogee, originally done, of course, by Merle Haggard.
As with all my videos, I'm playing all the instruments, and I'm actually singing the songs - including the harmonies. All production, also by me.

If You're Gonna Play In Texas Music Video
This is If You're Gonna Play In Texas, originally done by the Country Band, Alabama - back in the 80s. It's a fiddle song, it don't start out that way, but it's a fiddle song, I promise :D .
All me, all real instruments, all real vocals, and all production.
