Yes sir. Great band. I've always heard Farewell Blues as a bluegrass tune. Swings quite nicely.

Sol Hoopii recorded a great swinging version of it in the 30s.

Thanks for the info Mike. When I heard your link I thought maybe it started out as swing tune.

Thank you so much, Mike! Too bad to watch it and think that Tom, Bobby, and Leon are no longer with us.

For my money,Tom is top of the list for jazz steel guitar-always inventive, always surprising, and always swinging. Respect must also be paid to one of the greatest guitarists as well, Leon Chambers-he and Tom could sound like six or seven people playing a melody in harmony.
