I attended church with Bobby Durhum. Recently he told me that Mr.Moon played on all his Capital records. He and Mood were also good friends.

Whoever this is they are playing in the moon style...I would guess Jay Dee because there is a whole tone 7th string raise and lowering the E's are being used...I don't think Mooney had those changes on his Sho-Bud.

No disrespect but I don’t think it’s a young Jay Dee. Of course I’ve been wrong before. March 1965. Capitol in Hollywood. I wonder if it might be Red Rhodes?

Yes, I think it's Red. I don't hear string 7; this sounds like it's on the thinner strings.
At 0:07 the G triad bends to a C triad using his LKL. (This is strings 3,4,5 at fret 11 with P2).
Then a second later at 0:08, strings 3,4,6 and still at fret 11 with P2 down, you hear the A note bend up to B using his P1.

There's one particular change on this record that Red Rhodes wore out on Freddy Weller's first Columbia album("These Are Not My People/Games People Play")and Earnest described it in detail...he plays it on the end of the intro,end of the first verse,and a couple of other times...

I'm going with Red...

I just got off of the phone talking to Bobby and he said it was Mr.Moon with Roy Nicholson on guitar. Everything he did at Capitol records was Moon and Roy.
