Wonderful song (written by Norman Blake) & wonderful performance. Tony's right hand pick control is really something to see. It's a shame that longstanding throat problems have stilled his singing voice for many years but his beautiful, elegant flatpicking style is as good or better than ever.

I saw Tony Rice for the first time in either 1979 or 1980 at Humboldt State's Van Duzer Theatre in Arcata, California. He was playing with David Grismon's Hot Dawg band and was stunning. For the next 5 years the big argument with my Southern California friends was "Who's a better guitar player?" "Eddie VanHalen or Tony Rice?"
Guess which camp I was in.
