Have to agree 100%...I've been playing this song for years (albeit more the Del McCoury bluegrass version which suits my somewhat limited ability better Smiley ). Just can't beat RT's original though... best motorcycle song for sure by far, and just a cool song overall cooldude

Del

One of my favorite bluegrass artists, old Del. Remember when he first started doing this song there were a lot of Richard Thompson fans who were upset that Del changed "Boxhill" to "Knoxville" ....hence the reference he makes to that in this clip

The band that first introduced me to this song is the Celtic Rock bang Jiggernaut... (Who, incidentally, I'll be seeing this weekend at the North Texas Irish Festival! Woot! And extre nice since I get to watch them in concert while I'm not wearing pants... Wink )
