Stringbean sings the blues. When I was a kid, I’d see him on Hee Haw fairly often. Though I liked him, I saw him as more of a comedy act. Comedy was part of his act, but there was also a damned fine musician under that silly hat. He could frail a banjo faster than anyone I’ve ever seen, and he could sing or crack a joke while doing it. Here on this tune, he plays a bluesy two finger style that really shows off his skill. I’ve come to appreciate the talent of Stringbean more and more as I get older.

@@kiefsweat6507 my grandpa told me the joy of getting a nickle for a coke back in the 50's, it was a privilege and luxury to be able to listen to the radio, his family lived in a 2 room shack with holes in it, 8 kids, and had to chop railroad ties, firewood, and trap coons and game to survive. His first pair of shoes was a pair of cleats that were thrown out, and he found. People wouldn't give him rides into town because he was poor.

Long story short.. I recorded a cover of this about twenty years ago and it was banned by the local radio station, though people were requesting it. 😐 Go back 30 years before String recorded this song and Uncle Dave was shouting "Kill yourself!" on his records.

After my grandmother died, I lost track of that part of the country. I sincerely hope they did. (My grandmother lived in the mountains outside of Gatlinburg, TN.) She would take me to Sweet Fanny Adams Theater, the Grand Ol' Opry, and Dollywood. I loved them all, but as I play the sax, I am more of a blues person myself.

He and his wife met a sad end, It was the end of an era for Nashville too. He made us laugh. He made us happy. Letter from home, right here next to my heart, heart, heart, then he would find it in his back pocket! Lesson for today: Carry a personal protection pistol, larger than a .22, which I believe Stringbean had. He used it, and missed. As a result, both he and his wife were killed. Practice with your weapon of choice. Gun control means being able to hit your target. My karate instructor, a 7th degree black belt, put it best when one of my classmates thwarted a knife wielding robber at a bus stop. He told us using his best English: "Man have gun, man have knife, give him what he wants, you life more better!."
