Here's my cover with tabs of this classic by the great Buck Owens! I'm playing a '52 Custom Shop Fender Telecaster through Logic Pro amp modeling.

My grandpa made his living playing the accordion (polka music) there wasn’t an instrument he couldn’t play, you brought him back to life in my mind for a second. Nice playing style I’m also a guitarist.

[@CosmicPowerCP]

Buck owens was a national treasure alongside marty robbins and many more. Thank you for this Tom.

[@videogeekin]

"This tune is very interesting and reminds me of Sweden's 'The Spotnicks'. They covered quite a few 'Country' songs instrumentally. Polka's are really popular in Europe. The lead guitarist Bo Winberg built his own amplifiers and effects. No one was able to sound like him."

[@CC-te5zf]

Mighty fine! Purposeful and confident attack! Buck would approve!

[@jamboreeband]

Outstanding playing, love that Telly, also when the snare drums kick in it really lifts the beat

[@random275]

Great right hand control ! Loved it.. Cheers Phil

[@tomcon21]

Thank Phil!

[@verbeekh]

I couldn’t have more fun playing this in my local guitar shop. It was a hit especially with the heavy metal set, thanks

[@jonathanhudak2059]

How could anybody go and dislike this video and performance? Brilliant Tom, very well executed and played! Thanks always for providing the tablature Tom. Your videos are a real treasure... 😊👍

[@edpeekeekoot4736]

Some people just don’t have any sense, respect, or taste in music.

Nailed That ! This has got to be the absolute best version of this I have ever heard...Well Done !!

[@Brian_Vallejo]

Awesome song, thanks for posting! Kudos on the beautiful Tele.

[@kenterline64]

Well, that has got to test your endurance! Thanks for sharing. Now let's see if I can pull this one off.

[@岳男井出]

Genius … Buck Owens!

[@joepalooka2145]

Wow, what a fun and challenging piece of music to play. I'm not up to full speed yet, but getting there. It's an excellent technical workout for both hands, besides being another great Buck Owens tune. Buck and his band were really good musicians, not just your average country band. They were extremely inventive and creative, and hugely influential. Surprisingly Buck didn't play a lot of electric guitar lead pieces like this, but left most of that up to his wonderful sidekick Don Rich. Obviously Buck was a real talented guitarist in his own right.

[@bobxoneill]

I bought your ebook...hopefully this tab can be purchased too!

[@cletussea-ray944]

[@tomcon21]

"*Yup that's a darn good one, too ! WoW !!TY Tom !!♦♦:*

[@jeffhussey1089]

Awesome as always! Now cover “buckaroo” if you could please, I’d love to hear your take on Don Rich’s classic.

[@lestat666666666]

really nice ☺️🎸👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸

[@steve60.]

Another great video,, unbelievable, I was wondering if you do ' happy go lucky guitar' by Buck and Don Rich. Its a cool twangy type number but it very guitarish.

[@dennissollars9062]

FEET, Stop Dancin'!

[@human673]

you know, the part from 0:04 to 0:07 somehow reminds me of thunderstruck by ac/dc... still a great cover!

[@ErnestUngureanu]

Merveilleux !!!

[@morgan79347]

Wow love it.

[@AlainCarayon]

Bravo !

[@trevorgwelch7412]

I remember when Buck Owens appeared on Hee Haw TV program

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

Really good 😎

[@drazenlipic8791]

Hey, great work. Thank you soo much Im trying to cover it. Have you got a backing track. I would like to buy it but i dont find it on your site.

[@tomcon21]

Not available yet, thanks!

[@chrissoulman5070]

Fuggin awesome

[@MyMy-zi7yv]

AL----Right Tom!!!!!!!

[@MyMy-zi7yv]

Just curious Tom, I'm sure you like all kinds of music but what is your favorite type?

[@tomcon21]

I guess The Beatles and 50s rock and roll.

[@specialkalberta]

Any chance you could do a cover of The Way by Fastball? It has some surf sounding guitar in it and I'm 100% sure you'd do an excellent job on it.

[@law13ie29]

Excellent !! I have been listening to alot of Buck Owens & Don Rich lately & luv this tune. It's Eb on the record I think so working out the lead is tricky. Will definitely give it a go. Awesome playing as usual. I didn't check yet will backing track be available to purchase ?

[@tomcon21]

Definitely within a month or two at the most. Thanks!

[@law13ie29]

Thanks Tom 🎸👏🏻 Look forward the backing track & more videos 🥳

[@JoeyAce]

Buck and the Buckaroos tuned their instruments a half step down, thus it's in Eb but they are playing in E. I doubt if you could do this song in Eb without tuning down. You'd lose that distinctive E drone.

[@tomcon21]

No because it’s all based on that open e string (or e-flat depending on tuning)

[@andrerock6754]

Very nice and refreshing! Thanks, Tom!

[@BigEd2612]

I love me a good polka ! Beautifully played Tom thank you !!!!

[@tomcon21]
