It;'s just a guitar lesson.. but its actually my fave version of this song.
I purchased "A decade of Buster B Jones" and after listening to it I had you pictured as some sort of a wild man. But now having watched this video I realise you are a pretty mellow guy. These lessons are really helpful but I'll never be able to duplicate some of the stretches you do. You are one of the best!
I love the way just bounces along. Sounds effortless. If only!
God bless his soul what a musician man and player , I did not know he passed away, last time we met he was so alive and well. BLESS HIS SOUL .
he makes it look so relaxed and easy - the sign of a true master
Thank you Buster for all that wonderful music.
Oh man 😂 One of my favorites 👍👍🇺🇸
WOW! I was about to ding him for not giving credit to Sam Chatmon and his brothers ( The Mississippi Sheiks ) for writing this song but I watched the video first. What a Great tutorial and a Terrific version of this classic.
Brilliant bloke, superb finger picker. If Chet rates you highly etc. He did a few great instructional videos like this, all well worth studying. Great shame he left us too early.
I think he did a better job teaching then any of the other greats. Think he enjoyed it more. Most of the others assume you already know it.
Pat donohue 's videos are very good too and easier to play, Buster was a monster, "You play along" lol
YES,
Greatings from teh Netherlands
Great player , I had a pint with him in Dublin , he was over with Godan guitars some years ago
what a guy. sorry he's gone.
A great player and teacher. A very generous man.
A fabulous picker ...
Don ...
R.I.P.
what a great picker.
this sounds exellent!
Beautiful! Too bad that he left us too soon. Did some really great stuff with Tom Bresh.
SO COOL!!!
Awesome!!!
amazing..
man this is great stuff thanks for posting....
Unfortunately Buster just passed away with liver failure. He was 49. God grant him eternal peace.
wow and i just found him-people never die on youtube!
Notice Buster was using guitars from the Robert Godin family of guitars... the Simon & Patrick, and the Godin Multiac. I'm trying to decide between the Godin Multiac Nylon Duet and Carvin's CL450. Anyone out there had a chance to compare the 2?
I wish I could see your fretboard the way you do when playing
If this is on DVD, I would be interested in knowing where to find it, the music stores around here are nearly gone. God Bless You.
You can find the DVD and/or tablature at guitarvideos.com
There is a link in the RUclips description. Enjoy!
Chet would approve......
@autinspare This is so true. Especially when it is not so easy.
why does he tune down one note and put a capo on the 2nd? Better tone than normal tuning without capo?
He had had a surgery in his arm at that time, so he couldn't stretch his fingers enough to be able to play in the standard tuning.
I personally prefer to do the same because, not only does the tone seem a little crisper, the strings feel slightly tighter, too. This causes those open strings to sound a bit nicer, in my opinion.
Nice 😅
Does anyone know who Buster B. Jones's Father is/was? I have heard it was Carl Russell who demoe'd Guitorgans made in Waco, Texas. I knew Carl and I see Carl's traits in Busters charactaristics. Both awesome thumb pickers. I am wondering..........H-mmmmmmm???
Look up him playing wild turkey
Good thing you didn't rush through it and explained your notes
One persons jaw dropped on the dislike button.

It probably would have cost twenty quid or more to buy this on dvd a few years ago. All free now... must be hard times for professional musicians!
treemendous
