Why Every Guitar Player Needs to know THIS Song ★ Acoustic Tuesday 194

- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- Alright...don't laugh at me, but I really think this song is absolutely foundational for learning guitar. And, even though everyone treats it like a punching bag, it's one of the best vehicles for learning chords, improvising, and phrasing.
Yep, we're talking about @DariusRucker and his hit classic "Wagon Wheel." Whether you're a beginner guitar player or experienced, you need to learn this song. There's so much to unpack in this simple, 4-chord song. The sky's the limit on this one, and it provides a solid framework for so many other songs.
Additionally, you'll get a chance to see what's going on inside the TAC community and hear from one of our members.
Last but not least, I'm dishing the latest acoustic guitar news you can use. There's plenty to cover this week, and I hope you enjoy!

I started learning guitar at 40, about 3 years and 2 months ago. I’ve missed tops of 2-3 days. And I also started taking vocal lessons about 9 months ago,. I’m having a blast! I’ve blown through every goal I initially set out, and now I’m taking this as far as it can go!
I’m definitely not a great singer / guitar player, and I’m absolutely ok with that! What matters to me is that I’m constantly improving, and enjoying every second of it. Maybe one day someone else will enjoy the music I play, or maybe not. But it’s not about what anyone else likes, it’s about what I like.
If I can do it, anyone can. Go for it!
Cheers!! Hopefully one of your best life decisions. I started late in life as well, age 50. I just turned 63. It is a wonderful journey but a journey of baby steps. Keep at it brother! The planet needs your songs.

I've been playing guitar for almost 40 years, and I still suck...LOL I wish I could start all over, with all the tools that are available now! RUclips is you friend. So many lessons, it blows my mind. I get the feeling, you're gonna do just fine. Happy strumming!
Similar story to share as a 60+ guitar player. Was recovering from an operation just when the Pandemic started. Bought an Ashton Banjo 2 years earlier without knowing how to play it. In my country, one hardly hears of anyone who plays the banjo.
With the help from some well-known banjo instructors on RUclips I started learning. Thanks to amongst others Banjo Ben, Clark, David Bennett, Jim Panky, Eli G, Kristin S B, Mike Hedding, I’m now able to play many Gospel tunes and some Bluegrass tunes like Cripple Creek, Old Home Place, Wild Flowers etc albeit on a slower beats.
I’m very satisfied because there’s literally noone around who knows what a banjo is, let alone play it.
I played back up at an Alumni Campfire recently and many were shock to know how well it blended with the guitars.
Still hoping someday I can purchase a second hand and low-end Deering or Gold Tone. I’ve watched Acoustic Tuesday quite regularly too.
For everyone out there who is tired of hearing/playing "Wagon Wheel," there is someone joyfully discovering it for the very first time. Any song, played to excess, may become boring to some players; but I think all guitarists should also try to inspire new players. And the easiest way to do that is with songs with which everyone is familiar, and are easy to play and learn! Great episode!
I can recall in one of the early lessons in TAC where Tony used the Wagon Wheel progression to demonstrate alternate picking in the lesson.
It really stuck with me years later as it really helped me understand the technique and how Pick Accuracy is so important. And it is a cool sounding song I am not tired of it!!!
I agree this was a great episode.
Paul McCartney famously said that of his own songs, Yesterday would have been his favorite if he hadn't heard it so many freakin' times.
Steve Bolfing, James Taylor said the same thing about "Fire and Rain." Granted "Wagon Wheel" is no "Fire and Rain." Still a good song.
I just learned Hurt, Johnny Cash cover of NIN. I love it, working on Have you ever seen the rain by CCR now
Um,,, I have covered it a million times. I keep finding new ways to play it.
It’s you not the song…
And it’s Awsome when 50 chicks get off there asses and fill up a dance floor.
Sing along!!!
I’m kinda shallow that way. 😉
I've played a lot of gigs over the years and the important thing is to play what people want to hear. People love this song, they love Brown Eyed Girl, Margaritaville, etc. Yes, they are trite and kinda boring for us musicians, but people still love them so it is our job to keep them entertained.
Having gigged for years myself I totally get what your saying but some music and songs I just refuse to play just to please others. I also find it cool to introduce people to songs they otherwise may not have heard but end up liking I like to play stuff I also like myself as long as I do enough classics in my set it usually works out pretty good. I just totally refuse to play wonderwall and a few others I could name but refuse to play.
I played an acoustic cover show in China for 10+ years,(until Covid hit, and the music really died). At every show, I was required to play Hotel California, and Country Roads. If I didn’t play them, I didn’t get paid… simple. Yes, we must play what the people want to hear. Now, back in the States, it is the same… at gigs, I play what people want to hear, because I am getting paid. At open mics, I will play B sides, and deep cuts, because nobody bought a ticket. But, if I get 4 songs, I still play 2 that people will know / dance / sing along to.
You've got it wrong.
I was there when KETCH, not Kieth, Secor and Ctitter Fuqua, wrote and polished that song like a new dime.
I was a 44 year old guitar teacher and the 5 young members of The Route 11 Boys slept on my couch in Maine, winter 1997.
Ketch heard Bob Dylan singing "Rock Me Mama" on a documentary called "The Making of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid", and young Ketch Secor, a rabid Dylan fan that STILL has an autographed hat from stalking Dylan's bus at around 17, was thrilled seeing Dylan, Kristofferson and braless Rita Coolidge doing just a verse of Rock Me Momma around a campfire.
Ketch borrowed it for Wagon Wheel THINKING that Dylan wrote it.
When it came time for the credits it turned out that Dylan acknowledged that he'd gotten it from some obscure blues man from an old 78RPM record AFTER all of the credits were already made and royalty checks were paid.
I heard that Dylan graciously turned over his share of the royalties to the surprised and grateful blues man's estate, and that's where the matter rests.
I'm embarrassed that I've forgotten his name, and apologize for my alarming memory loss.
Thank you so much for this story!!!! It made my day.
(Dylan) said ‘I didn’t write that; Arthur Crudup did.’ Arthur Crudup said, ‘I didn’t write that; [Big] Bill Broonzy wrote that.’ Bill’s first recording of the derivative of ‘Rock Me Mama’ is around 1928. Also Arthur Big Boy Crudup in the 40s
John Prine - Paradise
Years ago l ran into a lady of 70 who just started to learn the fiddle. She blew my mind with that. Well years later as l was getting older (65) l decided to start playing guitar and singing. Now here we are 11 years later and I’m still loving it. I fo to jams and am a lead singer and rythum player in a couple of groups. The morale is it’s NEVER to late. So follow your dreams and enjoy life. And life is so much richer with music. Ps. I play a Tachamini(sp)
For my dad and brother one of our favorite camp fire songs is "In the Pines"
How did this 69 year old from North Carolina and Dylan fan not know Wagon Wheel? My favorite campfire song is Kumbaya as it is simple to play, inspirational and you can create your own lyrics. Another great AT!
Dylan never recorded it. If you’re not a country music/Old Crow fan it’s not surprising you’ve missed it.
Dylan enjoyed the old crow version so much he suggested they finish more of his songs. That’s where their newer single Sweet Amarillo came from. Definitely worth listening.
Old crow also put out a live cover album called 50 years of blonde on blonde. It’s a party! Enjoy!
My personal camp fire favourite is the late, great, and dearly missed Mr John Prine. You pick the song. Most are in a 1,4, 5 sequence (usually C,D, G-but not always). They can work in multiple tempos, can be picked or strummed and are accessible to everyone. Almost all the qualities you mention in a perfect camp song. Thx Tony
‘Hello In there’ is my go-to.
Amen to that. John Prine's songs can make you smile and make you cry. I personally love playing Souvenirs and when I have a lady it is always In Spite of Ourselves. Some of his newer songs like Summer's End and Caravan of Fools never disappoint.
All hail John Prine!
Just noticed I was featured on this episode. Thanks, Tony.
For anyone reading this, I got through that lull and now practice guitar 2-3 hours during weekdays.
Take baby steps and you WILL succeed.
YOU CAN! ¡tú puedes! 你会！

This is the first video of yours I have watched. I’m pretty new at playing guitar and I have to say this was a great lesson. I actually played Wagon Wheel! I couldn’t be happier! I’m 54 and look forward to learning so much more! Thank you
I've been playing guitar for 40 years and never heard this song until today.
That's pretty funny. Me neither.
One more.
False
Me too….
How the hell not?
The Cranberries "Linger" was my first easy song, as I grew up with an aversion to "country" music, but now I have a whole new appreciation for all types of great songs.
Knocking on Heaven's Door is my favorite campfire guitar song.
Thanks Tony, your treatment of Waggon Wheel has been an inspiration to me. I tend to just strum it but seeing how you flat and finger pick it is an eye opener
Great lesson! The progression itself is interesting enough to play over and over and not get tired of it. It’s that Em chord that breaks up the monotony.
I love how put together your videos are so high quality easy to watch
I agree with you Tony Thank You.
Ultimate campfire song=Knocking on heaven's door
Love it. Will definitely be tuning for future episodes
I’ll say it again. Wagon Wheel is this gens Freebird.
I love all the different options you call out!
Thank you!! Great lesson
16:10 You know, You really do have a great channel!
I take it for granted how good this channel is with the wealth of information in its archive as well as great new videos coming out like these.
If this channel didn't exist there would be a void on youtube that would need to be filled. But you've filled it very well and I along with many others appreciated you and your work more than you know!
To Fallon: Howbout handing the guitar to a kid in the audience? Woulda meant so much more.
I play Wagon Wheel or a version there of every 12 weeks or so. I volunteer as a member of the Cold Nose College dog training team with the Rescued program in Blairsville GA, Saving Detainees & Dogs one life at a time. The corrections officer that is in charge of the program is a very creative guy. He wrote lyrics that are in line with the experience of being in jail to the tune of Wagon Wheel. There are 4 of us that play, there are two guitars one mandolin and a fiddle, graduating detainees sing the song. Our rendition of the song is a great example of just how versatile the tune is. As for the Fallon thing when I see something like that my first thought is consider the source.
this post useless without the lyrics ;-) please...
@@ajm6409 I don't have a copy of the lyrics handy but if you go to Facebook and look for the Rescued Program you will find several videos of the song.
Thank you Tony! You Rock brother!
The ultimate campfire song is anything that is not Kumbaya.
Pssshhhht....bad case of loving you ...dun a dun a ...d dunt na
I have at least 30 friends who are guitar players and not one of us has ever played Kumbaya around a campfire or would even know how
I've always loved this song and loved hearing it as part of the intro to the Ken Burns "Country Music" doc.
It's a great song in every respect, and you nail all its qualities. The other reason every guitar player should know it is because everybody knows it and plays it. It's the 'Duelling banjos' of songs. Much played and groaned at because of it, but they are both iconic in their way.
Tony, you are an amazement! Episode 194 and you are so enthusiastic about inspiring yourself AND your listeners. It was campfire music that originally motivated me to learn to play guitar. I love to sing, I love stringed instruments (I played the violin) and I could see how guitar playing would provide a lifetime of sharing music with others. Accessibility IS a major factor. Yep, 50 years later I'm still at it! Being able to provide my own accompaniment has enable me to have so many rich experiences...lead sing-a-longs, to bring music to all kinds of venues and to write my own songs.
Now, you may wonder what brought me to Acoustic Life. Like many people, I reached a point in my guitar proficiency where I decided it was "good enough". For years I've stayed in this mindset and then...the pandemic! I'm part of the music program at my church and suddenly individually recorded music was in demand. How can I contribute? My proficiency suddenly became a limitation. I considered songs but rejected them because the guitar accompaniment was "too hard". Have you heard the adage, "when the student is ready the teacher will appear?" Concurrently, I discovered Muriel Anderson, a virtuoso musician who plays an awesome instrument...a harp guitar. The doors to my mind opened up to the idea that so much more is possible. I decided I could work on the strength and flexibility of all my fingers so that barre chords would not be hurdles that are too high. When I discovered your site, I signed up. I agree with you, consistency is key and I wish I could say I've fully engaged the habit of practicing. My choral activities are on a hiatus right now so becoming a better student is my intention. For me, it really helps to have a goal. There are songs I want to learn and share with others so, like in my campfire days, I will do what I can to make that a reality. (Plus, I want to make myself worthy of a high quality guitar. Learning about these instruments is so mind boggling!)
Tony, I think you nailed it. Wagon Wheel is a fantastic song. It is the song that I played with my sister and nephew when they were first learning guitar. My sister was playing with a capo on 2 but the song was simple enough that I could just play in A. Everybody knows the words and can sing along. The only better known chorus at this point might be Sweet Caroline.
As for Jimmy Fallon, John Hiatt says it best - "It breaks my heart to see those stars smashing a perfectly good guitar."
Great song!
You stole my thunder on comments!
I have watched every Episode of AT to date and this one really resonated with me.Simple song that just sounds good however played and Tony did a great job of explaining why.
Glad I went back and watched it again.Thanks!!!
I like singing this song, as I think most people do -but can understand how some would be tired of it. I loved learning that the chords are similar to ones from a bunch of other songs. I'm restarting my guitar journey and hope to be more consistent and songs like these will help. I like seeing the different stylings that you can do on the chords.
Always preferred old crow medicine show. Ruckers version always sounded…. Campy.
This….OCMS all day.
Old Crow Medicine Show version is the best. I thought 'Hootie' ruined it. haha I was pissed when I heard him redo Old Crow
First time watching, loved it. Gracias Brian
I have never heard of this song until this video..born and raised in nyc been playing guitar for 40 years
I agree with you about Wagon wheel, everyone loves to sing along with the chorus, another similar great campfire song is Country Roads,and here in Galway Ireland...The Galway Girl... Steve Earle
Thanks 🙏
Our favorite one is Whitehouse Road by Tyler Childers. Always end the firepit/backyard sessions with it
The ultimate camp fire song is "Country Roads"
Koombyah?
@@TheSpud1129 No
@@alexheartkill personally I'm partial to some mumble rap or anime openings
Absolutely and you can put your hometown in place of West Virginia....almost heaven, Pennsylvania, Blue Ridge Mountains.....
"Wagon Wheel" - 50+ years old and it's new to me. So, no cliché here. Thank you for teaching it to me.
I never thought Jimmy Fallon was funny. Let's just confirms what I already already thought.
Wagon Wheel is one of the first songs I learned to play. I love playing it still.
I've been trying to learn electric guitar for 7 years on and off but started at 55, but of late i've been doing finger picking etc started with Zorba and Smoke Stack Lightening and loving this, I stumbled across your sight accidently, and have to watch it constantly now, so easy to follow
Just jump in to acoustic guitar world, Love your channel!!!
Thanks Tony
What a great observation
I loved how you speak. Your timber and cadence was perfect. Just found you and subscribed to learn more
Wow, the short video of Luca Stricagnoli was inspiring and I wanted to hear more. After watching a few more on RUclips, he plays guitar more like a piano with right and left hands playing different parts and some times asynchronously . I have a hard enough time with right / left synchronized. His "Sweet Home Alabama" cover is my favorite so far. Thanks for featuring and sharing Luca with us!
Your singing gives me hope.
By the way, love Acoustic Tuesday, brings up the enthusiasm; great group of friendly members. You guitar site and training is by far the best I’ve experienced. Glad I gave it a shot, I’m in my second year as a member. I have a Bluegrass band I’m in, Ocotillo Rain, we give all proceeds to charity, just love to play. Over 6 years we have given $30,000 to charities. I’ve been mainly a rhythm guitar player and singer. Through your site I’ve added embellishments and some flatpicking in my playing. I ordered today a Paul Beard Squareneck Devo 47 Resonator; you’ve given me confidence in my playing. Thanks Tony!
I guess I'm not sophisticated enough to look down on Wagon Wheel.
Same
It's not about being sophisticated, you've just been spared hearing this song a thousand times a day every single day by new and learning musicians, not bashing on em either it's just everyone usually just starts here so you hear it a bunch and start to hate it, almost makes you gain sympathy for like those Taliban kinda guys who were forced to listen to toxic by Brittany spears on repeat for upwards of 10 hours, almost
excellent!
Country Roads... Sings to the soul
Tony I never heard of Wagon Wheel so I had to look this song up first dude I played was Darius Rucker pretty cool song . Cheers Tony. I never thought Jimmy Fallon was funny. Only Late Late show was funny was Johnny Carson.
Because Rucker was already famous as a rocker with Hootie & Fishies , his attempt at modern country , recieved wide airplay both on modern country outlets , and mainstream .
But Old Crow is definitely the Iconic and definitive version .
Its never a chore for me to play guitar i love it, my guitar is my therapy. I really like to play BE LIKE THAT - 3 DOORS DOWN Totally an audience bringer. Campfire Hit Song for sure.
Hi Tony, I've got a favorite campfire song, "Desert Skies", by the Marshall Tucker band. Also my two sons became Cub Scouts and also aged out in Boy Scouts and we brought along a campfire guitar made in Lafayette, Louisiana. Composite Acoustic is the builder and what a wonderful instrument it has been. It has weathered quite well. I've always had fun in campfire settings. This setup is best !
I LOVE your little goalie statue
This lesson triggered a lightbulb moment for me. Once I started thinking of songs that shared this progression or something really similar, damn...
great great stuff there. Also, those are some very killer tattoos. Great artwork!
I've suggested this by email, and I hope you do an episode on it - or even a few:
Picks. That's it. Picks. Just about different shapes, sizes, brands, etc. I'd especially love to hear an episode on it, since I collect picks to have a bit of variety to my tone 🎸
This is 40 years old and I just heard it
I love this song and never grow tired of it. My favourite version is done by Matt Andersen. In fact his version was so good OCMS invited him to sing it with them. Thankful for RUclips, because he won't play it anymore at his shows ... lol
People still request it at our gigs, great song!
I learned the bass, mandolin, and electric guitar for Wagon Wheel.
I Love your goalie bobblehead!
The Unicorn song is my favorite. It's fun to sing the chorus over and over. Green alligators, long neck geese,....
Even though these two songs are not my ultimate campfire pics I always get several thank-yous and compliments when I perform these songs on solo acoustic, Two by The Who. Squeeze Box and the kids are alright, also like to point out your speaking about Tempo and what you posted between 7:15 and 8:40 on style. Great information for all of us. Thankyou, Tony
Hi Tony. It's been quite a while since I had a campfire experience (I'm 64 now...) But "there was a time, back in my prime" (Thanks to Toby Keith for that one), I had some success with Uriah Heep's "Sunrise", believe it or not... I still play it now and then, and have tweeked it into a fingerpicking style song, just for fun. And yeah, that Very Special Girl I played for way back then, is still with me, as my wife, 40+ years later. And so is the guitar, a 1977 Ibanez dreadnought.
Thanks for breaking down "Wagon Wheel", I personally didn't know that Dylan wrote it! That's a cool thing to know. Favorite campfire song Dylan's "Blowin In The Wind"!!! And R.I.P Martin HD 28, and 3 wags of the finger to Falon!!! : (
Hey champs. “From little things big things grow” by Paul Kelly is my favourite Aussie campfire Song. Same simple chorus to verse cord layout and a good story to go with it.
Thought my self how to play, no lessons and began playin for my church after just a few months. Took many hours of hard work and always enjoyable. It’s been a little over 1 1/2 years and now I’m working on finger picking. I tell people it takes hard work and always start simple but you will learn.
It's funny, I only just heard this song and started to learn it on the guitar. I had never heard it before and had no idea it had already become cliché.
The reason pre-war acoustic guitars are so awesome is the wood. Our country was historically dry in the era. I.e - dirty 30's? Wood that has grown in dry climates has a tight and straight grain. Great for acoustic instruments. The dryer the climate, the tighter the grain, the better the tone.
Awesome production. Liked, subscribed, and bell enabled! I believe the advice regarding consistency and routine playing guitar is more valuable than in fact it is. If someone thinks this is a cliche think twice. I've played guitar in my twenties and after 28 I just stopped playing. Now with 37, I'm practicing again. Playing guitar now does not feel quite the same as in the old times (nowadays feels like a chore) but when I try to play a piece of music following good principles playing slow, paying attention to the details for the pick, hand movement, you know breaking down the problem and focusing on the weaker points ignoring the fear of committing a mistake, I've got small but consistent progress. And that brings a bit of the good sparkle back of playing in those old times. Thanks to Tony and the community!
Best thing is you’ve learned a million songs with that chord progression next one on list being let it be :) great work Tony
FREEBIRD!
Lol...the intro to Freebird is also 1-5-6m-4.
Ultimate campfire song: Back Home Again, J Denver
Many songs follow this chord progression (I-V-vi-IV-I-V-IV-I) or some slight variation. "Let it be" comes to mind as well as a few southern rock songs.
That git look dope !
Must admit I love wagon wheel still
favorite campfire song// hard to pick one but it will surely be a 3 or 4 chord song like Wagon wheel. Or maybe a one chord song like Clyde ( written by J J Cale and made famous by Waylon Jennings). The verse is a d chord with an instrumental break between verses where ir rocks back and fourth between c and d. Anyone can play it and anyone can experiment with different ways to play that d to keep is from sounding boring
a couple of 2 chord songs I love to play are both by Waylon. Waymores's Blues ( I, IV chords) and Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way (I, IV) rocking back and fourth to a steady 4/4 beat.
Love Wagon wheel and it was the first song I could sing and play at the same time. However, Ultimate campfire song is Ripple.
My "go to" song to get people involved ❤😂
Bad Moon rising is a good campfire and shouting Song for me😀
I agree with what you said about guitar playing is consistent to get better. I started pretty young myself about 10 years of age. I had dreams about becoming famous by singing or song writing, I am 60 now and still love to play guitar. However, due to loss of feelings in my fingers and 2 surgeries on my ulnar nerve in my elbow I decided on purchasing 2 classical guitars, I bought a Cordoba CH-10 LH Luthier which was very expensive and well worth it. I also purchased a Woods classical, both of these guitars suit my needs because the strings are plastic which keep my fingers from going numb. I'm not famous nor am I as good as I would like but, I play these daily, I switch out every other day because I love the sound from both of them. I mainly wrote you a comment because I wanted to ask you if you would cover this Wagon Wheel song more in depth, you are correct about Bob Dylan wrote it, and we know Darius Rucker recorded it, what an enjoyable song. Thanks and keep up the great work!
awesome video, these points really landed with me. Also, ready for our blackhawks to change the logo.
I grew up in South Africa and had _never_ heard Wagon Wheel until I joined a group organized out of the local guitar shop in Toronto (I'd been playing 45 years by then.) Of course it's dead easy but I mostly finger pick an 8-string baritone and it harmonises really well - especially in G.
Wagon Wheel isn't my favourite campfire song - that probably goes to S&G's Homeward Bound. I play it in G - yes it's dead easy but you need to play songs you audience knows and can sing. Another one that works is a slightly modified Sunny Afternoon by The Kinks. And then there's Desperado and Stray Cat Strut. All good, as long as it's fun.
Tony! I love your content. I’ve played guitar for over a year and I’m very happy with my results thus far. I even found a group of experienced guitar players to jam with every Sunday in Parker, Colorado. These guys are really good and each one brings their own style and talent to the club that I can try to learn from. Anyways I have a question regarding Defense #4 - can you direct me to a video or create one that explains the different strumming styles (and title each) ie Flat picking, chicken picking, etc ? Thanks! - Rob from Colorado
Works real well on a 3 string cigar box guitar too!
Here’s a good one you should make a list of guitars first to however many you want to do and what makes you ready for your next guitar
I light a candle.
My Favorite Campfire song is Downtown by Petula Clark...what?
I am not experienced enough (18 months) to say it is or is not that Wagon Wheel is an over played song, however I think for beginners it’s an amazing song to learn and play. It’s fun and most generations know it.
Hey Tony! long time listener, first time caller. Wagon Wheel is also my fav campfire jam, but I always replace the lyrics with the theme to Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Always gets a laugh, and everyone still sings along. I even throw in a chorus or two of Wagon Wheel. I first heard it played that way at an acoustic punk show I attended, but unfortunately cannot remember the name of the musician. Just tried to find a video and could not find his recording, but other people have recorded videos of it played with Fresh Prince lyrics. Give it a shot sometime, it's fun!
I can almost hear "Don't stop Believing"
We had a Hymns and Hops night at a local brewery. After the hymns, we did a few secular songs and sure enough, Wagon Wheel,was the last song…and the hit of the night.
As a small venue owner, who has been tempted to post an old-timey wooden sign that stated "No Wagon Wheel" behind my bar, I really appreciated this episode. You gave me a little spark back for appreciating the song and there are some bands who play my place who really do a joyful job of it. Thank you for always being a positive voice on the internet. Unrelated side note: If you haven't already thought of this, Klos travel guitars are the perfect guitar to leave out in your home if you have a toddler in the house.
The campfire song that works best for me is "Knocking on Heaven Door"", for most of the reasons Tony likes "Wagon Wheel".
Hey Tony have you thought about doing an Acoustic Tuesday about how you can learn to build a guitar? I have always thought it would be fascinating to learn how these luthiers build guitars and maybe build my own. As usual great show amd I look forward to the next one. Been with you since the beginning and you just keep hitting home runs with your content. The different styles of playing, "Wagon Wheel," are spot on and I've used a couple of those techniques! #youknowyoureaguitargeekwhen you wanna build your own guitar! Cheers!
I also have never heard this song before this clip
