Good points Claymore. Lends a credability to Martin Gibsons points, no? One thing tho-I think the flipside of Tom Dooley was Ruby Red not MTA. This would be a little known trivia fact of course. MTA was a single on its own after it showed up on the At Large album which was the first one Mr. David Guard played a Seeeger longneck Vega on and thus popularized them more than Mr. Seeger ever did or Bob Gibson for that matter.
