Don, By the time I did that concert at Lyman King's place I was doing the song in a whole other key with different chords (key of G) instead of how I recorded it (key of C) ---mainly because my voice had sunk from various medical procedures. Those new chords gave the song a whole different feel.

And it was my old uncle's gun where he had to change the lock, the stock and the barrel too. Other than that, it was the same gun. So it couldn't've been your grandad's axe. ;-)

That old LP is still available from Sandy as a custom cassette.
