| | I did pretty good with following those chords. Any chance I can get a transcription to check my work on?

| | Hehe, that was cool! I'm not familiar with this style of music (though the chord progression sounds familiar) so I was wondering: who should I listen to in order to get a better understanding of this style? |

But here's a sample of Texas style fiddling with swing guitar rhythm playing...
If you can stand the "Aahhs" that Bob Wills throws in all his tunes, there is some great guitar playing scattered throughout the old Texas Playboys recordings. Also check out Asleep At The Wheel. |

| | I have dug Marl O'Connor since I first heard him in the early 80's.
He is a smoking guitarist as well. I think I have seen him play mandolin to. |
