AHA, I knew you could pull it off. Unlike my 'best friend' Donny , I don't usually put pressure on people to 'do stuff' on synthzone, but when I heard the Johnny Cash version, I knew I wanted to hear YOU do it. The simple style you chose was just perfect for doing this song in the traditional way. BTW, I agree with you about Johnny Cash's voice starting to go downhill on this song -- but the feeling is still there. Sparky made me check out the Emmylou Harris version. Excellent. Normally, I'm not a huge fan of 'country' STYLE music but I like this song so much and it lends itself to so many varied styles. It seems to go especially well with Country styles. I'm guessing Don Mason could do a decent job with it too.

Thanks again for taking this on. I knew you'd do a great job with it.

Just curious about something. Would this song be to 'morbid' to ever play in a nursing home? It's pretty but under the right (wrong?) circumstances, could produce some tears in an elderly audience.
