I’ve always loved this song, and especially appreciate the stripped-down, back porch arrangement that Lynyrd Skynyrd recorded, with just the vocals and the resonator slide guitar. I’ve gotten a few requests for it lately, and it seemed like a perfect song to record on the back porch, and a storm slowly moving in. I’ve been diggin’ using the shot glass as a slide lately, as it changes my technique slightly and forces me to think of the slide a little differently. Plus, I think they are the best sounding glass slides, since they have such thick walls, which increases the sustain and resonance over a traditional glass slide. …plus if you are ever playing at a bar, you know you’ve always got a slide on hand!
