I could watch Albert play the guitar 24 hours a day. What a treasure.

Albert Lee is the best, I didn't know he could sing so well. His solo licks are a libaray of licks.

Started as a country tune 7 versions in Tony Russell's Country Music Records 1921-42. 2 of those are by cajun bands. The big national hit was lat 1940s as a polka by Frankie Yankovic. As you say, its stayed in lots of bands books.

Nothin better than a guitar virtuoso who hasn't lost the idea of what a great song is. Not surprising considering his past with Everly Brothers, Clapton, Harris....etc

He teamed up with the best

Just want to add my kudos to Albert and Jim Cox. I've listened to this piece literally hundreds of times over the years and I never get tired of it. One of the best piano solos of all time. Leaves me hungry to hear more. Albert Lee's best solo I've ever heard and it showcases Albert's wonderful voice, not what he's best known for, but a great voice even compared with many famous singers. But most of all, I see many comments in agreement with a friend of mine who took Albert's master class. My friend said, "He's like the coolest Grandpa a person could imagine." By many accounts, a genuine, lovable guy.

gotta say that piano solo is killer

Albert is a unique genius of his genre!!

Well, first that piano just SHINES...and then comes ALBERT! HOLY ####!!!!

not only plays, his singing is very soulful to me. In the five years he toured with Eric, he used to sing wonderfully powerfull. Both

Pretty hard to steal the show from Albert though.

A pure master class in music

I first heard Albert on the album "Luxury LIner" in 1977. Emmy-Lou had assembled what has to be one of the finest bands for that album, and Albert was the rock on which it was built. And he sang back-up with Emmy-Lou!

I will never tire of this particular recording of this tune. I heard it for the first time more than 20 years ago and it still sounds amazing! Albert Lee is pure treasure!

I've been listening to Mr. Albert Lee since 1979 fell in love with his playing the first time I heard him truly one of those rare great guitar players who doesn't use any kind of guitar gadgets boxes he plays clean right from the amp and his god given fingers. He's my over all best guitar picker and he has a pretty good voice to... Never met him but he sure seem like a really down to earth guy...

Instead of comparing, enjoy both. Albert is more "fingerish", while Eric is a better songwriter and singer, and plays more styles. Enjoy the 5 years they were together (79-83), there are many gigs bootlegs in Yt

Saw Albert in Leek Staffs, in 2011. As good as the first time I saw him in Hackney in 1963. Brilliant

Saw Albert last year. Amazing! Got to meet him after the show, very nice man. Going to see him again in November at Hunstanton. Lots of tickets left. Treat yourself!

So melodic and well played..love that picking style

Albert Lee is the finest guitarist in Nashville as far as I'm concerned. All these guys playing new country are fine players but every one of then is trying to be Albert Lee and there's only one of him. And what a wonderful tune. Someone commented that this sounded a little jazzy and on this version, it likely just the changes. I've seen Albert do this tune jazzy and it would have a lot of jazz players quaking in their boots. He can play anything and everything and play it well.
