My hero was Uncle Everett Actually he didn't drink. The pic is my Delta Tennessee Flat top box. But Everett spent 3 years going to music shops. He spent 3yrs. picking up Martins, Gibson's you name it. One day he tried a Kay. it had best tone I ever heard. From that day on he played the Kay. Oh he use to drink a beer once in a while, his girl friend was killed in car accident about 1947. Oh he dated, but many yrs later, he never did get married. He passed 2006. he was 93yrs

Keith Wallin: @cash. Love this song and you gave it very much justice, Cash! Glad you enjoyed a long relationship with your Uncle Everett. I've played Gibson, Epiphones, Ovations and Fenders through the years. My first guitar was a Harmony Sovereign. Don't remember ever hearing a Kay but, I'll take your word for it cuz you've been around music all your life like me. Very much enjoyed your take on this classic....:-)
