Wm Hansell 3rd: Eulogy for Wm Hansell Jr

I haven't recorded anything in a very long time but I had a quiet moment late tonight so here's a midnight cover of Folsom Prison Blues (Johnny Cash) in D minor on my 2010 Santa Cruz Vintage Jumbo acoustic, unedited, single take on my phone (...and by single take I mean the one I didn't screw up after the 30 previous tries.)

Broadcast on 12/11/12 by KALW 91.7FM: 
"Now here’s something you don’t hear every day – a Guitar Pull. The term seems to come from the Great Depression when a group would get together to play songs. Often only one player would have a guitar, so they’d “pull” it from each other to have a turn.  Bill Hansell has hosted 16 previous Guitar Pulls. There’s always a featured performer, but also time for others to play. And they’ll probably share an instrument if you ask nicely – no need to pull. Hansell’s 17th Guitar Pull takes place Friday, December 14th at The Sleeping Lady in Fairfax, starting about 9pm."
