Tune of the week: Sittin' On Top of the World
This is my version of the Mississippi Sheiks' "Sittin' On Top of the World". It is a classic blues tune, recorded many times by Bob Wills, Bill Monroe, Doc Watson and countless others. I play it as a country blues in the key of D. My version is a little advanced, but I also show you how you can play it more simply. I also talk some music history and reminisce about the best concert I ever attended and what a great guy Eddie Stubbs was.
