Workin' Man Blues was written by Merle Haggard. The performance is from August 18, 2023 at the Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach. Featuring Mark Cassidy on banjo and Paul Cartwright on violin.
Excellent work. I had the honor of playing with Lee, Carter and the Morgan County ramblers. I was on five string, and Li of course was the nephew of June Carter I think but one of the Karter family. We had Charlie Eisenhower on the fiddle and we played bluegrass every Saturday night down at Pats tavern in Mooresville Indiana for over five years. Lee was a truck driver and ultimately his back went out and he was confined to a wheelchair. I still played five string every day and I’m here in Flint Michigan. We’re starting a revival of sorts. That would be great if you would come here.🎉
WOW! Seeing is believing! What an incredible take on an old Haggard song! We also do this cover, but how u reworked it, the flow, etc, just amazing. Really great job by all involved! Keep up the great work!
