Blue Smoke (Merle Travis / Tommy Emmanuel) - Cover

Whenever Tommy plays Cannonball Rag he likes to add a few other songs as well, turning one song in a full blown "high speed" medley. This tune often pops up in that medley, and of all the songs that he burns through this one is the easiest to get into your fingers. Getting to that high speed will take time however.

Guitar used:
Mayson MS7, Standard Tuning
Recording: a pair of Neumann 184's through an Apogee Quartet
