My last comment was actually referring to the 80's version where one of the Smothers brothers talks over the intro.

Why do people talk over intros? It's like it's not an important part of the song or something. Anyway, I love this song and would love to own that Oscar Tellar he's playing.

The Hugo Montenegro arrangement is a mish mash of instruments and voices. Personally I don't care for it. The Mason Williams original arrangement is better...more "classical" if you will.

karateboy909: You're on crack! Sure anyone can practice this piece and play it. But can just anyone create it in the first place? Mason created it. Think about it. Hypershadow647: The orchestra is part of the original composition. It is signature of the era, and the rounding out of the piece. Clapton just covered it his way.

The Tommy Emmanuel version is just *stroking* himself. Tommy's a very good player, but what he adds doesn't do anything to the song to make it better or just as good as Willwams' version...it's kinda like he's showing off too much. He's like the Liberace of guitar...too much filler, not enough substance. Adding notes doesn't make a song better. Williams' version is fairly simple musical-wise, but it's got great vibe & that's what makes it work so well.

Jeez, the orchestra totally kills the whole thing. I like Eric Clapton's version the best, just straight up acoustic, and better sound quality.

Eric Clapton never recorded this. It's often listed under Clapton on the download sites, but he never actually recorded it. I know the version you mean. Mason Williams plays that version too
