How bout some fiddle? Unreal playing for a 100% functioning human, out of this world good for a guy who was born 100% blind and is 80% deaf in one ear. Dude absolutely goes off.

I have never been a big fiddle fan. But this is rippin.

Rank these versions. I am thinking Tommy walks away with it, followed by Mr. Campbell.

I like Mason!
His imagination takes the song to a higher high. It sort of sounds like a rock opera!

It is his song too so you got to give him credit for that.

I totally agree. It is a fantastic song, and played well is one of my all time favorites.

I can certainly see where you are coming from on that. As with most songs, it is hard to beat the original! For me, it's the soul that Tommy puts in it. Banging away on his guitar like that makes me giggle with happiness. It's like he doesn't even need a percussion section.

This works.

Since the Winter Solstice is a Holy Day of Obligation for me, I'm listening to Bach.

I had a computer game years ago, Dark Castle, that began with this. Whenever I hear it it makes me think of that game.

Thanks for making me remember. Had hours and hours of fun on the game.

When the Hammond Organ intro started I automatically thought of Deep Purple, but I didn't realize what the song was until the intro had finished, lol. Epic song....
