Well, I guess it's pretty different. I learned the song originally from George Gibson but in that 2010 video I had only ever heard Gibson play little pieces of the song and then only a couple of times since I was a little kid following him around. So I didn't have a clear idea in my head of how it was done--so in that video I attacked the song in somewhat of a "Rock & Roll" mindset and just cut loose. This more recent performance: <a href="https://youtu.be/t0neny6upJ0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/t0neny6upJ0</a> and especially this latest one: <a href="https://youtu.be/Z0d0e_llv3U" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/Z0d0e_llv3U</a> are a lot more thought-out.
