Banjo and Guitar and Vocal. Sometimes you don't want to look back. this si now a tidied up version of this track 18/3/09

2009 Record Production Month Challenge offering. Very pleased with the collective results. Jason Kruk said I should write a song called Funglebung. It sounded too dirty... so I changed it.
