I checked the 2009 version. I'm learning this tune right now for a band. I very much respect your opinion because music is wholly subjective and the listener cannot be wrong, and neither can your opinion, or anyone else's . From a guitarist's point of view, the lead in this version is more technical and and is better executed by the player. The guitarist in the 2009 version used the sliding octaves almost exclusively. In this version, the phrasing is flawless. The lead breaks out of the sliding octaves seamlessly and goes into a more traditional country solo while still complementing the vocal melody. This guy is top shelf material for sure. I'm intrigued enough to try to find more of his soloing work and try to emulate some of it. Mainly it's his phrasing I like the most. But in the end I will probably try to incorporate some of this, some of the lead from the 2009 version, and some of my own creativity into whatever it is I end up playing with the band. Thanks for the reference to the 2009 version. Take care.
@@JeromyBranch Thx for the comment. I'm only a listener, don't know much about technique. It's a matter of preference, as you rightly stated. I prefer Mark Knopfler to Eric Clapton, for example. The guitarist in the newer version, which you seem to like more, sounds for me like a typical Nashville session musician, very country. Jerry Miller's style blends better with Eileen Jewell's genre, in my opinion - more rocky, yet sensitive. And sparse, which I like. They worked together for many years. I recommend, if you haven't heard it yet, "Green River", "Santa Fe", "Shakin' all over", "Fading memory" and others. Anyway, I wish you luck in working out your own style and sound. Don't know your age, but you will probably find that your tastes change with time and the amount of music you listen to.
@@belphegor9161 thanks man. The lady singer we have is picking the tunes and she loves Eileen and we are already doing a couple other tunes by her. Nice stuff. I'm old so I'm probably over opinionated lol. I like the Jerry Miller playing too. Sounds kinda like a country Neil Young to me. Sloppy but at the same time excellent. It's a hard style to dupe. I agree that the younger lead player is definitely a session player. It's hard work doing nothing but recording other people's music. I bet he's happy with the Eileen gig he has now.
I could listen to Eilen Jewell all day long.
All day dude
That's pretty much how I've spent today.
Wonderful song -- waiting to be written. Beautiful.
The top female artist in my book.
Wish she was coming to Kansas City.
This song is a masterclass. That solo.

The 2009 version (also on YT) is superior, fresh and stylish, with Jerry Miller's sensitive guitar playing.
