    Default Grandfather's Clock

    I heard a kickin' instrumental version of Grandfather's Clock on bluegrass junction the other day, but i forgot who played it.

    I looked through my collection and found a very pretty version by Grisman on Tone Poems, but I need something with a little more jump to it.

    You know of any good recorded versions of this tune?

    The Seldom Scene, Live At The Cellar Door. Features the bass, and they kick it up a notch or 2 towards the end. JD burns it.

    Jack Tottle cross-picks it somewhere, perfect.

    good call on the seldom scene version. As soon as I heard the false start, I knew it was the same version on the radio. Thanks for all the other suggestions, guys.

    Oh yeah, doesn't the banjo man drop his picks or something? Funny. That whole album is so great.
