Credit to you for having the guts to do that and share it on here, but it's just not a good idea to try to change up Rocky Top. Your version doesn't work at all. Also, you misspelled Sweet as Swwet.

It’s good for what you were going for. If you play it at mid-to-late set in TN it will have a more positive reaction than what you are getting here.

Bear in mind the folks on this board generally dislike anything that breaks from tradition. See uni threads or even debating the “woo” in Rocky Top.

Sorry, I just didn't love it. Hard to sway people away from the classics.

It's why you haven't seen alternate arrangements of The Star Spangled Banner. There are some songs you just shouldn't touch.

I like Jimi Hendrix’s version of the Star Spangled Banner… pretty dang good alternate arrangement

 

[TennTom]

I made it through 7 seconds

Longer than me.

Back in '72, Dane (I believe it was), the Bryant's son, wanted to try and put out a Credence Clearwater style release of Rocky Top. He asked me and my band to come up to his studio in Hendersonville and work on some cuts.

Well, long story short, we tried our best but everyone agreed that there was no altered version of Rocky Top that would ever touch the original.

Still ain't.

 

[Delmar]

Dear Lord, that is horrendous. Of course, I love bluegrass and hate anything associated with what they try to pass off as country music these days. That rendition is a double abomination.

First and last post by Mr.Marc Ingram ladies and gentlemen!

Well once again someone is trying to fix something that’s not broke

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Just stop it! GBI

That's a musical representation of these uniforms

The comments are 1,000x better than whatever I just tried to listen to.

Checked it out; checked it off.

Horrid

 

[NO SIR EEE]

You really tried Marc, you really did, but in the end it’s time to put up the guitar and walk away.

Not clicking
