As an 850 Norton commando owner for 48 years, I take no offense of it having no soul like a Vincent 52. I absolutely love this version of this wonderful song. I do think it’s best appreciated by a Brig bike owner!

Love this song, one of my all-time favorites. Love Del's version for its urgency, Richard Thompson's for it's more wistfull reminiscing. love elements in this version, We actually get to see and hear Red Molly flirting with James in the beginning, adding a thunderbolt, with "shotgun blast to the chest" and, of course, what bluegrass does that very few do anymore in popular music...harmonies. Great stuff all around thank-you.
