Salty Dog Blues

Salty dog blues has become one of those tunes I love to play. It's become a practice tune which lets me work around the finger board. This version combines open chord forms with four finger chords and barre chords and I like to play it till I've had enough - or everyone else has.
The chords are a ragtime progression E7, A, D7, G. It's a Flatt & Scruggs standard but I like the more bluesy and ragtime versions by artists like Mississippi John Hurt.
