So, besides the original, what would be the 3 BEST versions of this song?

I have a few students, who want to learn this song. And I want to really check out some of the better versions, by other artists.

Yeah!!

Jimmy Olander......there's a tele monster that no one talks much about. When I was gigging the line dance circuit, I just about went nuts trying to figure out WFT he was playing on "Me Oh My Sweet Baby".........turns out he had a double Glaser bender......lol.

I'd love to have a double Glaser bender.Those licks are damn near impossible w/o it.Love a Little Stronger is one of the slickest bender work I've heard.
Love a Little Stronger

Another couple of great clips!

Man, I LOVE Matt Rawlings' Piano playing. And Mark O'Conner? WHEW!

The "Twitty-Approved" hair Brent is sporting, rivals Marty's!

I found a pretty good version on YouTube. Here's that link:

And here's the TAB for that guy's solo:

Any more?

Did Jim Campilongo, Danny Gatton, or Roy Buchannan ever cover this? I'd be interested in hearing those, if they exist.

Willie Nelson does it live at every show with his guitarist, Jody Payne, singing it. Jody toured with Hag for about 3 years in the late 60's. Sounds real close to the original, but they jam on it a little, so there might be some extra cool licks crammed in there somewhere.
