His casual, clean-cut virtuosity on the "flattop" (nonelectric) guitar is little less than awesome as he drives through such standards as Black Mountain Rag and Nashville Blues. His voice curls reedily and winsomely around Matty Groves, reminding some of the young Burl Ives. The only difference: Watson sings on pitch...

Only after some circuitous antique-automobile and bicycle chases and other mandatory sequences for period comedy does launch time occur-accidentally sending Jeffries...
