fanvid for David Bromberg peforming Mr. Bojangles

One of those songs that it's difficult to do a bad version of.  Jerry Jeff Walker (genius) wrote it, and performed a great version of it, of course.  And the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band  covered it and had a hit with it, (that I also love).  And Sammy Davis Jr. took it and made it his theme, which really does work, and his version is absolutely reeking of truth by a guy who has been there.  And because of that, it might be, objectively,  the best version.  But I think Bromberg may beat him out, at least for me.  The song's perspective is from a sympathetic observer, and he captures that perfectly.
