He also wrote Dueling Banjos. Not a bad couple of songs. Royalties are surely great on those two. There's a great history of Arthur on video here:

Lots of guys picked up a guitar for the first time becaue of Guitar Boogie. It was great having him at CAAS and getting to see one more historical musical icon before his passing.
