- New Country Music Hall of Fame inductee Ricky Skaggs tears up a night-time performance this year at ROMP. After spending a little time playing odes to the bluegrass tradition Ricky breaks out his guitar and performs some of his favorites alongside other great songs from the country music tradition.
Bluegrass is the treasure U.S. has never exposed. I hope Americans will one day realize that bluegrass is their real culture and treat it with more respect, not only in Tennessee, but everywhere. Real rich, encultured and fantastic genre. Love from Italy.
I couldn’t agree more! I’m proud to be from the mountains where this music was born.
Too many Americans look down their noses at bluegrass lovers.
Del Yeah !
you all probably dont care but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Case Kaiser Instablaster :)
THIS is America! True Grit. And not a cuss word to be heard.
Skaggs was given the most talent and he’s managed it well.
Hearing Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder is like a trip to the Bluegrass All-star Game.
To see Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder in concert is an experience that you'll not soon forget... Each member of the group is an extremely talented soloist and together they play some of the best and truest bluegrass you'll ever hear!! They're the best in the land!!
On my bucket list for sure.
I saw them live and they were great and they seem to get better with age. I have always heard that it takes a lifetime to master the bluegrass roll and now that Ricky is about 70, he is about to get it figured out.
best period ♥
Mr Goodman I too can attest to your statement. Best collection of musicians I have ever seen live. You are right on.
Personally I can't say ANY one group or soloist is the BEST, there's just too many examples of awesomeness out there. Union station and Rhonda Vincent and the rage are two examples that come to mind, with that being said these folks round out the Holy Trinity of bluegrass
I'm Latina born in Florida with Guatemalan parents and I LOVE BLUEGRASS!! I wish I could dance it.
Fantastic. Thanks 😊
Ho my God it’s so good. I’m French and I have seen Ricky a long time ago in Paris and Miami. We miss him in France, we don’t have Country or Bluegrass concerts 😢
I have enjoyed Bluegrass music since I was 10 years of age, I would sneak downstairs late at night ,turn on the battery radio very low so not to wake my parents, I would listen to WWVA West Virginia Bluegrass music It was just the BEST, and yes America should be proud of it and encourage it to the fullest. LK from Canada. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
American music has such variety! Bluegrass, jazz, blues, and rock, to name some more popular genres. Are we allowed to count the New World Symphony?
And I remember seeing Ricky when he played with Earl Scruggs, and he had nice short hair!!! LK from Canada ❤❤❤❤😊
I've grown up all my life with country / western music in our home. I have alot of favorites. But bluegrass was not as much in our home. 😢 When Ricky skaggs came out in the 80's with honey, country boy,... I loved his sound. Saw hin in the early 90's at the San Joaquin county fair one summer & he was smoking hot on the stage. As i grew up more, many of the songs i loved that was covered by Porter wagoner,... Were old bluegrass songs. Mind you i grew up in CA, so the Bakersfield sound, Texas swing,.. was more prevalent.
Today, i now live in Kentucky ❤ and to have real country & bluegrass around me is the best.
😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
A lot of people don't fully grasp what Ricky did for country music. It was all about Urban Cowboy in the early 80s. Thank you Skaggs, Strait, and Whitley
Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder are Absolutely Awesome Bluegrass is the best music ever
The flat top guitarist is from another galaxy!!!
Bluegrass doesn't get much better than this. Ricky, his musicians and singers give a flawless performance.
you damn right!
He deserves the Hall of Fame!
This video can never go away, and shall live forever...
I doubt there’s an honest person in the world who can listen to Ricky and not have their body tapping along somehow, someway. He just makes your body have to get up and celebrate it can move.
Winfield Kansas, walnut Valley Festival, one of America's best bluegrass, folk, celtic music festival for 52 years!!
Ricky Skaggs still brings it home even in 2022!!
I met Ricky at the Three Rivers Arts Festival (in Pittsburgh, PA) a few years back. He took the time to stick around for quite a while after the show and talk to fans, including me and my family. Very nice guy.
Wow!!! Amazing i like it.
How could 38 people not like this? Total brilliance.
they saw the electric guitar
Can't get much better than Ricky Skaggs. The first song I ever heard was Don't Cheat in Our Hometown. I was hooked. Then he met The Whites and luckily married Sharon. He,s just a good guy and Great Artist.
I have tickets to see Ricky Skaggs in Mt. View AR in July at the Ozark Folk Center !!! First time seeing him Live !! Really Looking Forward to it !!!!
How was the show??
I thought I hated Bluegrass, until I heard Bruce Hornsby, Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder's live album Cluck Ol' Hen, and was blown away by the musicianship of these performers. Man, can they play!
I've never heard better.
Ricky Scags is the best
Ricky skaggs is my very favorite bluegrass singer😊
Saw them live at the Ryman Auditorium many years ago. Most awesome show I’ve ever seen.
Дивовижні хлопці.Слухаю Вас майже щодня та отримую неймовірне задоволення від Вашої музики. Губна гармошка в останній композиції завжди доводить мене до сліз,гармоністу окремий респект.
That Ricky sure puts on a great show
Awesome band. I am Australian and never heard of these guys before 👍
There instrumentals aren’t on another level
The guitar player is top notch he never missed a lick ,I don’t think .
He was hitting it so fast I couldn’t tell
But I could tell what he hit was clear as a bell
Ricky has an eye for talent
Congratulations Ricky
If they are giving anything to old school ,you surely deserved it ,which you do !
Glad they are going to give it while you’re still kicking
I'm a rocker from the seventies and I love this stuff. Skaggs is awesome as is his band!
Paul does the best version of the Kentucky Waltz ever done throughout the ages!
Kentucky Waltz breaks my heart, in a good way. Especially this version.
I literally saved this video just for this version of paul Brewsters rendition of Kentucky waltz!
That's a lot of talent on one stage.
The only reason I gave an up vote was because you can't leave a thousand up votes!!!!!
just saw them in Des Moines....killer. Chops , unreal,...!
New country is the death of the land, true talent will always shine shadows on them
I love bluegrass music and I just love ole Ricky, have since I was a youngin.
Old Barns at 15:50 is such a joy to hear and to watch those hands and fingers flying up and down the neck. Truly sublime. Thank God we are alive to see this talent.
This brings tears to my eyes. I don't know why Ricky Skaggs & his band do that to me, but he is just magnificent. So is Paul Brewster...& everybody else. It is obvious he is loved within his band, his family & the audience, whichever clip I watch. He isn't a lot of hype, but flat out all for the music & looks like he was born standing on that stage with a mandolin in his hands.
Fantastic concert!! Thank you for this wonderful music
You can’t listen to this and not want to stomp your feet and shake a leg! That banjo gets into my soul! Cheers from southern NC!
Mighty fine pickin love from Texas !!
This is the music of my people. It fills my soul with joy.🙂♥️♥️♥️♥️
Last to men I lived with since 1986
I like it were born into an bluegrass family. Very Best wishes from my Country home Remblinghausen
Ricky scaggs and Kentucky thunder are brilliant a phenomenal bluegrass band
SKAGGS!
Get it Ricky. I've loved you for a long time. Kentucky thunder, is pretty damn cool too. I love the guy on the banjo. He wore a hat on a show that you did and boy you guys dress immaculate. Then again, most southern guys do. God bless you Ricky, you will never know what you mean to me.
Ricky has done more than most in keeping the true spirit of not only Monroe's music but Country generally -alive, so gratifying, authentic and joyous
❤ awsome..that sound of bluegrass ..founded by musicians like Ralph Stanley, lester flatt and Ricky's master Bill Monroe..so glad also that Ricky put his heart into this instead of comercial today's country
Thank you for bn ky. We here in the hill of ky love ya. Family we are
As I watch this video , I am reminded of how much talent there is in the bluegrass community. Moreover , I am cognizant of the greatness of Ricky Skags and his deeply rooted love of his craft and the respect he has for fellow musicians. All great country and yes western music is rooted in bluegrass. Ricky shows us this. I believe that Ricky's talent is nurtured by his love of humanity and his creator.
Ricky truly rocks.
Paul in Canada
Damn Ricky could Not let it go how that dude called out Paul
Ricky I know you have devoted your life to Bluegrass and music and you've did it very well. Great job by You and the band here too.
That was far beyond the reaches of most country music today, it was alive and well!!! Ricky has not lost a thing with time, he's got a talent that is continuing to thrive and grow. Thank you for sharing this video and God Blessing for you an yours.
It brings joy to my heart to hear this amazing group, the best of the best, play. Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder, the epitome of true bluegrass ( and more!)!!
Really enjoyed that. Talented, talented guys. 👍👍

Love and appreciate the great music. Has helped during a move I have to make. God Bless
I'm glad to see the genre is growing. Bluegrass music is in the heart and played as such. Its my go too.
Every once in a while I want to hear some Bluegrass......I fill that need with one click- Ricky Skaggs. Why go anywhere else, he's the master.
He's a true son of the masters in spirit-Monroe and Stanley approved.
@Daniel McMillon That's the reason I keep my extensive music collection in tip-top shape. Took me 50 years to build it.
Well, this was posted a year ago.....I hope you have heard Billy Strings by now...LOL!!
@@maryplaidy6814 "Monroe and Stanley approved." Don't forget Flatt & Scruggs, who I personally consider the pinnacle of Bluegrass. Ricky played with them and surely has their blessings as well.
BEV Will u do me a favour . Will u listen to this album just 1 time n see what u think . it has to be all the way thru though ,its good to the end . Steve Earl n the Del McCory Band s -- The MOUNTAIN . Anybody with a cowboy/ cowgirl hat on who hasnt heard this albm . ,needs to .! Go Scaggs go .
JUST BACK FOR MORE….
this is and will always be, the certified "Thunder".... with the one & only Paul Brewster (to the right of Ricky) guitar and vocals.
Sadly, he doesn't travel anymore....wish him the best on the 'back 9'
Country's the best music on the planet ...
Ive been playing bluegrass since the 1980s and id be ashamed to take my mess out of the case in front of these guys.
THANKS TO RICKY, AND HIS ROOTS, HE HAS KEPT BLUEGRASS VERY ALIVE, AND REAL COUNTRY MUSIC, THESE NEW BANDS TODAY ON THE CHARTS , IS NOT COUNRTY THAT I CARE FOR, COUSIN FIGEL
Outstanding stuff from Ricky and the band. Ricky’s a legend

Yellow Creek has an owl like Bohemian!!!
soothes the soul .. and... makes me holler hidy-ho... more than once
thanks y'all... yee 🤠 haw
There is an enormous amount of talent out there but I believe you would be hard pressed to find a group of musicians that can touch this ensemble, each one is truly outstanding, thank you guys it was mind blowing treat to the ears 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
Amazing concert !!! Ricky Skaggs is probably one of the best country musicians !!!
Country? Bluegrass,hillbilly.
He is, maybe, the best country musician ever. They say he can play every instrument better than anyone else in the band; that's probably an exaggeration, but the point is well taken. If you're in his band you are an all-star bluegrass musician.
Always the real deal!😊
Ricky is in his glory.. Music man there.. Listening from Scotland. 💙 XX 🎙🎵🎼
Some of the best music one could listen today, or ever. Thanks Kentucky Thunder!
Ricky is the greatest and his band is fantastic!!!! WOW, what a wonderful show!!!!
Real music and wonderful talent!!! Love this from Missouri!!
Bluegrass music breaking the speed limit.🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇
an army of talented artists
Life is good
And I am living it
Jake Workman (guitar) and Russ Carson(banjo) are setting fire on these! All the musicians are earning their way tonight! Y'all nailed it, fellas!
And, by golly, Doug Jernigan on the peddle steel (has also played on the Merlin Gene PBS shows)!
Just saw Ricky Skaggs in Vermont. Holy Shit! Blown away can't describe it. I'm still smiling!!! 2019.
28:44 & 38:50 & 43:19

These songs, just some of my favorites & "REAL Country Music". (Not this junk they play now a days... 😲😲😲)
What can I say, "I'm a Country Girl at Heart"! 😉 💘❤💘

Just absolute fire 🔥 🔥 🔥
It just doesn’t get any more talented than this. People... WAKE UP!!!!!!!
Sweet, Sweet bluegrass music, like rain fall on a parched desert, so cool.
Bluegrass music doesn't have percussion, nor electrical instruments. This is not bluegrass.
No one ever mentions the upright bass player, but the solo he takes during the encore is stupendous!
He's a Jazz guy that went bluegrass. 👍
What a line up...damm...Doug Jernigan steel..the best!! Workman flattop, on and on...WOW
chec Buddy Cage .
lordy thats some good stuff right theres
No one better than Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder. No one. 😊👍
I found heaven!! Blue grass!!!!!
Had to give this a thumbs up within about one minute of listening to it!
me too!
Which of his songs has whipper will in it
I seen the thunder and had to hit it quickly too.
from Spain. I love this music
I. Soft You’re alright Spain 🇪🇸 from Maine 🇺🇸
I was in Ávila a few years ago and it seems like Spaniards around there love American country music.
@@JohnDoe-cp3yg Music in Spain is a tradition, it is culture, it is a very old country with a lot of history, music has always been rooted in us, the music itself denotes the character of the countries. The country genre has a lot of character.
All incredible artists thanks for the music Ricky
