As astonished as I am that you've never heard this song, all I can say is, welcome to Bluegrass, son. This song is an absolute legend, and I never get tired of seeing Paul Schaffer, of all people, knocking it out with Steve Martin and the immortal Earl Scruggs. I embraced my Appalachian ancestry because, I figured, with music this good, it can't be all bad.
That's Leon Russell sitn in back playn keys.Gotta dig his hair and beard. His beard is so cool, that Billy gibbons of zz top, said in an interview, that everytime he meets up with leon, it makes him wanna shave his off cause Leon's is so perfect.
@@carylawson-le7og Tough to get that many legends in one room. Legendary performance. Didn't Elton have something to do with resuscitating Russel's career some years back?
You recognized Steve Martin, an actor, and comedian, besides being an accomplished musician. Lots of famous musicians in this performance. Earl Scruggs, banjo - Glen Duncan, fiddle - Randy Scruggs, acoustic guitar - Steve Martin, 2nd banjo solo - Vince Gill, 1st electric guitar solo - Marty Stuart, mandolin - Gary Scruggs, harmonica - Albert Lee, 2nd electric guitar solo - Paul Shaffer, piano - Jerry Douglas, dobro - Leon Russell, organ - Glenn Worf, bass - Harry Stinson, drums
So much talent on this stage. Earl Scruuggs Steve Martin Vince Gill Paul Schaffer Leon Russel Jerry Douglas Marty Stewart I think I got them all. The one you recognized is Steve Martin. He's a comedian and has done a lot of movies. He's also a very accomplished banjo player.
Earl Scruggs, banjo - Glen Duncan, fiddle - Randy Scruggs, acoustic guitar - Steve Martin, 2nd banjo solo - Vince Gill, 1st electric guitar solo - Marty Stuart, mandolin - Gary Scruggs, harmonica - Albert Lee, 2nd electric guitar solo - Paul Shaffer, piano - Jerry Douglas, dobro - Leon Russell, organ - Glenn Worf, bass - Harry Stinson, drums
This will not get many views but I want you to know I appreciate you reacting to Foggy Mountain Breakdown. I have loved another version of this song for years but this is my new favorite version. Thank you, Adogg.
What really makes a group of experienced musicians like this shine is understanding that if a single mistaken note is played on an acoustic instrument - It Stands Out Like. Sore Thumb- INSTANTLY. With electric instruments you can cover up a mistake, BUT NEVER ON ACOUSTIC. NEVER.
An absolute favorite of mine. When I was just a young tyke, my father watched 'Flatt and Scruggs' every Saturday night on the Martha White Show. Loved Earl Scruggs and grew to love Steve Martin as a banjo player. Growing up in Nashville, I've met a few of those on stage and they're just great people. I still see Marty and Harry from time to time.
Earl was THE MAN when it come to banjo pickers. Him and Lester Flatt first recorded it in 1943. It's used in the famous chase scene in the movie , Bonnie and clyde.And if u think it's hard to play that fast, imagine all the time since early 1930's , and now ur 80 years old STILL BUSTIN IT OUT..in our hearts MUCH LOVE ❤ R. I. P. EARL
Most musicians from other genre's have a very tough time playing bluegrass. Most bluegrass players are very loyal to the "brand", some more pure than other, but always for the love of playing.
You are hearing a room full of legends ‼️ Vince Gill, Earl Scruggs, Steve Martin, Marty Stewart, Leon Russell, Paul Schaffer, Jerry Douglas and many more......❤THE BEST
Master musicians all of them and you need to be on your toes to play bluegrass! I loved watching the jump from one musician to the next. These guys are from all different backgrounds. Watched it all with you Adogg!
Hey Jamie I was finna react to the queen song unchained melody and then I realized that’s not Freddie singing it’s Marc Martel did u still want me to do that one or do u wanna change it
Earle is the man sitting. A True bluegrass LEGEND.He wrote this with his , then partner of a duo , b4 busting out as a single musician , earning him the title of , KING OF BLUEGRASS BANJO
Some of the finest musicians on the planet right there. You gotta hear that good lookin' guy with the white telecaster sing. Check out Vince Gill's "Go Rest High on that Mountain."
The Earl Scruggs banjo style made Bluegrass what it is today. One of the best examples of Earl's style being carried forward is J. D. Crowe (who recently passed away). He took the style and added much more to it. So many other great banjo players use this style of playing and add their own spin on it.
Bluegrass has its roots in Scottish and Irish folk music. The fast rhythm comes from the reels and jigs that were played at quick tempo so dancers could show off their best footwork. The original dance-offs.
That is a stage full of legendary musicians! I think you are referring to Steve Martin. He is an actor, but a great banjo player also. Awesome reaction!
Like a Super Group of country ! . Earl Scruggs, banjo - Glen Duncan, fiddle - Randy Scruggs, acoustic guitar - Steve Martin, 2nd banjo solo - Vince Gill, 1st electric guitar solo - Marty Stuart, mandolin - Gary Scruggs, harmonica - Albert Lee, 2nd electric guitar solo - Paul Shaffer, piano - Jerry Douglas, dobro - Leon Russell, organ - Glenn Worf, bass - Harry Stinson, drums By the way, Paul Shaffer , on the piano, is a musical director.. singer, composer, actor, author, comedian, and multi-instrumentalist ..a man behind the music .. Shaffer has served as musical director and producer for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony since its inception, He has been producer and musical director for many "super group" performances, from country to rock, He has directed shows with such stars as Jeff Lynne from ELO and Eric Clapton, and on and on.
Don’t care what kinda music is playin, if there’s talent, and I’m talking real talent on any instrument, u can’t help but bounce ur head, tap that toe, or get up n just rock it. Great is great no matter color or genre or age or whatever!
Steve Sheaffer was the keyboard player for David Letterman and Steve Martin did a lot of SNL appearances. There are a lot of well known artists in that group.
Hillbilly rock at its finest! Speed metal, move over! There's a faster hotrod in town! It's called BLUEGRASS!!! Side note: Steve Martin happens to be one of the top rated banjo players in the world.
Driving while listening to this song could get you into trouble. In the first place, it makes you wanna drive faster, and then, should the cops give chase, you can't help but wanna try and outrun them via some country roads.😊
If you appreciate talent over genre, check out some slayer. Pleeeaaaaase do video on them. Reign in blood, angel of death, dead skin mask. U pick one. There’s TALENT in these dudes. They’re heavy as hell. But they are some of the best you’ll find. Their drummer, maybe best in world.
Been playing banjo for40 years welcome to our world. It’s fun music and happy

Ricky Scaggs is up there too, I think.

This will not get many views but I want you to know I appreciate you reacting to Foggy Mountain Breakdown. I have loved another version of this song for years but this is my new favorite version. Thank you, Adogg.
Probably the most talented bunch to ever play together. Each one is great in the own right simply amazing

NEVER.
Welcome to Bluegrass. Listen to Ralph Stanley. There's videos on here from when Keith Whitley sung with him.
An absolute favorite of mine. When I was just a young tyke, my father watched 'Flatt and Scruggs' every Saturday night on the Martha White Show. Loved Earl Scruggs and grew to love Steve Martin as a banjo player. Growing up in Nashville, I've met a few of those on stage and they're just great people. I still see Marty and Harry from time to time.
This came out before you were born. I love it too. Thank you.
Every instrument gets its own solo. I love how even when the song slows down it's still going super fast.
the bald guy with sunglasses and smile on the keyboard is none other than Paul Schaffer from "Late Night with David Letterman"
Earl was THE MAN when it come to banjo pickers. Him and Lester Flatt first recorded it in 1943. It's used in the famous chase scene in the movie , Bonnie and clyde.And if u think it's hard to play that fast, imagine all the time since early 1930's , and now ur 80 years old STILL BUSTIN IT OUT..in our hearts MUCH LOVE ❤
R. I. P. EARL
This is some of the most incredible musicianship I've ever seen and heard. Wow, that's pure talent.
Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs did the Beverly Hillbillys theme song
did you notice Steve Martin? He is an expert banjo player.
Most musicians from other genre's have a very tough time playing bluegrass. Most bluegrass players are very loyal to the "brand", some more pure than other, but always for the love of playing.
That man and this song in particular is the reason I started learning bluegrass banjo
each man a master of his craft.
I'm SO glad you did this!
Blues and bluegrass are my favorites and rarely does anyone see this.
Every person in that room is an absolute legend!
So glad they got this on video. A real treasure.
What on the piano ? Paul Schaefer from letterman also blues bro’s 2000
I so happy you liked it. I love those guys
It's a large world enjoy growth is good and wise continue to broaden your world .
I'm from Kentucky, and Bluegrass is big here. There are several well-known musicians in that video, playing along with Earl.
You are hearing a room full of legends ‼️ Vince Gill, Earl Scruggs, Steve Martin, Marty Stewart, Leon Russell, Paul Schaffer, Jerry Douglas and many more......❤THE BEST

@@adoggreacts how about Lynard Skynard - Gimme Three Steps.
Beverly hillbillies theme song by Lester flatt and Earl Scruggs and they appeared as guest stars playing music on at least one episode.
Scruggs. Earl Scruggs. Legend
Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs were a very popular musical duo during the 1950’s and 1960’s. This one of their most famous pieces.
Earle is the man sitting. A True bluegrass LEGEND.He wrote this with his , then partner of a duo , b4 busting out as a single musician , earning him the title of , KING OF BLUEGRASS BANJO

Steve Martin and Paul Schaffer from the David Letterman Show on piano
One of the greats of Bluegrass music. Check him out playing with his duet partner Lester Flatt (also known as Flatt and Scruggs).
