Love the old Gibson guitar Scott plays, but when you bring in two mandolins - oh my. Mandolins played by these two musicians especially with one much prettier than the other, is special.
So inspiring to a guitarist who play Mandolin and always feels guilty he doesn't spend enough time with it. Just discovered John and Sharon but love Scott''s playing too. That Gibson sits so beautifully in the mix. The vocals are amazing and Sharon's voice in particular is mesmerising. I love how informal this is yet the sound is huge, even when Sharon switches to Mandolin.
I have to comment again (sorry). This is what acoustic music is. I hope young players will see and hear this. You don't have to cram every note on the fretboard into a solo at a breakneck pace. This is how I always wanted to play. Thank you so much for uploading.
I agree with your analogy. Often the younger players think that lickety split fast sounds better. I prefer , as do you , to hear the notes. Mind you I have played in bands with top notch banjo and fiddle players and a good crowd pleasing fast number is great. Been picking in Ontario for over 60 years . But I get the impression from watching Scott , I say to myself : " hey I can do that " if I work at it.
Our histories go back to the Bay Area in the early 80s to Strawberry to merlefest and it's great to see this combination in this Trio with such long-standing talented musicians playing such great music so come back to North Carolina sometime please
Scott really shines on this song towards the end, so beautifully played, the old gibson is a perfect instrument in his hands. I do have to say that John on that mandolin is really special as well!
Good to see/hear Sharon again....really enjoyed her part in the David&Elkins sessions in W.Virginia with greats like Darol Anger, Herschel Sizemore, Byron Berline, Ned Lubercki, Sally VanMeter, and Tyler Grant.
@@donjeffcoat5683 John was kind enough to let me play it when I attended his class for a week at Sore Fingers Summer School here in the UK in 2017. The first thing that struck me about it was how light it was! The tone, even in my hands, was lovely and to Hear John play his beautiful tune 'A Prairie Jewel' with Ron Block on guitar was the highlight of the week for me. And yes, it is indeed a Loar.
i like this, but keep trump out of it, he's a good man that did a good job, just like you all doin' a good job on those songs, lets move on, and melania does a lot of nice things as well.
This is fantastic!!! Thank you to the musicians and producers that put this on the internet ❤❤❤❤❤
So ,So Good
Yes, Gilchrist plays mandolin and bass well, and she's the best singer of this group. Yea Sharon!

Me too, I've so much exposure to other makes and models, very little Gibson, played by a master, wonderful to hear.
I like the sound of that Gibson Guitar...
Ridiculously wonderful music. Oh how I yearn for return of RIVER CITY BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL in Portland Oregon.

Been listening to a lot of John's music lately, he has such a pleasant sound, but it speaks to me. Thank you brother, and God bless.
Wonderful to hear the bass brought up in the mix '

I love Sharon's original!
great production.....making me yearn for more

John is the best!
Really enjoyed this so much. Please keep it up.
Just about as clean as you can get. Very special music.
Thanks for the music 🎶!
Exquisite, thank you, wonder tonemastery and taste.
True Love Away right around 47:... So incredibly beautiful. Scott's guitar playing is breaking my heart open today. LOVE!

I've been wanting an old J-45. So beautiful sounding.
Beautifully performed, filmed, and recorded. A treasure. Bravo!
Can't wait for the album!
What a treat!! Outstanding by any measure!

Stunning!
Excellent music! Is there more of this great stuff ?
Fantastic
Beautiful production...
He's playin his Loar!!!
Doesn't look like a Loar.
@@gusgarelick852 Most definitely is.
His Loar is considered the best sounding one in existence.

Yep it's his Loar!
So good. Would someone remind me the name of the first tune?
That question was also driving me nuts. I know the tune well but couldn't remember the name. It is, of course, Liza Jane
@@MrLaserbob thanks!
What is the name of the song that starts around minute 28:32? So beautiful!
'Smoke On The Water'. No wait, sorry, it's 'Midnight On The Water'. It's the third track on their 'The Harmonic Tone Revealers' album.
@@RiffCollector Oh yes, thank you!
@@thelonesomesongbirds you’re very welcome 👍🏻
2 wraps, below the hole.
The best tone from a guitar center mandolin.
lol wat
Why didn't you just call yourselves the Pegheads?
i like this, but keep trump out of it, he's a good man that did a good job, just like you all doin' a good job on those songs, lets move on, and melania does a lot of nice things as well.
Trump is garbage
