The older I get, the more I appreciate folks who bother to keep this sort of thing alive. It's always important to preserve one's roots and the link to those who came before, and no genre of music has ever given me such a strong feeling of stepping into the past as bluegrass.
Married a girl from Jackson Co. 60 odd years ago. When she graduated from her tiny Smokey Mountain school, I courted her up there. Laid her to rest up on Water Rock Knob. Smartest person I ever knew. Kept me on the straight and narrow all her life. Miss her. Those mountains bring her back to life. Good night, Irene.
My husband and I always enjoyed bluegrass music. He passed away September, 2022. Took him to the Appalachian museum twice. He absolutely enjoyed himself especially since I just turned him lose up on the first trip and told him this is the surprise I had for you. When we first met, I played the fiddle. So, now that it's just me again I am getting back into my music playing and going to a little restrant in a nearby town and joining in the bluegrass music with friends I've know for many years. Lots of things change for us over the years but the music still stays good!
Born in France came to the South at âge 23 living first in B’ham and then in Nashville Now back to France at 75 I will never forget Dixie stays on mi mind and heart God bless y’all
these people are grounded by history and respectful of the past. They breathe life into the carcass of todays dysfunctional society obsessed with consumerism and indebted financially and spiritually.
It is irresponsible to both ignore the past and neglect the future. Tradition, family, love, gratefulness are all virtues to be encouraged. However if those conflict with the needs of the future then they should take a back seat.
@chrisgoodman707, the bluegrass music comes from our Scots-Irish heritage that we brought over and into the Appalachian Mountains. Some of the instruments are even the same. If you listen to Celtic Scots-Irish Music, you'll hear the similarities. If I remember correctly, the banjo was created here. My first instrument was accordion, which I started learning at age 6. By age 9, I was performing in public. My Granddaddy LOVED for me to play what he called the polkas. Way back then I didn't know our heritage. I also play Rhythm Guitar, and am fixing to start learning to play the Tin Whistle. I have played and sang professionally for decades. Enjoy our music!!
Banjo is African American in its current form, African in its original form. Bluegrass is American Mountain music. Influence is Welsh, Dutch, Irish, English, Scottish, with the result being American. No such thing as “Bluegrass” from or in Europe.
❤ ❤❤❤❤❤!!!! I went to college with a Jamaican dude who loved punk, swing, jazz and Metal. My great great gramma from. SICILY loved hair band music. Music speak to everyone, just depends on our vibe ❤. I'm Sicilian and Irish and love old school rap, bluegrass, metal, doo wop, all of it😊
Bought the whole darn mountain. Surrounded by hills and hollers, wild game. Hard wood and pines, walnut, and hickory trees. Deer, turkey, squirrels, rabbits, and birds everywhere in the yard. Almost heaven? This is heaven on earth! All that was missing is this music! Now life is complete!
Es ist so wunderbar, dass du Bluegrass-Musik genießt. Auch wir hören diese Musik gerne. Wir haben Ihr Land besucht, sind nach Erfurt, Leipzig, Wittenburg und Berlin gereist.
I lived in Germany for four years. Loved it. Had many friends in Friedberg, Butzbach and Geissen. I was a member of a club in Wetzlar. Loved Germany and Austria.
My Mother’s “people” moved to Fleming County, Kentucky after fighting in the Revolutionary War. This music is not only part of my heritage, it’s in my blood.
I went to Barcelona once and oddly enough a Spanish street performer started to play blue grass on a banjo. He probably figured that there would be many American tourists
Whoever thought of this idea thought of a great idea. … more of this. I’m a senior boomer city slicker that lives in Canada’s biggest city. I like Bluegrass. I watch this vid on my 60” big screen TV while I am having breakfast. Nothing like starting the day off right! Amen
My Dad’s family roots are all over the NC mountains. He had to leave to find work in the Piedmont but the mountains will always be home. Such a special place!
I enjoy playing on the front porch in my little small town. I play harmonica and fiddle. Should see some of the looks I get when I'm out there in 40 degree Temps blowing my harmonica to some of this music I bring up on my u tube lol!!!!@
@yesenochwasRIGHT, absolutely!! Bluegrass is is Americanized version of our Scots-Irish Music that my ancestors brought over as they came, and settled all throughout the Appalachian mountains. I love playing and singin' it!!
@@1blondidea blue grass has it's origins in scotland. appalacian also from scotland and england. type in .......munro mondays - "scotland" peghead nation........
Im from the mountains of N.C. BLACK MOUNTAIN, BOONE, ASHEVILLE. GREW UP ON THIS. I'M 65 NOW AND STILL LOVE IT.ALWAYS WILL. GOD BLESS ALL THE MOUNTAIN FOLK!!!!!!
Kinda makes me wonder if we ever past each other's paths and never knew it.I drove 65 BMW motorcycle the cops were always stopping me just to ask about the bike, right friendly being a long haired hard working Jew. Everyone was right friendly and truly excepting, just I had hoped. My body is busted and broken from construction hard to drive my truck far but my bike I can still ride forever just not as radically as then.I still manage to keep the dirty side down.
My ancestors are from this area many, many years ago. I was born and raised in Missouri but with the same morals and value of family and life as them. I've never got a chance to visit. I'm 56 yrs old and have stage IV colon, liver and lung cancer. My bucket list includes a trip to see the sunrise and sunset from these beautiful mountains.
You should come Tracy. I also come from ancestors who roamed and carved out the Wilderness Trail into the Cumberland Gap. I toured the area yesterday, making a long trip from Texas. No regrets. I'm worn out and 70, but so happy to be here and just imagine what it was like for them. ❤❤
@@sundayze If I didn't have stage IV cancer that's incurable I would SOOOO come. I'm in chemo for three days every two weeks and I'm just trying to beat it and show them that miracles happen. I hope to make it some day. I'm glad you had the chance. 😊
And a different time and place I wish I could’ve been on the great planes driving those big ol locomotives when the rail roads were starting to stretch across America
I come from a family that grew up with music on the weekends from what I have been told by my mom. She played a guitar, my dad an accordion and mandolin and one of her brothers, a fiddle. Ih her family there were 13 kids, 3 girls and 10 boys. Saturday nights were always full of music and fellowship. Now, my parents have passed away but the music---- just passed right on down. I am 70 years old and my younger brother just a few years behind me. We get together on Thursday nights at a little restaurant call Parkside and jam out. Oh yea!!!!! He plays guitar and I a harmonica along with the other jammer there. I also have grandchildren that have expressed an interest in learning to play. They are truly blessed with God given talent. Will I ever be able to full fill that task? Don't know but I bet I can sure try. Life is good cause God is good ------ all the time!
Moonshine flows like the mountain streams. Banjos bang away and echo thru the hollers and hills. Neighbors gather, eat and dance to the music. People share, no one goes hungry. Everyday is a holiday and every meal is a feast.
As a 16 year old living in Toronto (1963) I'd drive my 56 Chrysler Windsor Newport around in the middle of the night when my radio would pick up Wheeling West Virginia and that was my introduction to the world of Bluegrass-wonderful memories.
I grew up in Potsdam,NY! I would also listen to WWVA in Wheeling!! I loved Lee Moore, The coffee drinking night hawk!! Especially his song “The cat came back!! Miss that Man!,
I grew up with Bluegrass and country music living in the country and my parents gave me a old radio and hooked a copper wire up a hill to a big old tree. Saturday nights I could get Nashville, Wheeling West Virginia, a couple more and that was back in the 40's,50's
Some 45 years ago I traveled through the Appalachia on a motorcycle going to every Bluegrass tailgate event. The people were great and the mountains and the morning mist were beautiful. The poverty was bad but they made the best they could wonderful place . The music was great. Might try it again.
I've lived in Appalachia since the Summer of '88 and must agree with you. It's a beautiful place with wonderful people. I was born, raised and went to college in Mississippi but the Appalachian people are a far, far better, kinder, more compassionate and a more spiritual people than those I grew up with. It's too bad that the folks of Appalachia continue to vote for politicians who talk a big talk but always sell them and Appalachia out. Breaks your heart for them and for the land.
I hear that. My Maternal Grandparents had a Cabin in Crystal Springs, near Elkins, West Virginia that we spent a great deal of time in as kids growing up. It's been over 30 years since I was back there, but this beautiful music certainly does bring back some beautiful memories, as does the beautiful scenery in this lovely video.
There's nothing more American than the sounds of a banjo and fiddle playing around a campfire while sipping moonshine on the front porch of your little mountain home.
Just moving to East TN. No one abuses you there if you Love God and Freedom and Family. I hope to make a friend there, soon! Maybe I’ll run into you at a music event someday! This music has been so healing for my fragile heart as of late. God knew where I needed to be.

Dang I love bluegrass so much. If I started my own band it would definitely be bluegrass. I grew up in Washington State, about 50 Mi south of seattle. It's about the farthest you can think of from bluegrass but something about it just speaks to me and I can't say why.
My father grew up in Yancey County NC. I love the mountains from a small age to this day. He was born there but moved when he was 19 to SC to find work. He was a blacksmith. All these songs make a big impression on me because of him. I have been all over those mountains and still love them, what a beautiful gift from God. Thank you, love the music and culture. KA
My grandmother was from Yancey county. She was an Allen Irish ☘️ to the bone . Scott’s lrish and Cherokee on Dad’s side and Irish. Music in the blood . Mom could sing with all her Siblings in church. I played percussion 🥁 in my home town band in chapel hill N.C. Grandma played Church organ. I hope to retire soon and get back to my roots of the Mountains.
Oh I so love this music . It reminds me of back home growing back in the hills of West Virginia. We were poor as hell but life couldn't have been any better and I would gladly live it again. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories
I'm from Guatemala Central American, I lived in Colorado for about ten years. I visited little towns, and this is their music. (Something like old west music). I really love this kind of music.
It's beautiful music. Music that is pure. Makes you feel good inside...Love Appalachian music.... Bluegrass music always makes me smile ...from, Chicago, IL....
Howdy y'all listening from Arkansas I was raised in the country my family listened to bluegrass I'm 50 years old now family ( older generation) All gone this reminds me of them and the good ole days

My grandmother was from Yancey county. She was an Allen Irish ☘️ to the bone . Scott’s lrish and Cherokee on Dad’s side and Irish. Music in the blood . Mom could sing with all her Siblings in church. I played percussion 🥁 in my home town band in chapel hill N.C. Grandma played Church organ. I hope to retire soon and get back to my roots of the Mountains.
