    I still play this clip every time I open my RUclips. Charlie has this tune NAILED!!
    Great tight group. Listen to Johnny chopping the chords on that fiddle. Great stuff. Still working on this tune on my banjo. Getting there with this inspirational rendition.

    Beautifully done! A fantastic group! That`s what a traditional bluegrass/old time tune SHOULD sound like.

    Hard to beat an old Mastertone for richness of sound. That's some mighty fine fiddle playing as well.

      Johnny's sound is very like his dad's; not unexpected,I suppose. This is terrific bluegras,s the way it should be played.

      @allenronaldson4381 4 года назад +3

      Well, it is his dads old fiddle and bow. It’s the same one that is heard on all the old Flatt & Scruggs recordings..

    Sounds like it came of the record! Years ago! The fiddle is spot on! But he learned what the sounds were like as a boy listening to his dad with Flatt and Scruggs! That’s Paul son ! Getr done boys!

    I've got to shut this down , go get my banjo and keep practicing Sally Ann. This is really great - and Paul Warren's son. I have that Foggy Mountain Banjo album. It is one of the best instrumental albums ever. Cushman is so smooth and articulate on his playing. Bring us more of this group - please!!

      What in the world kind of playing do you gotta do to need a pick guard on a bass, let alone get it so worn out like that?

    I wouldn't dare to go as far as saying this is better than the originals. It's really great and I like all these guys, Charlie is a nice guy and the best banjo player I know. This is just as good, but to say above the guys who made this music, No.
