Am 26 years old and have been listening to this music for about 4 years now. Am blessed that God introduced me to this music. Singing along to Bill Monroe’s gospel music led and helped bring me to Christ. It’s quite funny to say, but Bill Monroe was one of the components that brought myself to Jesus Christ.
Brings back sweet memories of when I was a child growing up in the Applation Mountains and hearing this kind of music in church and on the radio of the Grand Ol Opera on a AM radio station on Saturday night at 9 pm.
@@christophervaca7116 Need to have 6 kids: one with a mandolin, another with a guitar, the next with a banjo, another one with a fiddle, one with an upright bass and the last one will play the harmonica and the dobro at the same time!
Bill got that pentalcostal jump I’ve seen a thousand times at family gatherings with my grandparents. Now I’m the grandparent but still feel like a kid. It’s weird.
So nice to come here and spend time listening to sounds of my youth even if I didn't fully appreciate it back in the 1950s and early 1960's. Well, anti-social media does have some positive elements afterall. One just has to take time to look for them.
A Cavalcade of Bluegrass that we will never see again. That and old time mountain music on the back porch are dying art forms because New Bluegrass players want to inject modern themes and even agendas into the songs they write. I don't want that crap, i want to escape it and go back in time when people Loved God and acted like it. Now everything is totally crazy and out of control. Thank God above that i'm old now. I'll be graduating soon.
The great Joe Stuart on rhythm guitar-he has played EVERY instrument for Bill -Guitar, Fiddle, Banjo, Bass-on records & live! Even the Mandolin, when Bill broke his arm !, from the 1950's on !! A musicians musician. The originators / inventers of Bluegrass.- no such thing as 'Bluegrass' Music before Mr. Bill. Nearly ALL REAL Bluegrass musicians, like the African American Blues 'originators are gone-only 'interpreters' and lousy ones at that-one had to live the life, and that life is long gone-to me ,Bluegrass is the true white mans 'blues' .True American music originated in the Southern states, along with some of the worst aspects of the U.S.A. Lynchings, cracker racists, the 'klan',poverty, natural disasters--oh, but the music ! :Blues, Gospel, Soul/R&B, REAL country music, Bluegrass and of course ,Jazz.
My error-wrote before viewing-I've seen Bill with both Blake & quite e few times with Butch, and Butch DID play some 'far-out' ban jo at least at every show-taped a few.

I still have this on VHS I recorded. The entire show. When I was first getting into bluegrass. I watched it every day!
Oh so beautiful
wow, the great Ralph Stanley made an appearance nailing it as usual - haunting voice and the best banjo claw-hammer ever.
Holy shit. WHAT A BAND
that dance at the end of the first song made my heart genuinely happy :)
thanks so much for posting
Good to hear Bill with a top notch sound system!
Amazing quality of the video. Thank you so much for posting!
Thank you Bill Monroe& boys
Goosebumps watching this. Heaven has a helluva bluegrass band!

Pure raw singing. Love it

So fortunate my family listened to real music or I would be missing this right now ❤
❤ to watch old Bill cut a rug
Ralph Stanley is one of my favorite blue grass artists
This is just too good
wow! proud to be Canadian...ya blue grass lives here too
Love it, love it, love it!!! Thank you for sharing.
Happy birthday, Bill Monroe!
Damn, they are superb :.
These trouberdores make me smile
Fantastic performance
This is the BEST 🎼
I saw Bill Monroe perform once in person while stationed in Norfolk VA during the 1990's.
Amazing
The best bluegrass pickers
So Cool
Bill Monroe's second appearance on Austin City Limits with Ralph Stanley in Season 11 (1986).
Don't you love it when they interrupt a song with an ad? Great timing, RUclips.
Be thankful you get to see this at all…
Mighty fine 😎
COMIN FOR TO CARRY ME HOME, ABSOLUTELY !!
1986 I was connecting iron on NATO Base in Mouse Jaw Saskatchewan.
@antoinebrosseau no, Mouse Jaw. It's much smaller, you probably haven't heard of it.
praise the LORD !!

Should have had Mac out there with them for “can’t you hear me calling” ❤ imagine 🤯
Absolute best , yes too many greats here . Who is the solo at 17:33 on " Ill Fly Away"?
Mac Wiseman
❤
Just so you know I am blowing how I feel you know

WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN A LITTLE MORE SPECIAL IF THE THE OSBORNE BROS. HAD BEEN THERE
Its remarkable [to a non bluegrass player] how they sense 5 bar phrases - mixed with an occasional 4 bar
with a sort of a hidden signal .
Can someone tell me the name of the first instrumental piece?

Anyone know where you can get the entire episode? I had it recorded on VHS forever and lost it!
7:20
Is this banjo break psychedelic?
If you are!
@@ericholt5954 😁
@@ericholt5954 that explains it 😃
Butch was in a 'rock' band previously-clothes, hair, hygienically challenged-the whole bit. Google him-He most likely did a few drugs in his youth.

Cool stetsons))
Needs more cow... banjo
Like #100
bedste musik
Professionalism bar none
Fiddle Player gets perty sloppy 3 or 4 songs in. Repeatedly flat. Dude next to him gives him the look too like "Dude-no more drinkin' before shows"
Yeah first song octaves and double stops aren’t in tune.
Yeah Mr. Monroe gave him the stink eye as well. 🤨
To the average person he sounded savage 😊
I wonder if he was high, he was practically bouncing. but man he's better than me stone cold sober any day. who is he?
CURLEY RAY CLINE HAD A HABIT OF GETTING A LITTLE TOO EXHUBERATIVE AND SLOPPY . THE OTHER FIDDLER IS GLEN DUNCAN AND DUNCAN IS ALWAYS GREAT
the gold standard
What is the song Bill and Ralph sang here?
“Can’t You Hear Me Callin’”
So Cool
