For all of you non-mandolin players out there, you have no idea how INCREDIBLY HARD the "cross-picking" is that you see on Jesse's break, and the thing is, he appears to do it EFFORTLESSLY. A person could play that instrument a lifetime, and still not be able to do what you see him do here.
Jim and Jesse are very distinctive in Bluegrass music. They stand out from the rest. I have always been able to recognize their singing and playing Bluegrass.
Jim and jesse were fantastic ! I got to be around them years ago at the bluegrass festivals talked with them very much . I am so honored to have done so .
Time is winding down for all of us that love this kind of music They just ain't making it like this old group any more..Are at this time no one will play it on a radio like they use to do..
I got to meet Jesse and see him up close jamming with David Grisman about a month ago. Jesse is 83 years old today and still going strong and exploring new directions. He just released a Grateful Dead tribute CD.
@@salmannasar9514 Sorry! The reply should have been to Allan Hansen. I see it was first recorded in 1940, by Jimmy Wakely. Johnny Bond recorded it himself in 1953. Anyway, a lovely song, we can agree - I first heard in about 1980, at a bluegrass festival, sung by John Hartford.
@@michaelduffy6874 Oh yeah it’s definitely an amazing song, I’m just 16 years old & I lately started listening to 80s rock & shii. I love it. Btw is Allan hansen your account too?
I'm sad tonight my heart is weary I'm wondering if I'm wrong or right To dream about you though you left me I wonder where you are tonight [Chorus:] That old rain is cold and slowly falling Upon my window pane tonight And though your love grows even colder I wonder where you are tonight Your heart was cold you never loved me Although you often said you cared And now you've gone to find another Someone who knows the love I shared [Chorus] Then came the dawn the day you left me I tried to smile with all my might But I just couldn't hide the sorrow That lingers in my heart tonight [Chorus]

Great harmony and great pickers..but that fiddler is superb
One of My Most Requested when I was in Radio. Back in the Good Ole days.
Great song, with Garland Shuping on banjo and Joe Meadows on fiddle. Another fantastic performance by the McReynolds brothers!!
Jim and Jesse are very distinctive in Bluegrass music. They stand out from the rest. I have always been able to recognize their singing and playing Bluegrass.
Garland Shuping, the banjo player, was a good friend. R.I.P. Garland.
He had been fighting pneumonia and died of a heart attack in the hospital.
Sorry for your loss
as fresh and vibrant as if it was made yesterday!
Luv the leisure suits and HAIR! Well, many of had them then.
Wish we still had Jim and Jesse, too.
You just can't beat their harmony, and great cross picking, too!! They're the best!!

It’s been 5 years to this comment, there must be so many things u wish rn u would’ve known back then
I'm sad tonight my heart is weary
I'm wondering if I'm wrong or right
To dream about you though you left me
I wonder where you are tonight
[Chorus:]
That old rain is cold and slowly falling
Upon my window pane tonight
And though your love grows even colder
I wonder where you are tonight
Your heart was cold you never loved me
Although you often said you cared
And now you've gone to find another
Someone who knows the love I shared
[Chorus]
Then came the dawn the day you left me
I tried to smile with all my might
But I just couldn't hide the sorrow
That lingers in my heart tonight
[Chorus]
Wonder where these guys are today?
Oh, that's Garland Shuping on Banjo.
WOW!
Good
Now this is more like it.
Bout..1974.to.76.here.rj..joe meadows on fiddle.
