- Russell Moore (mandolin), now of IIIrd Tyme Out; Scott Vestal (banjo), Marc Kellar (guitar), & Scott Vestal (bass). This was recorded in the early 1980s on the "Fire on the Mountain" TV show.
I can't believe Scott Vestal was playing the banjo and the bass at the same time. Just goes to show how legendary he is.
Curtis Vestal is on bass.
@@candymike5045 Lol the description was messed up
I was the Associate Producer, and was running the sound board for this performance. These guys were my pals and "pickin' Buddies."
I'm old enough to remember those days. When we heard these guys, we felt like we were being visited by time travelers who came from the future! Cutting edge stuff back then!
Man! I miss those great times! Southern Connection was Scott Vestal, Marc Keller, Russell Moore, and Curtis Vestal. Marc didn’t make the DL&Q trip, but did fine in his own way. They were Quicksilver-ready pretty quickly. Doyle sensed it immediately. They were a pleasure to watch. Texas produced some quality bands. These guys were mighty fine and a nice bunch to get to know! Pick away! Glad to see this posted!
I love Russell's mandolin playing from this era! After he joined Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver he didn't play it so much - hardly at all! Once at a festival in Stuart,Va he was sitting at the record table picking the mandolin when I asked him to play "Julie Ann" like Doyle usually did and he nailed it note for note!! Heckuva good guy too!
Russell is just one of them singers that could sing the phonebook and make the hairs stand up on your body all over!!!
can't get enough of this man, hold er flush
Take’s Bluegrass Album has Southern Connection, too! Look for it. You’ll like what you hear!
this is BRILLIANT
Bass player is indeed Curtis Vestal. This is a good one!
Thanks for this, Bluegrass Library!
the bass player is curtis vestal if any of yall want to know
Fantastic!
Russell Moore man. Singgg ittttt
I saw him play mandolin another time when him, Ray Deaton, Charlie Waller, and Eddie Adcock got together on stage to do something.
chills.....:)
That is nice! ....Strong! 5*
I would love to see the rest of the show. Got any more songs from this show? These guys are awesome!!
SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guitar player is Marc Keller, Steven Moore was playing bass for them during that time but I couldn't see him good enough to know if it's him or not.
I came for the wink
back when this band started out, the smartest thing Doyle Lawson did was hire Russell Moore!!!
And Scott Vestal!
One word BILLY STRINGS Wait a minute that’s 2 words
Wait another minute that’s a name. 😊
He was winking at me, lol ! He was kinda cute when he was young, but weren't we all? LOL !!!! That's why he winked at me, giggle.
Does anyone know the name of the guitar player? I believe that the bass player is Scott Vestal's brother, but I forgot his first name.
Curtis Vestal.
not only did doyle hire russell. he fired his whole band to have this band as quiksilver
Not quite all of Southern Connection. Marc was not in DL&Q.
Actually his original band had already left, and Doyle needed a new band so he hired Russell, Scott & Curtis.
no better on vocals than RM.....
This is the band that Doyle Lawson Hired Russel Scott and Curtis out of.
I'm sure he was flirtin with one of his love starved female fans..I noticed it to, I was wondering if anybody would mention it
dose anyone know what year this video is ?
Taking a guess at very early ‘80s. I taped a cassette of a show, recently made myself a copy and gave the original to Scott Vestal.
@flatpikinguitar Why does he have to play the melody? A solo is for the player to shine, the meloy had already been established. In most jazz the melody is only played twice (once at the kickoff and one to end), in rock the solos are almost never the melody of the song. Why should bluegrass be the only genre of music where all the players HAVE to play the melody no matter what? The players have so much more to offer than that.
No one has to do it. Listen to some of the old Jim Shumate solos with Flatt and Scruggs, he didn't play much melody
Your argument is invalid.
No offence, the guitar player is very talented and very capable, but all he is doing is playing hot licks to the chord progression. No melody whatsoever
He's playing RHYTHM. There were already two lead instruments. Scott on Banjo and Russell on Mandolin. I hate it when Guitar players play meaningless breaks. It makes the rhythm go all to pieces. I never heard Lester Flatt play a break, or Jimmie Martin, or Carter Stanley. These trashy guitar breaks are RUINING Bluegrass.
How much melody did Tony Rice ever play?! 😂
