@@Ken-uo7iw They did that on their earlier recordings cause Lester liked to sing a bit higher. Ive read they went back to G when they saw it bending their instruments. Also as Lester got older he's voice lowered a bit. This is G here. If you play along you'll know
Just discovered these recordings. Thank you so much for sharing them, I am thoroughly enjoying them. Greetings from a terrible banjo player in Shanghai, China.
When I was a kid watching these shows when they first ran, my dad and I would listen to this music on our TV of the time with its tiny speaker. Now watching these videos with my computer hooked to my widescreen TV and my stereo, the sound of Lester's guitar is so clear. I'm surprised the mic is picking it up so well with him holding it not especially close to it. That Martin L-5 D-28 sounds so wonderful. I'm glad I got the chance to hear it properly.
Its 12:01am Thursday April24,2024 sure been good listening to this fine show of Flatt and Scruggs,from about 65 years ago irecon,more or less.I'd like to time travel back and be about 33 years old.
You'd be living in better times and a better country; more wholesome and good times, for sure. Back when men were men and women were women, and everybody knew it. Was everything perfect? Of course not. But that won't happen till this old world is done away with and we're living on the new Earth.
This comment section 50%. Man, those were the goog old days, I remember watching thi swith the entire family. Music isn't what it used to be theese days. 50%. Those Martha White recipes sound delicious. I gotta try one of them.
Yep very very good music ,and musicians ,and they all seem to be having a good time ,natural reactions and laughs ,today those variety shows seem so contrived to this.

That’s Hylo Brown. That was his thing; he could sing on the bass side of baritone and then turn around on the very next verse and hit some incredibly powerful falsetto notes that glide back into chest voice flawlessly. He is truly one of the forgotten greats
About 1955 I think. My father used to watch every Saturday evening. In the late 50s he brought back a Telefunken tape recorder from Germany in a B47. He would carefully set it up in front of the TV and record. We’d hear it again every morning as he got ready for work. We made a trip in Nashville to see the Grand Ole Opry live in about 1967.

Fried some chicken with Martha White Hot Rize last night. So grateful to have these recordings. Thanks for posting.
Just remember to bake 'em on an *ungreezed* baking sheet. 5:28. Ah, those charming, disappearing regionalisms....
...And you can find Martha White's self rising flour at your nearest Walmart.

Actually it's not a true G. Flatt & Scruggs tuned sharp. Not sure exactly, how much. I'm sure there are some musicians here who will be precise.
Yep, that's why I'm here

Oh my. Great audio! Thank you!
That weary bones version was great!!Earl scruggs so cool while playing funky camera work,awesome film.
How many of you want to write a letter to Martha White at the address they show and ask for the recipes? I Do!!!
If you so let’s us know what happens (we had the same thought)
Is Martha White Flour better than Pappy O’Daniel Flour?
Flatts vouce during the Martha white ditty sounds like it's tempting you to try some yum yummy cakes
Me too
Ohh my goodness! Yes, yes sir. It's a much finer flour, perfect for morning biscuits I do declare.
What happened to us as a great country
You've peaked,now is the decline
Lol, you mean the "good old days" of Jim Crow and McCarthyism?
@actiondork : Naw, that's what you mean.
This great country is being taken from us because or our defiance of Gods laws. He promised us to be great as long as we lived by his laws

Yell man I like Hudson cream😊
Love the falsetto at 42:31! Completely unexpected and very welcome indeed.

I gotta get me-self and bake some of them nic nacs
I’m coming over
Heaven!
Ha, original bread sticks. Knickknacks sticks
They ought to bring back hee haw and the grand old opry.....
Any idea what year this was recorded? Late 40's? Early 50's?

I just realized the reason Earl is stoned face is because he’s sensitive about his tooth gap
Am I the only one curious about "PET MILK"
They still sell Pet Milk today.
It's just evaporated milk.
It is a rather odd name for a food for human consumption lol.
Not to be funny but Lester was flat. Very flat. I love the bluegrass and the nostalgia of the show but his flat notes ware my nerves very thin.
Goodness gracious it’s good
👎 Flatt's singing is a caricature of old-timey / hillbilly singing, i.e. in the worst sense.
Where do we find the true old-timey hillbilly singing?
Mainer's Mountaineers@@MikeLibbie
It's what their up thayer in them there hills with all them Hillbilly Critters😂

It was better than pickin' cotton or plowing a mule. Made it to Carnegie Hall. You never did either one.
