Sonny & Bobby ALWAYS a CLASS ACT!! Too bad their fiddler du jour, ELIJAH BLAINE SPROUSE, had NO class. Borrowed $40,506 from old friends in 2008 to keep his butt out of jail and pay his court costs for DUI and Child Abuse in CA. Repaid $1,076 that year. Hasn't paid a cent since. Talent? Some. Class? NONE. Just a low-class white trash hillbilly who won't pay his debts even after he signed a Promissory Note for the loan. GOOGLE him and be surprised :-}
@OSCAR82AA Every song Sonny ever played is a lesson on backup, except for the "Concerto" where he only plays lead breaks. Otherwise, he ALWAYS gave a clinic on backup. Sonny is THE MAN, period.
@OSCAR82AA ...Yes, and my family & I feel that Sonny has never gotten the recognition that he truly deserves! Sonny is awesome, and he plays some special rolls that absolutely give me goosebumps. He's good-lookin' too!
@CARROLLCTYDOBROGIRL carrollcity Sonny Osborne is great . In the banjo players community Sonny does get the recognition . Most banjo players know that Sonny Osborne is one of the Masters of the 5 string banjo ! Great Guy too , I have met him a few times and always super nice.

One of the best configurations the Osbornes put forth over the years. Thanks for posting.

I agree: One of the best configurations of this band ever! Brewster's singing and Sprouse's fiddling could not be more perfect.
