@BATENKILL problay his no hole RB-3(aka the Banger). I dont know if he borrowed the 75 from Bob Rodgers yet or not. J.D never played a RB-4 as they are walnut banjos and all of J.Ds are mahogany like his 3 or 75. He does have a Maple Granada. Im pretty sure thats his No-Hole RB-3 there with the full flying eagle pattern.
@Banjerman07 I remember talking to Crowe one time about a RB-4, He has 1 that he bought in the 70's as I recall, but I'm not sure if he still has it as this is been 10 years ago. I know for a fact he still owns Banger as well as a standard original RB-3. truth is JD has owned and still owns a housefull of old original flatheads
The lead singer is Jimmy Gaudreau who stepped in for a short bit with the Country Gentlemen between John Duffy and Doyle Lawsong and sang lead on their version of "Sea of heartache". Jimmy has a great voice and is a great mandolin picker as well.
This was taped in late 1977 for KET. A 30 min show with Jim Murphy on steel, Steve Goetzman on drums, who later sucessfully audition with the local group Exile, and I played bass with this group for almost two years. These guys were a blast to travel and play with. Keith Whitley replaced Glen about four months later. If anyone has a complete copy of the show I would love to have it.
well uhhh gee dere rick howabout we cook us up some moonshine

That singer has a great voice. He reminds me of our old bass player.
Wow JD's left hand just seems to float over the strings! He makes it look so easy.
Although I think I prefer an electric bass, I'm not big on the other electric instruments, its just not bluegrass.

This is great. Please post more Crowe stuff from the 70s, especially if you've got anything with Keith Whitley.
