He's such a fantastic guitarist! Everyone focuses upon his songwriting ability, which makes sense, because he's an incredible lyricist, but we shouldn't forget the fact that this guy can flatpick like Doc Watson and hit country-blues riffs like Lightnin' Hopkins!
What MLIN20 said - you couldn't get Merle Haggard played on country radio nowadays except with a bag o money or a gun. (Hey, there's a song in there somewhere)
I just discovered Darrell Scott and all i have to say is that I really enjoy his style and pretty much all of his works. An amazing artist with so much talent!
Nuthin' like playin your ass off live..... One take... go for it and let it rip, baby!!!!!!!!! The best kind of music..... Real, and pure...... Peace, George
My guitar teacher gave the Real Time album for my b-day and I had never heard of Darrell or Tim at the time but now its my personal favorite Im just waiting for them to make another
This is great! I've known Darrell 3 years now because he is my husband's uncle, and I never knew what a big deal he apparently is! I knew he was a musician, songwriter, etc. But around here he's just Darrell. This is so cool! LOL
Thanks for the response, since I wrote that question, I found out that it is a Taylor, Koa that isnt produced anymore. Though I have found a Takamine Koa with electronics that is new out and I am currently looking at.
I never heard about these guy bevore.(i'm from europe) and this is amazing. the way he plays and the way he sings is wonderful and i really love his voice. so i ordered nerly all his cd's.
Thanx for posting,otherwise i missed a very great musican
Great song and guitarist

I've always loved the chicks version of this song, but this version is just unbelievable. Straight from the heart to the hands and the voice...

Most players dread not having any backup but with Darrell, anything extra would just take away from his performance. Amazing rythm and feel.

When he said that it was "sort of about them" he meant the Country Music Stations that he had just referred to not the Dixie Chicks . IMO

I've been trying to figure out forever what guitar he's playing. He's always playing that axe and I can't ever see the make. Taylor, Gibson...?
hagtar12 3 years ago
Looks more like a Gibson to me, doesn't have a cut-out and the frets give me that impression. But it could also be one of the new Taylors...
