I know Johnny & Jack came out with this first but this is the best rendition. Love Jim & Jesse.

This is true country bluegrass music! The music nowadays is NOT country, no matter what anyone says.

[briartlaw]

Just great music great to hear..

[GodsFavoriteBassPlyr]

Super nice people, and unbelievably talented. 

Jesse wrote the book on bluegrass mandolin, and the group is a national treasure.

Theser boys are the greatest , sincere band and possibly the last!

[Fretkillr]

Nice. Johnnie and Jack recorded this too. I'm not sure who did first but it's a good'n'. Jessie's famous cross-picking mandolin in the intro. Great channel.

[500SmithandWesson]

Nobody can hold a candle to Jesse for playing mandolin.

[littleredbowgirl]

A Little Red Bow Girl Salute to my Bluegrass heroes: Jim and Jesse!!!!! :)

[shapeepster]

[antelope50]

They were simply brilliant at what they did

[briartlaw]

you said it great just the best..

[tpage6]

The greatest mandolin kick-off to a song there ever was!

[banjobgboy]

beboobeboo has no clue what he's talking about. J&J are awesome and besides this clip is from 1976..... they were cool then and this music is absolutely classic. Thanks for sharing

[adcooper21]

I love them. I wish people would sing like them more.

[beboobeboo]

haha I'm watching all these videos and in each one of them the banjo player's shirt gets more and more hideous...

[notbendable]

In 1976 that was supposed to be a cool shirt.

;-)

(and aside from J&J, the whole band is wearing matching outfits... including that shirt)

[beboobeboo]

... and after they bought the instruments, all the band could afford was two pretty nice blue suit coats and one big beige and red patterned tablecloth...

I just think it's funny how Jim and Jesse don't look silly in any of the videos but the backup guys just look so ridiculous.

Awesome music btw. ;D

[notbendable]

Garland Shuping on banjo and Joe Meadows plays fiddle.

[lblockco]

who is singing in center?

[CntryInVa]

I cheated--I didn't know either. Jim and Jesse's web sight list (and pic) Daniel Grindstaff as Banjo player...this video is from a ways back--but I think the banjo player is the same? "The Virginia Boys" have changed thru the years..but I think this is the same guy.--Either way--he fills in real good!

[notbendable]

It's Jesse's son Keith McReynolds.

Unfortunately Keith had multiple sclerosis, Jesse and his wife lost him on Feb 2, 2000. He was only 44 years old.

[geena6]
