Tony will undoubtably go down in music history,especially amongst musicians and bluegrass fans as one of the greatest flatpickers of all time. Add to that his deep love of great songs and songwriters and his great baritone voice,he will be inpossible to ever replace.God bless him and his family for sharing their wealth of talent with us all.
This is a huge tip of the hap to Gordon. Canadians should be grateful he did this and not bash it calling it "white trash" music. Tony is amazing, and his love for Gordon will never be forgotten. Bluegrass is NOT country. It is a chronicle of the Irish struggling in the Americas. Let's not forget it's roots.
Cant imagine a how good a songwriter feels to have his song so beautifully done by someone like tony who truly respects great artists. Hats off to Tony & Gordon
makes me smile no end... lets see, great bluegrass voice, best acoustic guitar of all time, plays just slightly ahead of the beat for best way of driving a tune forward with the right intensity and power.... all done with that precision and soul he paints with..
Thanks for this post! Tony! Tony! Tony! What else is there to say? Good stuff wether on CD or 33LP. I still like to get the old record out and remember times gone by. Thanks again!!
I just love Tony Rice!!! :D <3 I have myself played guitar for about 5 years, and I bought a new bluegrass guitar a few months ago. Me and a friend loves to play this cind of tunes :)
Thank you so much for posting this awesome video:-) I went out and bought a martin because this song inspired me to. Then I figured out that I couldn't play it.lol Theres only one Tony Rice...
LOVE Jimmy Gadreau's mandolin style! His break on the studio version of this is amazing...
