i love at 1:24 when Roland stumbles on his break and just kinda laughs it off, no biggie! i had the pleasure of meeting and jammin with Roland a few years ago at Oklahoma International Bluegrass Festival. He was very nice and told me lots of stories of the "old days" in the bluegrass scene.
To all the new modern "reso" players-notice Gene Wooten takes a break and plays the MELODY of the song like a "dobro" player should. I would suggest you modern players learn that it is not all about scales and some break that never hints of the melody. Oh how we miss Gene and Uncle Josh.
I was fortunate enough to see this group at the Kerville (Texas) Bluegrass Festival in the late '80s and meet them individually. The group at that time consisted of Bill Smith, Roland White (mando player in this video), Joe Carr and Alan Munde (banjo player in this video). Awsome harmony and excellent musicians. I still have a couple of vinyl albums by the group (signed), and pull them out ever once in a while to get my "bluegrass fix". So such gooood times!
I saw Country Gazette perform a tune, circa 1974, where Byron Berline stood behind Roland White, placed the fiddle under Roland's chin, Roland took the bow, Byron took the pick and they played a fiddle/guitar duet playing left hand of one instrument and right hand of the other. I am hoping someone has a video out there somewhere of this routine. Anyone?
Als ouwe Frieze zak (46) krijg ik bijna de tranen in m'n ogen. Toen ik ik dit in de 70ties zocht was het nauwelijks te vinden. Ja, bij Van Der Put aan de Voorstreek in Leeuwarden. Werd het voor jouw speciaal geïmporteerd.... maar dan moest je het wel kopen! Ook al viel het tegen. (lekkere griet werkte daar toen trouwens...'
It was better when bill
Smith played bass
