Fabulous...Hard to believe this was 25 years ago already - this interpretation is still as fresh today as it was then. Only the haircuts give them away!
Three amazing musicians, arguably the best in their instruments. Mark is known as a fiddler, but it is easy to remember, now, that he was the national guitar champion twice! (mandolin, once, and fiddle 7 times)
I have always considered Bela Fleck like a genius musician.Mark Oconnor surprises me on this one,no because he is a giant(I knew that!)but his playing is so ...wow!!!Killer tone,killer precision and...all the rest!
One of the most amazing musical performances on youtube, and only 2,444 views! Its a darn shame modern pop music can be such total crap and be so popular while actual talent is neglected by mainstream audiences.
I love the tone and spanish feel Mark got in his solo. Bela's solo was totally amazing, I think its one of his best.
Mark Schatz with a head full of thick hair! Almost didn't recognize him. I saw the excellent Czech band Druha Trava do this at Merlefest in the late 90's - great tune to show off your chops!
LOL they are just kids

@Raff365 Probably, the bassist isn't Edgar Meyer because it's Mark Schatz.
