Actually, the spelling is Ten Broeck. He beat Aristides the week before the Kentucky Derby in the Phoenix Stakes but then lost to him (Aristides) in the Derby...finished 5th, I think. He did a 7 minute 15 second 4 miler which was and may still be a record....not sure. Who runs that distance anymore.
The mando break wasn't that bad, just a few too many licks. Charlie Cushman is indeed top notch... But Dave Peterson is fantastic. It's like he stepped right out of the '40's. Makes me think of Bill himself with a bit of Mac Wiseman thrown in. Is there a better tenor singer in bluegrass today? Don't think so!
The banjo player played stuff all through the song, and the mandolin player--I have no idea what he was trying to do on that first break, but whatever it is, it didn't work.
this is as great as it gets ,thanks for postin

at 0:23 Charlie puts an awesome lick in there--didn't see that one coming, but it sounds like something Reno might do.

David looks like he's using a thumb pick like Carter and Lester did. Anyone know who the banjo player is?

Hey Guys ease up on the mando player. He is in a band called 1946. I think he played just like they did back in 46.

Mickey Boles, the mando player, is a good player and a mighty fine tenor singer. Not every band can have Mike
Compton or Ronnie McCoury.

That was a Monroe-style solo using mostly downstrokes and some hard triplets over two beats.

I agree, I'm no mando player but I think he could have thrown in something a little better there.
