  • Kenny Baker! Woooo!

  • @Stormclouds777 Yep, Kenny was among the best, but this was Tater Tate on fiddle.

  • beautiful!

  • Don't know much about this kind of music but they make a nice sound, happy and sad at the same time. The mandolin looks very old, are they like violins, and sound better as they age?

  • Bill Monroe's Gibson F-5 mandolin has a date on the label of July 9th, 1923. He bought it used in the early 1940s.

    Most instrumets that are played a lot do improve with age; in the case of Monroe's mandolin, this was especially true. At the height of his career, Monroe was playing way over 200 shows a year.

  • does anyone have the mando tab to this song? it would be much appreciated

  • THANK YOU, VERY MUCH! TRULY THE BEST!

  • Nothing like true bluegrass from the master himself. Thanks!

  • your righ true blue grass is the best

  • Awesome Song!!!

  • Beautiful piece.

  • Off topic but intersting: my dad owns a blueridge guitar that belonged to one of Bill's backup guitarists. He also owns a very old and beatin up Martin. Even after having a stick run through it, leaving two good sized holes, and floating in a flood, that martin may be one of the best guitars I have heard.

  • One of my alltime favorite Monroe tunes.

    Thanks

  • Southern flavor...why do I think of chicken?

  • Mmmmmm...I don't know which I like better southern style chicken, or bluegrass! I'll get back to you on that one! LOL.

  • Whenever I eat chicken I think of this song :D

  • Your welcome, LOL.

  • even at 76 he still kept a fine sound and great timing!

  • ...at his best, sir!!
