  • First time I've heard this hillbilly band...love it!...I couldnt stop laughing!...L.

  • beautiful recording

    The piano I have played many times and has been the joy of my children and grandchildren when they ask me "cowboy music." I never knew his name, and now that I bought a banjo I'm also running, and I knew his name thanks to youtube.Muchas by videoclip.Un who placed it in warm greeting from Buenos Aires Argentina, Jose Luis.

  • I love it . Whoever tries to tie old time to racism is really wasting the fans' time and it just plain sounds like some one is playing knowitall when there is no such thing as knowing it all . Here's a tip just enjoy the music that's all it was meant for.

  • my taste in music is realy messed up

  • I never knew Turkey in the Straw said nigger in it. xD

  • Reminds me when I was a boy and mom, dad, and I went to barn dances every Saturday night!

  • Hermosa grabación

    La he tocado en piano muchísimas veces y ha sido la alegría de mis hijos y nietos, cuando me piden " música de cowboys".Nunca supe su nombre, y ahora que me he comprado un banjo también la estoy ejecutando, y conocí su nombre, gracias a youtube.Muchas gracias a quien la colocó en videoclip.Un saludo cordial desde Buenos Aires Argentina, José Luis.

  • Greetings from Illinois! I'm glad you enjoyed this recording. They sure could play like no one else! If you haven't already, be sure to check out the other videos on my channel. I have posted 950 old time recordings from the 20's and 30's. Enjoy and have a great night, Brian

  • I never knew there was words to Turkey in the Straw. Are they traditional? I know Gid Tanner put his own to some of the old tunes, as did Jimmy Driftwood and others.

  • Good morning! I really don't know if these words were the Skillet Lickers' own creation or not. Like you, I've never heard these words outside of this recording, so it's entirely possible. I wouldn't doubt that's what it was, but I don't know for sure. I hope you have a great day, and thank you for watching. If you have the opportunity, be sure to check out the other videos on my channel, I have posted close to 900 old time recordings from the 20's & 30's. Hope you have a great day, Brian

  • This is the rootinest, tootinest band band east, south, west, and north of Pacos.

  • I'm glad you enjoyed it! They sure did have an energetic style. Thank you for watching, and be sure to check out the other videos on my channel. Hope you have a great day, Brian

  • Put the Skillet Lickers and the Fruit jar Drinkers together and you have a meal!

  • There you go! I don't know if it would be a balanced diet though.?

  • I enjoyed this song by these old_timers.

  • They sure were good! I'm glad you liked it and thanks for watching. Hope you have a great night, Brian

  • this is one of their best, i like those twin fiddles.

  • They compliment each other well. Gid and the boys sure were good! Thanks for watching and have a wonderful night, Brian

  • @mmw453 That's actually 3 fiddles you know! Bert Layne is playing the baritone fiddle, but he never gets any recognition for his work on these records.
