Don Reno's vocal harmonies are amazing.

[vcp430]

Is Don playing in A? Because I see Red capoed his guitar up two frets, and Don must be playing in different positions.

[gibsonrb75vl]

@vcp430 .... Yes Don is playing in A. Don spent most of his career playing without a capo . HIs ability to play out of different keys and still fit in the same licks and runs played out of different positions was something else.

yesssa

[viper74912]

he could  have been better if he had a Gibson

[bigmrclean]

@viper74912 If who had a gibson? Don Reno is playing a gibson.....Right nice one at that...Pre war!

I love to hear Red run the Martin, great music, I guess its gone ?

[striblingfh]

my parents had a cafe with a jukebox in 1953 in Cross Anchor S.C. this was the # 1 song played for weeks and weeks--

[bluemandos]

This is the pure stuff! Look at Don's right hand on his break, and listen to those G-runs that Red does on that D-45. Mac Magaha and John Palmer were really hitting those harmony parts. What a classic..........the pure bluegrass gold!!

[TruegrassBoy]

This is one of my favorite Reno/Smiley tunes. I'm sure glad you put it up on youtube. thnx!
