BLUEGRASS COUNTRY SOUL

Bluegrass Country Soul captures the sights, sounds, and magic of this three-day outdoor festival, the first of its kind, featuring bluegrass veterans and future stars alike sharing the primitive wood and cinder block stage. This documentary does more than just capture on of the largest bluegrass festivals of that decade, it's also an interesting mixture of live performances, interviews, impromptu jam sessions and crowd footage of live music set in a small town surrounded by the now long gone red clay and tobacco shacks of North Carolina.

  • @giggleblaggle Well said (also great points in this thread by Khalilullah and TylerSDodson).

  • Like a dream come true. No more bookmarking 3minute clips. 86 minutes fine quality unadulterated bluegrass as pure as you can wish. Txxxxxxxx!!!!!!

  • Awesome!!!!!!! 

  • @TylerSDodson Yes the African instrument is not the same as the banjo, but that's not the point. The point is that those instruments are the closest resemblance to the aspects of the banjo, and if you listen to the playing styles, they are very close to those of early banjo styles. With the slave trade, it seems fairly obvious that Africa is probably the root of the development of the banjo. Much like all other styles of music in America, there were probably influences from other cultures also.

  • @TylerSDodson I agree. The Banjo that we know isn't African. Nearly every instrument comes from somewhere else; the Chinese Pipa, Erhu, Suona & Yang chin come from Persia, the lute and guitar come from the Arabic countries, the Indian Tabla and Sitar come from the Arab countries and Persia, and on, and on. You aren't going to tell a Chinese person that the Erhu isn't Chinese. :)

  • RickRiman...it is me at 8:09. Some alias! I don't know who Steve Whalen is How did you know it was me by the way? Wait I see a comment I made. Guess that gave it away.

  • RickRiman...it is me at 8:09. Some alias! I don't know who Steve Whalen is How did you know it was me by the way?

  • @poindexful Is that you at 8:09? And is the guy on your right fiddling Steve Whalen (now a federal judge)?

  • An 8-year-old Missy Raines shows up at 57:11. She grew up to be one monster bass player.

  • I have watched over 22 minutes of this great video. I have got to go, but I really enjoyed this very much! I,ll return later to see the rest. Thanks!
