Ricky Skaggs can take a great song and make it better
-
Andy Leftwhitch is awesome.

I don't like this version much. The song really doesn't lend itself to the bluegrass treatment very well. The original kicks ass though. Not that these guys aren't excellent players.

@MrTrailltrader No, I'm saying I've written enough...if you wanted to find the show you would have done it by now.

Are you saying that a simple computer program has managed to outthink you?

@MrTrailltrader Youtube wont let me post links in comments, can't you figure it out from the info I gave you? Smart-ass....

And pray tell, where is this video tape with the most excellent songs?
Yeah thats what I thought,,,,great on paper, and turned into vaporware

The best recording of this song ever was Telluride Bluegrass Festival 1989....much better audio quality and with MANY special guests. (Sam Bush, Bela Fleck, Jerry Douglas and New Grass Revival) You can find the whole show on Internetarchive or just google: "telluride Hornsby 1989 ozzybeef" the site with the link is ozzybeef.



This ranks up there with the version Bruce did on Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's album "Will The Circle Be Unbroken - Vol II". I like the more upbeat tempo and I think both versions (the original and the bluegrass version) are very well done. You can't change the beat on many songs like that w/o ruining the song. Thanks for posting it. :)

No problem, glad you enjoyed it. Wish the video was better, I kind of had to keep the camera down, venue wasn't particularly friendly to taping :-)
