This is the Del McCoury Band at the absolute height of their powers, in a live performance at Central Alabama Music Park, Jemison, Ala., in 1986.

Del's brother and bass player Jerry McCoury takes the lead vocal on this one.

The performance was originally aired on a show called "Alabama Jubilee" on Alabama Public Television. I discovered it while going through a stack of 20-year-old VHS Hi-Fi tapes I made back in the day.

  • What ever happened to Jerry McCoury? Is he still in the music industry? I've never heard of him until I saw this video. Of course I wasn't born yet in 1986.

  • Jerry was in the Scott Brannon Band, at least for their 2002 release, "Mountain Lady"... I'm not sure what he's been up to since then. Anyone?

  • Freddy Mercury on fiddle and Robin Williams on bass ?

  • You know, I hadn't thought about it, but yeah! Rick Campbell DOES look kinda like Freddy Mercury, and Jerry McCoury definitely looks like Robin Williams, ha ha!

  • Del's the one everybody knows - and we all know how great he is all the way around, but DO NOT overlook his younger bro, Jerry - an awesome singer and slap bass man. And when this brothers sing a duet - WATCH OUT!

  • not a fan of Jerrys voice, os his slapping on the bass.

  • Just saw Jerry last night with the Scott Brannon band (4/4/2009) at Lucketts Va. Jerry is still with him and still an awesome bass player.

  • Well Jerry McCoury was driving a Mack dump truck in Hanover pa. last year. And yes its the same Jerry, Del's brother

  • This is fucking great.
