Please tell me where you got this video from! I've been looking for two years...

@PICKERY

I've made a DVD of one of their shows that a friend let me borrow. This is just one of a few songs from that DVD that I put here on the tube.

This is an absolute treasure! Must be right late in Don & Red`s partnership.

The first banjo tune I ever heard was Don`s "Dixie Brekdown" about sixty years ago; blew mw away big time. I had never heard a five sting banjo before but had one about two hours after I heard that recording being played by Ray Davis on WBMD from his little studio at "Johnnie`s Used Cars" in Baltimore.

Ray is still DJing at WAMU in Washington.

Thanks so much for posting this; makes an old man happy!

@PICKERY If you get the RFD Network, Ronnie Reno's bluegrass show (M-F 6:30 a.m. Central/ Saturdays 6 p.m) runs footage of the old "Reno & Smiley" program pretty regularly. I see this tune on there quite regularly.

Now this is fabulous bluegrass. They're all dressed so nice. Check out Don's great boots! Don & Red certainly were attractive men !  ..Not to mention their music! That's top-notch singin', fiddlin', and banjo pickin'! Kinda gives me goosebumps!

@JimmyDeLocke - Which is why they called their band the Tennessee Cut-ups... which later became the Bluegrass Cut-ups (without Don Reno)... which later became the Shenandoah Cutups (under Jim Eanes). Keeps 'em on their toes that way!

Is there any way to get ahold of that dvd? or the orginal video you made a copy of? do you by chance know the name?? that is just beautiful stuff

If this isn't the greatest bluegrass song ever......

Red does simple little rins that add a great deal to the music if your ear is tuned to bluegrass. I don't know that much about banjo playing but guitar music I get.
