Great song but your description is bullshit

[SqueezeMyLemonBabe]

ok, thanks a lot lol. I made that description when I was a wee little high schooler. I haven't changed it why? cause Im too fucking lazy.

Shady Grove isn't bluegrass. It's traditional folk, from the 18th century.

Who gives a flying fuck? Doc Watson is a BLUEGRASS artist, and since he did this tune, with a BANJO, STANDING BASS, and GUITAR, it SOUNDS like BLUEGRASS. Are you seriously that much of a music snob, that you have to bash what I labeled the music as, just because the song is a traditional song from long ago? you sound like the folks who get mad when people call romantic and baroque music classical music, even though its not from the classical period.

This is one of the greatest songs ever written. Every time I hear it it makes me smile and then it makes me a little sad. Then more smiles........

[Brianna Leigh]

I love this song!!!

[Victoria Jay]

[Richard Dunn]

Best description of the song I've ever read.

[bproudd]

true, the music is labled according to the style in which it is played. this artist intended it to be bluegrass an it is bluegrass. Thanks for posting it. sence the original was traditional folk, its hard to find a version that is bluegrass, truely made my day! =)

[John Spivey]

what the fuck does it matter if the description is wrong?

[John Spivey]

i honestly don't care what the description says. it doesn't change the song, so what does it matter?

NP. Doc performed a lot of traditional tunes from many locales!! This was one of them. He did trad, bluegrass, and other stuff.
