  • a very pretty song and this band does it very good

  • Really good.

    

  • how is your dobro tuned --open g?--thanks

  • This is how bluegrass is supposed to sound!

  • whoops I meant Millstone, KY,

  • Moma passed away one month ago today and when I was a little girl sang this song to me, I would ask her over and over and she would do it. As she was dying i sang it to her, she was born March 24, 1931 in Mayking, Letcher County, Kentucky.

  • this song was written by Judge Joseph Cornett of Letcher County Kentucky in the late 1800's or early 1900's. I first heard in when the Iron Mountain String Band

    Performed it on the Jane Fonda movie,

    THE DOLLMAKER. It is a very captivating song. I performed it at a funeral for a 4 year old boy back in 2000 whose funeral I had to preach. The family was very touched.

  • Great ,you folk would compare to the Country Gentlemen's recording.Gotta have your C D

  • Outstanding!!! Done the right way. Drive it!!!!

  • Good Lord! All the band is very good, but I'm partial to the banjo player... she has a darn solid touch, and a great tone! Real real good stuff!
