Dan Tyminski : I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow

Bluegrass great, the wonderful bearded Dan Tyminski, performs a beautiful version of the old Kentucky folk song "I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow", which he also famously recorded for the soundtrack of the Coen Brother's 2000 movie, "O Brother Where Art Thou?"

In 2000, Dan Tyminski recorded a solo bluegrass album, "Carry Me Across the Mountain", on the Doobie Shea Records label. "Wheels" followed on Rounder Records in 2008.

If you like this video clip, grab some cash and go out and buy the man's music!

Enjoy!

No point in one more idiot who noticed that Dan Tyminkski is great. But I'll say it anyway. Also, will mention that bluegrass is the most honest and pure American music in the world right now. Maybe we don't listen often because we don't know what to think about all these white guys with high voices.

To all: this is what's called REAL music. what it's about? who cares...it's real, it's pure, it's true.

No computer rap shit songs about t*ts and money, who cares about money...or fame or have the best stuff like fat cars...get a life...

@SavageSully Dick Burnett recorded this song in 1913, therefore --> Cover.

@SavageSully even if they are the ones who did the movie soundtrack it's STILL a cover. This is an old song, go listen to Roscoe Holcomb.

@pockets628 Hey dont hollar at me Jimbob. Anyway, I like the song, but he's from Vermont, why is he singing bluegrass? What do people in Vermont have to be sorrowful about anyway? "Oh!...our domestic immigrant minority workers didnt catch the ferry, so we had to fetch our own wine from the cellar." This fellar wasnt born OR raised in old Kentucky. Good recording though...

Is this from the BBC highland sessions? I recognise the squeezebox, fiddle and flute players.
