The reason that pioneers like Roy Acuff were so good is simple... where a lot of these greats grew up if you didn't play you didn't have music. Also if you didn't play in some cases you didn't eat. So your music and singing had to be awesome.
Never seen this video before. I recognize Pete 'Oswald' Kirby on Dobro, Racheal Veach on banjo and who I think is Jess Easterday on mandolin. Where is this from?

I believe the young woman standing to Roy's left (playing the bass fiddle) is Velma Williams Smith who was married to Hal Smith also of the band.
