  • Sadly I wasn't exposed to his music until after his death, but wouldn't have liked this sort of music when I was younger. It's ironic how our musical tastes can broaden when we age.

  • John is right this is a Bluegrass song and not Pop.After all he wrote this ,so he should know.

  • John was a musicians musician, a songwriters songwriter. We all know how great he was. RIP John

  • The big Disco sign behind him is hilarious! This song is the antethesis of it! RIP John

  • Real music, this.

  • Come join us at the John Hartford Memorial Festival May 31-Jun 2, 2012 at Bean Blossom, Indiana to celebrate John life & his music.

  • @ didold..thats not called a banjo..its actually a pair of bagpipes,; a hindoo instrument usually played by striking the keys with a dead virgin's toe-jam.

  • Between 1971 and 1979 my dad and I listened to John's

    'John Hartford Looks at Life' every Saturday morning. That album and his words define who I am.

    When dad passed in 2009, I did 'Today' in his honor on at his service on a Saturday morning on the banjo. John's music has been a wonderful part of my life and my life with my dad.

  • John never got his due. I really miss him and all of the music he could have made. Gone too soon, he was one of the most versatile and talented pickers, song writers and singers on the planet.

    This video is a great example...no band or accompanyment, just John pickin', singin' and dancin' a little softshoe to accompany himself.

  • that instrument is a banjo
