- For one historic evening, American music legends Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson and Ricky Skaggs joined forces as the three pickers, to film a concert for public television. The music they made before a North Carolina audience is as relaxed as a front porch picking session, informed by the skill and good humor of three master musicians who contributed so much to the creation and evolution of bluegrass music. With special guest Alison Krauss

I met Ricky Skaggs in a barbershop in Weatherford, Texas.
I’m buying my first banjo at the age of 60
Happy Heavenly 100th Mr. Scruggs🪕
I have listened to this video so many times and it remains the best performance of Bluegrass music by Masters, ever!! I was born to love Bluegrass music even though I was born in South Africa. God bless the Late Earl and Doc as well as Ricky for doing this. You get a Bluegrass history lesson as well. Magnificent!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤🎉🎉😢😮😮😅😊😊😊😅😅😅😅hooikmm i love. It
I was fortunate enough to see Doc Watson in concert at the historical Midland Theater in Newark, Ohio a few years before he passed away. It was one of the most wonderful experiences that my wife, eldest son, and I ever had. The theater was sold out, and Doc had the whole crowd in awe of his performance. The man was past 80 years old even then. What a national treasure Doc Watson was, and still is to America. God bless Doc, and his (late) son, Merle Watson.❤
I don't know how anyone could not love this music. The picking is by masters of the art and incredible. The song selections were a panorama of mountain music unparalleled. Wonderfully poignant and fun at the same time. This is country music. All the rest today pales in comparison.
The music takes me back to a simpler time. When life seemed so sweet and peacful. A time long past and witch may never come again are gone forever.
That's some of the finest music ever played. Hands down
I grew up in East Tennessee and was fortunate enough to have seen all those musicians more than once but never together like this. Love them all.
Thumbs up for BLIND Doc. WATSON.He can see this, sing fpr thee
A genius at heart ❤️ Love you brother 😅
I'm from Buffalo, NY and i love bluegrass and have met Bill Monroe and many of the other great players. I already have this but thanks a lot for sharing this with others. It is a classic. I miss all the good ole boys.
Thank you people for showing me how to dancing,really looked likegoody dancing❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Absolute brilliance! Thank y'all for that!
Earl, Doc, Ricky, Allison and Douglass. Simply the finest mountain music has.
Excellent, thanks for posting this!
This is definitely the best.
1 hour ago didn't know about these 3 legends. 11 minutes into this vid when them 3 go up on stage together for the first time, I had a smile so wide on my face you'd think I grew up in a Kentucky holler
I'm happy Allison got in on the show she is wonderful I love her playing great song yes good lord show me the way
I am 68. The first time I ever heard bluegrass was the Beverly Hillbillies theme song and I have been hooked ever since. It’s heavenly music.
Some of my favorites, so great to see them all together!
Let that be a lesson , Good ol Boys , That' l learn ye....

Now THIS is country music!
Right on
I treasure the memory of seeing Doc Watson in the Troubadour coffee house Earls Court, London UK in 1962 . What an awesome atmosphere in that packed cellar bar
Truly, a landmark presentation.
Gives me chills and tears at the same time........
Wow! This is an absolute gem! It does not get any better! have been a fan of blue grass for more than six decades. Thank you for showing this performance!
Doc was always top of the list as agreat guitar picker I loved his pickin it had a sound so pure ❤ and Ricky he is all around tops as musician I'm from Duncan Oklahoma
I live in Canada now but in the early 80s we brought equipment to Oklahoma to work in the anadarko deep basin my brother lived in Duncan the rest of us lived in lawton we worked out of fletcher ok went there a few years ago the little town was a ghost town
The first time I heard Allison Krause sing was at my Uncle O'Neal's. He wanted to know what I thought. I said Her voice is so sweet I think its the closest thing I think I've ever heard to an angle singing. He said I think she lives just down the road from you. Hard to believe!
Angel
Allison is an angel.
Beautiful, just beautiful.
...and thank you mr. eddie stubbs!
Never seen Earl smile so as he is playing with Doc and Ricky
You ain't American if you don't love bluegrass!!!
Good lord to be a fly on the wall here so much raw god given talent
So much talent on that stage,with just the three, not to mention the members of Kentucky Thunder, Andy Leftwhich, Jim Mills, You won’t find more talent on one stage
Great show, Ive been listening to bluegrass for over 50 years, I don’t know how I started listening, because I grew up in NJ not exactly the bluegrass capital of the world, three of the best pickers on their instruments right here.
MAGIC❤️❤️❤️❤️
It gets no better than this.
fantastic
I’m speechless! Perfection! much love from Paris❣️
Earl Scruggs along with Bill davis were my favorite banjo players I played with Bill davis for many years and doc Watson was great I love his guitar pickin
Bluegrass is one of the pillars of Rock and Roll music. When you listen to fast-paced, intricate music, it is easy to see where heavy metal got it's root s. This is especially true regarding Bill Monroe's Hard Driving Mandolin!
This is simply great music played by three unique masters. It is great music because of the depth of expression--joy, sadness, energy , humor---well I could go on blabbing about this performance forever!
Don't know about you but in the fisrt Skaggs piece I coulk hear the hills of Kenk and Tennessee and all the way back to Scotland, Wales and Erin
Folk music!
Saw Doc at the Philly Folk Festival back in 2007!!! Aaaahhh.....🎵🎶🎵
I first saw Doc at the Club 47 in 1962. The jazz kids from Berklee were stunned!
Best show iv seen in a long time love it
Love them all. Thanks for sharing. Jo (France)
ultimate JOY.🤩😍🥰🦮🐶🐣🐤🐥🐦🐣🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌙🌚🌜🌛
Holy perfect pickin'!!!! Just astounding! 💚
WELL NOW IT JUST DON'T GET MUCH BETTER !!!
I grew up on blue grass music my dad worked all 3 of them I got to meet Ricky and Earl on some blue grass festivals
Jimmy, if you love it learn to _spell_ it! One word. Bluegrass.
The album is from 2003.
It’s a fantastic album.
I love quartet singing 🎶 my dad had a all male quartet they started in 1956 they were the fbi quartet fbi stands for full blood Indian they all over everywhere all through the sixties that's where I get my playing and singing from I also write gospel songs iv wrote over 200 songs I played with dawn Anita plumlee joe diffie aunt
😊I totally love bluegrass music. Unfortunately I don't have anyone to play with. I reckon most have passed away.
There's certainly a bluegrass club in one of the small cities near you. Great old songs and 3 chords...what's not to love? Check the local senior citizens center; they'll probably have a musical get-together scheduled once a month. Once you find your peeps it just mushrooms.
For those of you who are around 40 years of age, you'll hear the sweetest words: _it's so nice to see you young folks comin' out!_
Maybe the best live show I have ever seen. When Allie comes on for "Storms on the Ocean", everybody started crying. And, then we got "Down in the Valley".
The only reason to. Listen
I will never forget 5yr old Ricky asking to pick with Earl
Four AMERICAN treasures. This is absolutely AMAZING 👍🏼😎
THIS PRODUCTION IS JUST TOOOOOO GOOD FOR WORDS!!! Thanks for sharing...
A sleeping human is music.

Legends!
Hill Billy Jazz!
awesome
Such a beautiful communion of beautiful spirits... Not just performers, brothers and sister in music.
I got this on CD/DVD when it first came out. It takes musicians like these to make a live performance sound as good as something done in the studio. No auto-tune or quantizing necessary.
Yea the d Ken I knew was a donkey also. Looked like the backside of a mule.😂
People (non-musicians) have no idea how rare a _live_ performance like this is.
Folks, it just doesn't happen.
What a treasure this is, I will admit, though, Ricky Skaggs first came out until I listen to him. He came out with that little Miami Vice tie. I didn’t like them because of his appearance, until I heard him play again what a treasure this is for history.
true inspiration of american spirit 🎉
WOW, i love it..
wonderful
Wow absolutely fantastic, Don here from Hamilton NZ, yes totally top class playing too, beautiful instruments an' great harmonies 😮
Love them all. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks the Lot. Ist IT texted? To sing with. - Ore noted? To Play with you? Greatings from Ratisbona.

When you watch this documentary, especially if you listen to Bill Monroe, it is very obvious why Bill Monroe is a member of the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame.
I have the DVD and the CD. electric!
Fantastic performance! Many thanks for posting
The Duncan arts council is finally putting billy joe foster in the council hall of fame
Extraordinary!

Very enjoyable performance!
I hear a distinct connection to Ireland when Ricky Scaggs plays. Whiskey and stuff.
Whiskey Before Breakfast!
I agree ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jesus ,Holds you, in his arms. wiggle it. pick it.
Amazing story...🍀🎸👍
@World Bluegrass Day, I wish posters would always include the dates of recordings. When researching this precious music, it is important to know.
The release date was July 15th 2003. So it probably wasn't to long before that. I was wondering the same thing
@@mrDCunningham, thanks so much for your reply. How did you find the release date? I wish all posters on any topic would include dates of recordings. Thanks again.
@@m.c.master4622 it was a special that aired on PBS. I just looked it up. Best regards
@@mrDCunningham, always nice to see a quick and pleasant response. Appreciated!!
sing 4 you. I will
Where is Ridin’ That Midnight Train ?
I ❤️ love doc he always looks confused cause his eyes 😕 but he's riding that guitar like a bull riding rodeo champ 🏆 and we're the ones that look confused 🤔 but with a smile 😃 American 🇺🇸 folk hero for sure Ricky looks like a little kid looking at his heros
You seem confused
Doc never looked confused -- when he was playing or not. He didn't ride the guitar like a bullrider. He pulled music out of it like it's the bridge between his heart and our ears. But, yes, Rick does look at Doc and Earl like they're his heroes because they were two of his heroes.
And now Ricky is a hero to a new generation. IMO Ricky is in the same celestial league with Earl and Doc.
RIP Jim Millls, 5/6/24
this was from heaven. just wonderful! it must have been amazing to be there!!
Pride of Cacka Lacky
Yep
I sure miss Martin Parker. Nobody picked a drum like him.
Does it get any better than this?!
No. It don't.
Sheer virtuosity.
Chris Scruggs that plays with Marty Stuart,Earl Scruggs is his grand pappy
Troy black just warned a blue grass legend is about to go home to Jesus. Never take those you love for granted.
what was the date of this great event ? guessing early to mid 2000's
When was this ?
29:40 😂
Paul Brewster, the best singer on that stage. End.
