- It's hard to believe that I've owned this banjo for ten years now and all the music that's been made with it. Here's a closer look at how everything got started. Thank you all so much!
All the best and keep rollin,
RC

What is your favorite song or moment from the last ten years?
There's a video of you backstage at Opry and Bela was apparently also there that night, and so a few of you were jamming on Dear Old Dixie. And the groove was amazing (I mean... it's Bela, what were you expecting), but what people might have missed was that behind Bela was a mirror, so you were visible and we could see your reaction as he played. And you were standing there going total fanboy. It was such a happy and serene moment and it came through in the video. For some reason, that moment sticks with me. It's about respect and the joy of being able to witness something beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us.
@@russellcarleton5602 That was also when Dennis Parker comments about Bela's picking. “Its like you’re on the verge of a mistake, but it never gets there”
All of them, I jam along with them all the time. If I had to pick Tommy Emmanuel and Jake Workmen playing was amazing.
For me, probably sunny side of the mountain with Josh Williams.
Hard question. I always go back to you eating tater chips while Jake plays. You offering Jake some chips. He didn't want any. Lol.
That banjo is just beautiful in every aspect
Great vid, thanks for your time . I 'll keep on listening and picking .
Cool history of Goldie- especially for a banjo nerd like me! (And those special buttons will be ready soon.....)😎
Russ love your banjo stories and your channel not to mention your banjo playing love from Ireland
I’ve been on a Gold Star CZcams binge since I recently bought a 81 Flying Eagle. Killer banjo I just need to learn to play it LOL
This was a great installment. Great that you have upgraded in many ways. As Audie said, no doubt, Goldie was your banjo. Instrument of a lifetime.
Ah come on, I've been wrong about all kinds of stuff, and you know it! I have ate my words about you buying that 81 Crowe Gold Star more than once though, and freely admit it, it's a dang good banjo!
Love y’all’s music
I always enjoy your videos, keep up the good work.
I love all of the little details that you find when you trace a musical instrument
Great to hear the back story of the channel, Goldie and your progression through the years. Hope to watch many more years of your picking’!
Really hoping you will keep up with this series. It's always interesting to know why the greats use the stuff they do. Hope you'll include some stuff about your setup, and whether you use the same setup for all the "Mastertone" style banjos, and how similar they sound as a result etc etc etc. When you tour, why you choose one over another to take. All that nerdy stuff, the more the better!! Please!
You were the one who inspired me to learn banjo, Russ. Keep up all this good work and inspire more people.
Love every thing you do thanks for all the great videos and great music it's been an education on all things banjos regards from ireland
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Russ, I just discovered your channel and some great videos of yours. Great playing from you and your buddies!! Goldie is a wonderful sounding banjo for sure!! Chris Warner was a huge help to me when I first started playing in the 80's. He built a couple custom banjos for me and did a tremendous job. I still play professionally and Chris will always hold a special place in my heat. I visited his Warner String Works in Hanover, PA many times. I hope he is well and in good health. Looking forward to more videos from you!!
Thanks Russ and God bless JD.
Thanks Russ, it's nice to hear about your instruments and the wonderful career you've had with them. I'm looking forward to hearing more.
That clip of the live JMB show is one of my favorite live sets of them up on CZcams.
I've got a very old Gold Star FE100 I traded a Gibson RB250 for and ever since I got it all my other banjos stay in the case lol I love the sound of this thing!
Great video and great milestone! Congratulations Russ!
Great video man!! Thanks so much for sharing!
I'm a 71 year old guy that only in the last few years came to have an ear for Bluegrass. I guess I'd have to blame it on the likes of Vince Gill and Allison Krauss for blazing a trail for me. The short of it is, I started listening to those SPBGMA hotel room sessions and some of the living room sessions you guys do...and I was hooked. There's a lot of talent in the world of Bluegrass. One of my favorite pieces is, "I've Waited As Long As I Can" from the hotel room sessions. But, there are many others. You guys (and gals) carry on. You're doin' good! ...Joe in Biloxi
This was outstanding.. Well thought out .. and carefully and tastefully done. No awkward pauses.. or "uhh"s. Fantastic instruments and a Fantastic player.
I really wish I could take lessons from you. I am a full time truck driver and I am learning on my own
Thanks Russ for all the wonderful music , and your passion , hope I get to thank you in person someday , I bought a Gold Star from Tom couple years ago ,,So wonderful to meet him , I love his playing! You guys are Great god bless
Awesome video, Russ! Congrats on 10 years!
A PA boy playing Gold Stars! I totally relate, bought mine in 86 from Bucks county musical instruments but I had a Warner String Works catalog in the 80s would have bought mine from Chris if he was a little closer, loved the sound of all the Gold Stars in the 80s. Tom Adams GS and your 81 Crowe are two of THE BEST of THE BEST.
Looked like you did a little Jim Mills impression lol!
that's pretty cool ownin' jd's banjo. a friend of mine has one'a dr. ralph's banjos.
Hey Russ you have done such a great job with your YT channel. So much wonderful music from so many. The banjo history lesson was so interesting. While you are so humble to thank your viewers for their support it is you my friend and your fellow musicians that make such great American traditional music twhich brings us all here. By the way @ @2:23 in - isn't that a young Eddie Stubs on fiddle? Thank YOU Russ for the hours of musical enjoyment you have provided especially during our "in house" 2020 year!
My wife bought a Cox banjo from Fairchild. Sounds fantastic
We love Mashgrass and 81 Crowe. Great work buddy!
You’re making a great thing here, long may it continue. Looking forward to the next decade’s worth of tunes I can ‘sit in’ on ☺️🪕
sick channel bro
Seen you playing with Skaggs and the rest of the thunder up in sellersville PA. Y'all need to come on back soon! I never seen an 81 Crowe vid I didn't like. Oh, you cracked me up.I am trying to break my pinky behind the bridge habit now! Lol!
I have an 81 Gold Star Archtop, , love it, action a little high.
Really dig your channel and it's definitely banjo-nerd nirvana hearing about Goldie's origins and connections to other great pickers.
Hey Russ,
Congrats on your CZcams channel! I recently bought a 1980 GF 100HF SN:800091 and I'm loving it. I've had a number of banjos through the years and the Gold Star has the most potential of them all.
How could I ever choose one performance, Russ?!!
Love this Russ!
i didn't know tom played with jimmy. cool!
What an awesome banjo
Found your channel many years ago, anybody that loves Bluegrass/Americana Roots music can't help but like your channel, thanks for sharing with us! And... if you ever get the opportunity treat us with some picking with you and Josh Williams! Don't know if you ever get to pick with him but it would be cool if you did! Thoroughly enjoy everything else though, feels like we get an inside glimpse at a lot of folks in music that we respect and of course we would die to be there playing with ya'll too. What a treat to be able to go to Ron Block's barn, so much good stuff you've shared with us, thanks again!
Thanks so much for hanging out all these years Bill! It's been an incredible journey and I'm so glad that I have been able to share some incredible memories with you all! To answer your question, I have picked with Josh and you can check that out right here! czcams.com/video/C8SMlzwe82Y/video.html
@@81crowe Oh I'm jealous now lol, defintiely checkin it out. Forgetful as I am I bet I've seen it lol!
Hey Russ...just saw you guys in Lancaster a couple days ago. I'm from Hanover so it was cool hearing some names I've known for years. I bought a guitar from Chris Warner many years ago and he's done work on several of my instruments. My banjo came from the late Hank Janney's Arrow Horse and I took lessons from Tom Adams. It's just neat hearing those names from a great player who's with the best band ever. KT!
cool!
Brother I don't know what you got going on ,,, But for me ,,, I miss the post ! I'm quite sure Thousands do too ,, but I know that Life can certainly Change directions , without warning ! But anyway I Personally used 81 Crowe as my get away Chanel ,,, many many times , I needed the roots and the raw ! again I miss ya ! God Bless each and everyone
My favorite is the Bus Tour version of Sally Goodin.
❤❤❤
Hey buddy seen u many times when u guys come to Iowa! U r just fun. Fox on the Run would be awesome sometime
I love the music you post here on CZcams. I would really like to buy some of the songs you have here on the channel. I first found your channel while doing a search for a song called "Sally Goodin" on CZcams. I was looking for the version by Flatt & Scruggs, which I used to have on cassette when I was young. But I clicked on your Bus Tour version of Sally Goodin and I think it is the very best version I have ever heard. I've been a subscriber and fan since that time. Like I said, I would buy your music if it was available.
Love your videos Russ!! I gotta know, where can I get one of those stands?
Wholly cats, Russ, we're really missing your videos! Everything ok?
I have 81046. Greg R confirmed he engraved it. You can hear it on my channel; alas, me playing. ha!
Miss your old Ford stuff in the videos like your Mustang shirts and the 427 SOHC model. Did you buy any old Fords with all of your earnings?
Did I see Eddie Stubbs on fiddle in a quick clip? Was that the Johnson Mountain Boys?
Hey brother! You're right on both counts!
