The Del McCoury Band along with Vince Gill on All Star Bluegrass Celevbration II DVD. Recorded on April 2nd 2003 at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, TN
Vince Gill is great here. I wonder if young people who listen to the commercial trash that's called Country Music today ever scratch their heads and wonder what made the genre so popular over the years. I seldom even hear anything I like on the Grand Ole Opry anymore, now that all the legendary performers are gone. So I just listen to Bluegrass and my remastered CD's of the Carter Family. I once heard Bluegrass called the chamber music of Country.
Oh yeh we have a bluegrass group thats about 45 mins away from where I live of about 30 people all playing bluegrass. We love it when an American comes over to play for us. BLUEGRASS RULES!
I grew up with this shit with the old man and I hated it. When he died in 1994, I now listen to it every now and then when i miss him. Too bad i did not appreciated his music back then. I still listen to acdc, ozzy etc. heavy metal have some great guitarist. but when the blue grass get playing on the banjo..i can see dad lookin at me saying..pretty good huh? I pretended I loved it. but really i did. Whomever love this music..keep enjoying it.. its good shit.
I know what you mean dude. I live in England and there are a few people who appreciate bluegrass but you can't get hold of videos, tv programs or CDs with it on. The internets my only link to bluegrass, apart from my own banjo of course. Thanks youtubers for all these videos!
@bluegrassman56 I'm a Yankee...but I tell you what...country, and bluegrass musicians are just about the best in the world...and the harmonies are outrageous.
Great rendition of this Jimmy Martin classic. Vince was always well suited for bluegrass. He has a couple other great recordings on his 2006 album, These Days, with the Del McCoury Band-"All Prayed Up" and "Cold Gray Light of Gone".
This song was written by a friend of mine, named Bob Hodge of central Tenn. JM didn't give him credit, said he forgot his name when confronted by the author. I just wonder why Ronnie didn't do a break, it shoud have been elementary picking.
Sad to say, but bluegrassman56 is correct. Music has gone to hell in a handbasket. Even country has succumbed to tattoos and body schrapnel. This and old time mountain music are about the only music left that's worth listening to. So we get funny looks when we say we play bluegrass or old time music. Let 'em look. We'll see who has the last laugh.
I have the All Star Bluegrass Celebration on DVD but this song is not on it. Is theremore than one All Star Bluegrass Celebration DVD? This is a nice version of this song.
This here is what you show someone who asks just what is bluegrass,show them Walking Shoes with Vince and Del, That is bluegrass!
Del and the boys firing it up. Walking Shoes were on fire here.
your dam right to be proud about your musical culture.I love true american music.A rich Hertige.

VINCE IS ONE OF THE 'Greatest ever'
I love how the fiddle player and banjo player pay homage to the original

It doesn't get any tighter or better than this, Del and the boys + a great lead singer.
You could set your watch by this timing.
Really nice stuff!
It truly doesn't get any better than that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've listened to a lot of renditions of this song but this one is the best. Bluegrass forever.

beautiful, seamless rendition! Great sounds. I agree with the comments about Vince Gill's great playing and saying...

Vince Gill fits in with every type of music. Maybe if I got up to sing with Del McCoury's band they could even make me sound good. Not likely.
Now that I've watched the whole video I see that it's the 2nd annual All Star Bluegrass Celebration.
I guess bluegrass always have more rock n' roll than rock n´roll ever had.
I agree I get so much teasing from playing bluegrass. Theres nobody who will play with you either!

bad ass
@bluegrassman56 THANK YOU! HELLOOOOOOO.....People....This is TRUE!
@bluegrassman56 It's also one if not the most difficult genres to play and sing correctly. I know exactly what you mean.
we is cool
i hope the one dislike was a mistake, because i dont see how any one could not like this
Vince should stick with bluegrass ! He sure has the voice for it...
Kip Hemingway Anything he does is GREAT.
