@@ianthatguyyfilms717 awful to say as im a cousin to Keith Whitley, so I shouldn’t say alcohol is cool or okay, but I actually like the 50s-60s drunk George.
MUSICIANS -- Does anybody understand the signal processing at 6:36 that makes a banjo sound like a steel? I also noticed the fast triplet-picking runs at 1:45 (Rocky Top) that also sounded like a muted steel. The banjo player was detuning and tuning back up to make it sound like a steel again....meanwhile the actual pedal steel player was just standing up not even touching his instrument. Was that a processed banjo too?
PS. Mac McGeyhee the fiddler trading 8 beats with the banjo player...LOL...that guy has so much zest in his playing, it's just exploding out of him. I heard one time the tip of his fiddle caught on the back of Dolly's wig while they were live on air LOL. He just played it off like it was a prank on purpose.
George showed up drunk to a show my dad was promoting. Tammy & the band played for 40 minutes. When she finally admitted Jones was "ill" half the audience got up & complained, wanting their money back. Dad cancelled the 2nd show. Lost venue rental, advertising, sound company. Took him two years to get back the artist deposit. He never promoted another show.
Porter treated the band great. He would take road expenses off the top, paid Dolly who was on salary, then split 50-50 with the band. Porter's band was making twice what other artists band members were earning.
I love that song, Rocky Top and George Jones finding his style
Dolly is so awesome
Dolly Parton she's like driven snow ❄️❄️❄️❄️ Lordy up above
From Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
Thank you for that music❤
i love country music in the morning❤
Oh god.
Shew buddy George is lit like the Fourth of July. Slurring real heavy and weaving all over the place but singing right on pitch
That's George for you!

Jim Carrey should play Porter in a Bio Pic. I can see the resemblance. Me, Myself and Irene.

Buck Trent and his electric banjo.

They knew they had to keep the Coalminers with decent music back then or else they would revolt
George looks like he’s had a few
That's a safe bet!
Is there a lawnmower around?

Porter was a self centered person
The way he treated Dolly, by call her.out then act like he did.😊

Dolly always stole the show.
