    Norman played dobro on some early seminal recordings (including Doc Watson stuff) before the era of Mike Auldridge and Jerry Douglas

    WoW, what a legendary
    dobro player. Norman Blake's dobro playing
    on many of Johnny Cash's 1960s recordings is simply
    fantastic.

    He creates such beautiful sounds with this instrument and makes it look easy. I do not think it is easy

    Yes, it's from Saturday June 2nd, 2012. A rare performance indeed. I was very fortunate to not only attend, but to record a few tunes.

    I would like to thank everyone that has hit the "like" button on this video. I'm not a "CZcamsr" per say, so I haven't monetized this channel, but in the near future, I would like too, because I'll be living on social security when I retire and it would be very advantageous if I could supplement my meager income with a few CZcams bucks.
    So please, if you could, like and subscribe to my channel.

    So as write Dan Frechette "I love Norman Blake; He inspired me and my -on acoustic Martin guitars- lead guitar technique about the LP "Red Rector and Norman Blake" -you can find on CZcams- For information to all CZcams subsribers : Norman Blake played nice dobro on the 1972 "Will The Circle Be Unbroken" (Nitty Gritty Dirt Band)

    Great song well played. Norman's dobro playing is perfect. I wish the sound quality was better. Thumbs up anyway.

      Yeah, the audio isn't great. Recorded with a Samsung Galaxy S7 Active. At least I was able to sit close. :)

      If you don't like the dobro, why are you watching? Norman Blake is one of the most revered dobro players ever.

      @@t4texastom587 I like the resonator guitar. I used to play one myself. Norman is a pretty good resonator player, but his flat top is much better. Play what you play best. I can play the same tones as Blake on the flat top, but I can't make it sound like Blake.

      What do you expect from an audience member sitting on the floor, 10 years ago, recording with a hand help samsung Galaxy S7.
      And out of the current 39,133 views, you're the only one to bitch about it. What a sad ass life you lead.
