The Wayfaring Strangers - Man Of Constant Sorrow

This is pretty wild. Jazz-inspired bluegrass w/Ralph Stanley!



I'm familiar with bluegrass improv on bluegrass instruments and a jazzy sound but this is totally different.

I was never a big jazz fan but this is great.

Did someone mention mandolin?

This is an amazing performance. Sierra Hull has to be my favorite mandolin player and Molly is, well, Molly Tuttle.
I have to watch this at least once a week.

Willie Nelson - Hit Medley On The Grand Ole Opry(1965)

Love watching this young man.



I actually saw Wille for the first time in 1973, he was a bit more hip by that time.

Julie Miller - All My Tears



This is a great song. Julie is a great songwriter.
Even though she came from a "Christian" music background she can really write. Together with Buddy, they put out some great music.
This song has been covered many times but the original is the best.
