I witnessed this song being worked up by the band, for the first time, at a festival they were running sound for. Yes they used to do that back in the day. Spent a lot of time with these guys and they were a major influence on me and my music. This music has stood the test of time. Dan was and still is a mandolin playing machine. Unmatched timing and clarity. The way Tim looked at him as he came out of his second solo....look of total approval and amazement. Great memories!
best version i heard. number two behind esrl scruggs and his two sons on the opry my number one and these boys here my second favorite version i ever heard. includes everybody.
We bluegrass lover's needs these guys back together for one more year but I doubt it ever happens Sammy is the only one still in the lonesome river band now days
“I even took the liberty of gassin up your car”. That’s as good as “don’t forget to bend your knees, when you pick up the box of your stuff I put out on the porch”.
