I saw them back in 89 at the Orpheum theatre in Boston mass with their alter ego Red Knuckles and the Trail Blazers. I saw a lot of great shows back in the 80s, but theirs was probably the most satisfying. A sweet memory I'll take with me to the grave.
I could hear Tim sing the phone book. He's the greatest bluegrass and folk music vocalist out there today. His writing is over the charts fabulous, also. These two tunes are just superlative writing and performance.
I’m pretty sure Tim jumps up to take the high parts in the choruses - in almost all of their songs. Watch closely - especially in Nelly Cain - Nick sings lead in the chorus - Tim shifts to tenor. They are so good at it - seamless.
