@@DRayL_ Amazing story. Born blind, lost much of the hearing in one ear due to a childhood ear infection. Learned violin at age 4. Graduate of the Kentucky School for the Blind and the pride of Charlestown, Indiana.
I think Molly qualifies. It is so wonderful that the Bluegrass world has so much depth and that Bluegrass beats in the hearts of yet another generation. Thanking God.
World-class musicians showing us why they're world-class musicians. Great job. These are the kind of musicians when they come around you just put your instrument back in it's case and sit there and listen in wonder.
I've briefly met Molly, Bella, and Jerry. and I can tell you they are world class. Not only as musicians, but as people. It's kind of why I love bluesgrass so much. And not doubt Mr. Cleveland and the rest are great as well. It's the core, the foundation, the utter substance of why this music will never die.
I am ALWAYS so amazed how Bela can pull together such outstanding groups of musicians to play his creations and the switch various musicians in and out seemingly at will and still have the same great results. I just saw him play this last weekend at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass with a different fiddle, guitar and dobro, yet it sounded just as wonderful. He's as much an artist at building a band as writing music!
Yep. Sierra played mando on this track in the record. Can’t remember who played fiddle, but I don’t think it was Mike. I’ve seen this concert on two different occasions.
A true music genius that comes around once in a lifetime if you’re lucky. In my opinion he is in that stratified air that Tony Rice was while he was here awing us with his genius. And Bela dedicated this album to Tony.
A modern day Mozart. Such a collaborator. He brings out the best in everyone he surrounds himself with. And from interviews, they inspire him just as much. Such a joy to watch him in his element. Can't wait to hear what his boys will do, with the mom and dad that they have. The next generations are in for a treat!
With such a line-up and fusion of genres, I am hoping record company execs are informing Bela Fleck there is easily a Grammy Award winning album in the making.
I thought that was Dominick. I did not know he was playing with any of Bela's "My Bluegrass Heart" configurations. I have seen Dominick a few times with Hawktail. It was fun to see him with Bela these masters.
@@Chance-ry1hq No it's not the cords, keys and rhythm are all wrong for jazz. the major elements come from bluegrass.this is jazz.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GIbL9uw139s.html
Wait wah wah wah what??! He's doing WHAT at the beginning?!? Bela is the greatest banjo player there will ever be. What an innovator for the instrument. ❤️ Edit: he's doing that tuning technique for most of the song?!
They're standard banjo tuners. If you want to see some other impressive in-performance uses, check out "Midwest Sunday" by Adrian Legg. He does this a lot.
Jerry Douglas is from West Virginia. Dominick Leslie from Evergreen Colorado, Molly Tuttle from Palo Alto California. A couple of years at Berklee does not make them Bostonians...
