Best cover of this tune ever! Sam does this tune often in his live shows, always a treat! Always loved John Cowan's voice and style, he's damn good on Bass too! Thanks for the upload!
Been waiting to hear someone do that with a mandolin. Wish I'd known about them in 1992! Spilled milk now I guess, huh? Well, at least there is this great video!! Thanks for the post! What a duo! Great song. Good stuff.
Standing at the bottom of the stage in Flagstaff for this one at a county fair. Couldn't believe not people where there. OMG it was awesome. Thanks for posting.
Years ago could hear this all the time in Louisville, Ky. This performance was done in Louisville. New Grass based themselves in Louisville after John joined the group. There were a number of bars that they frequented. Got to hear new material being developed, especially after Bela's entrance. And there were always 'friends' that would show up and play with them.
You know, i ran sound for Sam and John in Evansville,In BITD. Blues band. I'm telling you what. Those guys can play. Also worked w/Sam an Emmie Lou w/ EPO, and John when he played at Bluegrass in the Park in Henderson,KY. Some people at the show said " that isn't bluegrass" but I differ. John is one helloaplayer! oops! he had a drummer. Love both of you gentlemen. I would love to work w/ you again.
seeing these guys around town is the main thing I miss about living in Nashville. One of the few Little Feat covers to justice to the original. "Truck Stop Girl" by the Byrds w/Clarence White on vocals is pretty nifty too.
that's what I thought until Sam & John did this! Not many can do a Little Feat song that I love as much as their version. I love these guys but was hesitant until I played it. Love it.
