SPBGMA Jam 2017 "Sitting on Top of the World" 

You know you got a room full of players when a guy needs help guy comes in and kills it on vocals. Great jam.

Anyone else still play this back at least once a month? Their energy is infectious

Wiley Bailey's backup from 1:29 to 1:33 and break at 1:41 may be the nastiest banjo recorded at SPBGMA this year. Mash, son.

Johnny meyer coming in like it was nothing!! Such a compact and tight group brilliant work!

Wow Wiley Bailey was on fire for this performance

Badass playing all around but hats off to the 2nd singer not even skipping a beat jumping in when needed

I've listened to it a hundred times. In my opinion, one of the best spontaneously played bluegrass songs. The boys are more likeable than the other!

To the 16 people who gave this video a thumbs down, you should be a shamed of yourself, your mama would be a shamed of you... or maybe your mama didn't raise you right to begin with! 😂😂😂 mighty fine pickin' and singing boys, mighty fine! Thanks for sharing your talents with the world via RU-vid... 'preciate y'all

Knock, knock Hotel manager: "How many people y'all got in that room?" Voice inside room: "Just one sir." Hotel manager: "How come I'm hearing all of those instruments?" Voice inside room: "I'm getting all of those from my moonshine jug." Throwback to the Darlins on the Andy Griffith Show. Great job guys!

I love how he didnt have to ask the guy twice to come sing and he just walks in and smashes it 😂

It's April 2021 and I just wanted to say that I come back to watch this video all the time! A gem.

The toothpick is priceless!

These young men flat out burnt it down!! I love it

WOW!!!!!! This is "hard drivin' bluegrass" at its best.

That is some of the best picking ive ever heard

That banjo solo was outta this world!!

Geeze. That banjo player was really smoking on this song. Great instrumental performance

I just keep watchin' this over and over. Love it!!

If I was your hotel room neighbors, I wouldn't even be mad. 😆

This is just freaking AWESOM!

Oh man, I miss being able to go to bluegrass jams! This was great, they just killed it.

OUTSTANDING as usual !!!!!!

This is life!!

Daggum, I love when this pops up on my youtube auto play. Wiley man, you crushed this SO hard.

Boy boy they can all play. I love it.

This may be the coolest effin bluegrass video I've ever watched. That fellow owned that toothpick and those vocals. And they missed half a beat looking for the vocals but how they all jumped right back on it was superbad.

Ooooh this makes me so happy! Love those smiles and love how the guy doesn’t skip a beat and jumps in with those vocals.

Listened and played along a zillion times. Still awesome.

This is excellent. Absolute top tier

What a blistering banjo!!

That's a while lotta dexterity in one room! Awesome to see this old art form alive and kicking! You guys are all true musicians.

Outstanding. And they look as though they’re having a blast. Love it.

Was in the spring One sunny day My sweetheart left me Lord, she went away And now she's gone And I dont' worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world She called me up From down in Al Paso She said "Come back, daddy Ooh, I need you so" And now she's gone And I dont' worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world (break) If you don't like my peaches Don't you shake my tree 'n Get out of my orchard Let my peaches be And now she's gone And I dont' worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world And don't you come here runnin' Holding out your hand I'm gonna get me a woman Like you got your man And now she's gone And I dont' worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world 't Was in the spring One sunny day My sweetheart left me Lord, she went away And now she's gone And I dont' worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world

Hot doggies, you boys have me grinnin like a possum!

More fire. Do you guys have a band name or you just do it for fun?

Hey Wiley, is there any chance you could show me all those riffs you're playing on Sitting On Top Of The World? Tabs or anything? I'd really appreciate it.

Freakin John tho...

Fast but what else ya got?

Where can I hear more of the guitarist? That man's got machine gun hands

Rain and snoe

Who is the mandolin and banjo players???

What is the full name of the second singer who jumps in? I would like to hear more of him.

Sweet! I think the Dillards would have enjoyed it.

Almost forgot to watch this today... but I didn't!

What is the name of this group?

No that's bad to bone right there.

Them boys play like they’re double parked.
