Wendy Holcombe - Ole Slewfoot 

Miss Wendy Holcombe died of a heart ailment in 1987, she was 23. What an absolute heart breaking happening. She was so very talented, she could play several stringed instruments and did it very well. She was not only a very good musician but she played those instruments as good as anyone especially the banjo. She could play with the very best !!!

she's a cousin of mine, buried in my family graveyard in Alabama. rest in peace Wendy, such talent lost at a young age

No telling how big a star she would have been if she had lived longer. Truly a great talent and performer.

This one young lady had more talent than fifty of todays pop country acts.

What a girl boy can she play and sings so well God bless her unbelievable talent RIP Wendy.

What spirit she had. Personality like opening a bottle of warm champagne.

WENDY the real deal!! God bless, Wendy lives in our hearts always & forever! # goawaytay

A fantastic talent. Such a beautiful lady and soul.

I recall seeing her on TV when they called her Little Wendy Holcombe, said to hear that she passed away at such a young age. She really brought some nice spirit to the old classics. :P

She lived near us in Alabama, so we got to see her at a lot of local things. She was so pretty and so sweet, I had a huge crush on her. She was a really nice girl and it was so tragic when she passed away.

Knew her, her family, and visited Fox Valley quite often. Wendy was as genuine as one can be. She left us too soon.

I remember her all the way back to Country Boy Eddie Show.

Wendy was the reason I started watching "Nashville on the Road." I mean, you talk about a tremendous talent...and country music's all the poorer because Wendy Lou died all too soon. Thanks for posting this one, Randall!

Though she is gone, what a fucking talented individual. I'm blown away.

So, So, So, beautiful to listening to and I love it

I still love watching her videos.

One most gorgeous angel to listening to and I love you Big hugs and kisses to you my love

She is so talented.....one of the great female banjo players....

Wow she is really really cute! And a good picker!

Amazing talent. So glad we get a chance to experience it again. Thanks for the video.

Wow! What a talented beauty! And playing at Marineland... I wish I'd had the good fortune to be there to see this.

Wendy was 14 when this was recorded. Amazing.

I love masterpiece like this so great

I remember watching this performance on TV with my parents, so sad she passed away so young.

She has got to be one of the 10 or so greatest banjo players of all time...even though she left the scene much too soon!

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE "WENDY HOLCOMBE!!"

I’m here because of the algorithm, which includes Billy Strings and the Grateful Dead. Hot damn! Gone too soon. Rest In Peace, sister.

She looks like she's having such a good time.

Life doesn’t make any sense. Why do amazing souls like this one get taken away so young?

Angels are bless with love Big hugs and kisses

She was my grandpas cousin :)

One most gorgeous angels to listening to and I love you

A great talent. I miss her still

💓💓💓💓I love it gorgeous 💓💓💓💓

Wow! Johnny Horton would be proud!

R I P Wendy (1963-1987)

Wow, this piece is unlike any I've ever heard

Hot damn

Sure can pick! Wow

I love it

Watching this clip makes me know what it would feel like to be in a parallel dimension where Dolly Parton died tragically young. Ms. Holcombe had that much star potential.

Damn, just Damn...

Oh God she can pick!!

Super!!!!

Terrific.

Classic !!!

👏👏👏

Just saying if the bear looks like her prettiest bear I ever saw

Wow

She can go a mile a minute, this kid.

Reguiescat in pace

wow she was only 15 years old there

Bass player at 1:18 ....that dude has it made

Wow! Where did she come from?!!!! The Lord gave her a full life cause He knew He had to call her back early. They don’t make Sheila’s like that no more. Greetings from Crows Nest QLD. 🦘💨💨💨

This is pretty sweet! Anyone know if it was shot at the Marineland in the L.A. area?

I enjoy banjo music however I'm not impressed with her version of Ol Slew Foot. I felt it was more about showing off her banjo skills. Don't get me wrong, she is definatly a very talented picker. It just didn't do the song justice. To fast and banjo to loud.

There are 26 twats that actually didn't like this.
