Wayne Henderson & Friends Playing Sweet Georgia Brown

The Virginia Humanities Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts celebrated the National Heritage Award Winners living in Virginia. On July 22, 2007, a concert was held in Grayson County Virginia featuring persons from Virginia designated as "national treasures" for their skills in performing traditional music. This is Sweet Georgia Brown documented from Wayne Hendersons time on stage. Wayne was playing with his talented friends, including: Jeff Little, Herb Key, and Jimmy Edmonds.
This was shot as part of the Appalshop documentary film, From Wood to Singing Guitar, about Wayne Henderson (the master musician and master luthier from the small town of Rugby, Virginia near the foot of Mount Rogers, which is the highest point in Virginia).

This is a great version of this. Ya gotta say that the keyboard player is just about as good as they get. Wayne's fantastic too..heck, they all are!!!

Probably Jeff Little on piano

[@greggacek1655]

The piano player is Jeff Little, a star very much in his own right. If you've never seen him, look him up, he puts on a fabulous show! And just like here, usually steals the show

This looks like the Music Center, not in Grayson county. (Carroll County)
