I've had this video for almost 20 years. It's been put up for years but the news of JD's death prompted me to dig it out and watch it again. I felt l should post it for others to see. I'm sure many will enjoy as much as I did the first time I watched it. This was 3 long time friends just sitting around doing things bluegrass buddies tend to do. Learn a lick or maybe some backup for your next jam or band practice. That would be the best way honor JD, I think. Rest in Peace.
Thank you so much for posting this!! To a Banjo dude like me, always learning, this is a master class from one of the best Banjoists that walked on Blue Grass.
I have watched this great video many times now. Among other things I am getting , as you mention , that by closely watching J Ds left hand , and with an intermediate experience picking 5 string - it is a great lesson in back up licks etc. Get out your banjo and copy his moves . pause and go for it . No TAB required. RIP J D Crowe..
@@Man_fay_the_Bru Sure. "On My Mind". A great classic Flatt & Scruggs song. I do it almost every jam or show I do. Here's a tip for you buddy. Harley Allen and Mike Lilly do a wonderful rendition of it. The banjo break Mike Lilly takes will blow you away. Mostly all chopping with chords up and down the neck. Just search Harley Allen On My Mind. Watch the live show one.
I had the privilege of meeting him many times. He had the best backup/supporting banjo in the business. While others are singing or soloing, jd was playing perfectly tasteful parts at the right time. A legend for the ages
Thank you J. D. for decades of great music and introducing so many future great country artists to the world. They all seemed to funnel through the new south somehow. R.I.P.
When JD Crowe sits down in your living room with a banjo, you turn on the camcorder. It’s as simple as that. This is gold! Pure gold! Thanks to whomever filmed, edited, posted.
If the love of this man and his music could have saved him, he would have lived forever. Of all the musicians we have lost over the years , this one really took it's toll on the emotions of an old man in Georgia. Caught me off guard.
I remember seeing JD Crowe in some lounge when I moved to Lexington from Cincinnati in 1973. In the interim, I've lived in Denver, Sacramento, Bangkok, Clearwater, Sarasota and now retired in East Tennessee but the music always went with me. Sorry to hear JD is gone. Bless his heart.
I got to know JD through Ricky Wasson while recording a project in Ricky's studio just a few years ago. JD was a fine person. He was a big Andy Griffith fan. We got to talking and laughing about the Ernest T Bass episodes. He loved those things. The world lost a great treasure. He was one of the greatest banjo players that lived. I just hope that this new generation holds up his tradition.
I've been a banjo picker for 50 years. Played many, many festivals and bar room gigs in my life. I've tried to hold my hand in the position of JD's style and the next day have have to take three Aleve! He's the master of power and drive. He and Bill Emerson were my God's of the banjos! RIP to both. Such a sad year for many pickers.
@@47Banjoman Some years ago I saw an interview with J. D. and he discussed how he so taken with Earl Scruggs when he was a youngster J. D. wanted everything just like Earl does it including the banjo strap over the right shoulder which must be part of Earl's sound and tone. When he was some older J. D. got to travel around with Flatt and Scruggs and found out the only reason Earl wore his strap over his right shoulder is so he didn't have to take his hat off when he switched to guitar and later back to banjo:) I just found out J. D. had passed away today. J. D. was one of the absolute best!!
I like all the background activity in this house: the kid dancing around in his pajamas, the wife fixing the rug, and the cat slinking by, all while great bluegrass is being casually played in the living room. Nothing staged here!
I love the combination of great music, regular home, and everyday life going on in the background. JD was brilliant. He knew exactly how important his musical contributions were....and it made no difference to him. He was who he was and treated everyone like an old friend.
This is an excellent video of jd pickin! He is by far my favorite banjo player of all time and every time I watch him play I get mesmerized and lost in his sound. Truly one of the all time greats and in my opinion the greatest of all time! Rest in peace jd we miss you greatly.
Beautiful video, perfect banjo playing, nothing artificial. Comfort and fun among friends. Such music is a matter of the heart. I watched and listened to the whole thing and it filled me with the beauty of folk music.❤
RonBlockAKUS, Thanks Ron, I'm glad to have been able to post it. I was extremely lucky to get a copy. My old friend that had it, guarded it and thought JD would get mad at him if he let a copy get out. And the only reason he let me have a copy was as a favor for converting his VHS to DVD. -And I had begged and begged :). After 18 or 19 years my friend died and then less than a year later, JD followed him on to Glory. Well, at that point, I figured I had sufficiently kept my promise. I loved JD as a musician and I loved Jack Chaffins as a friend. Thanks so much for watching.
Thanks for posting this video. It should be put in such as Bluegrass Hall of Fame. A fine musician is gone. But his creativity and love of the art form will be difficult to surpass. Rest in the arms of the Lord, Mr. Crowe.
Gods own singer of songs went home. He will never know how many hours I have spent listening to his banjo picking. I wanted to hear the best and learn to pick like him. Truly a Kentucky Treasure.
Thanks for this great upload. What a loss to the Bluegrass world - and to think we were mourning Tony Rice this time last year. I've been hoping for some inspiration to get my banjo out of the case again - and this is it.
With banjo & guitar being top on the list of instruments I try to play, It was like being punched in the gut..............after just getting over a punch in the gut!!!!!!!! I've had my YT name for over 10 yrs now & I'm thinking strongly about changing it now. This loss has tore me up pretty hard!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching, The gentleman singing was Tom McKinney who was from North Carolina. Tom is known in the bluegrass guitar world as the fellow who made the first sleek, non bulky, yoke style capos which were popularized in large part by Tony Rice in the 1980s. Today, Elliott Capos offers their licensed version of the McKinney style capo.
Good god, that's great. I have to say, I'm not a HUGE fan of bluegrass, and I don't know a lot of the work of Mr. Crowe intimately. This is like watching a master of his art. I just don't see how people like him make it look so damned effortless. And this illustrates a pet theory of mine--behind every great banjer player is a great cat!
Aloha 🌸 grew up on this music with my grandfather playing. You will be so missed Thank you for being the finest . My heart goes out to your family and friends and everyone who fell in love with his music He will be the splendid dancing we do forever
Thanks so much for posting this. I loved Crowe's banjo playing. This takes me back to a small boy watching my dad and friends pick. Some of that was recorded on an old reel tape. Id give anything to be able to see it again. I don't know what happened to it. Dads passed 5 years ago.
Always been my Favourite player right beside Earl. Got to meet and chat with him at a festival, True Gentleman. This is a GREAT video I have already learnt some new tricks . Things I have been doing wrong for 40 years haha
This tape is BEAUTIFUL & WONDERFUL footage of what all of us that are not Earl, & Sonny need! What a pleasure to see it and enjoy it. What an education for all of us that aspire to learn and be a little better. Thank you so much for posting this.
I thank GOD JESUS & Our HOLY Spirit for you , whom sharing this! My Teacher Mike Heading Said JD Crow is one of his Inspirational Banjo players, Now I have 2 new For brothers I will lean on & learn from.
This is just incredible, if anyone joining in on this video only knows JD Crowe in the room thats ok, but i did wanna also say what a room of LEGENDS. Tom Mckinney lived about 8mins from my house in Weaverville, NC. He was a incredible Banjo player and Banjo setup master, he also is the inventor of the obvious Mckinney- Elliott Capo. The name Frank Neat should speak for its self, Frank Neat hand crafted banjo maker and banjo repair guru. This video is absolute GOLD! 3 amazing banjo players in a room togethor all cutting up and making bluegrass memories! I have my great grannys home recordings of bluegrass jams out in my garage and this shows that i desperately need to convert them from vhs to digital asap. Thank you for this awesome video!
I would encourage you to. I have quite a bit of festival footage still on VHS that was stored in a garage that unfortunately was subject to high humidity and there is a white mold on the tapes. I'm going through the process of cleaning them, which requires a sacrificial donor VCR that you take the cover off of and use a soft cloth to physically clean the tape as it fast forwards and rewinds. My trouble has been finding VCRs that will work. The last two have bought have quit working just days after I started using them.
@@nippynf4l831 Tom Mckinney- maker of the Mckinney/Elliott guitar/banjo capo. Tom was a incredible banjo player also, he played a near replica style of earl scruggs picking. Also amazing banjo setup man, he setup 3 of my banjos!
The thing we can’t really hear here is the volume. Most likely the mic isn’t picking up all the difference in the volume which I can imagine that banjo with him playing it in that room musta have been HUGE.

You are right, hardly no one plays back up like JD. And that's a shame, really. Thanks for watching.
every lesson i've ever had when i ask them about back up they just say "JD crowe"

I guess his COPD had really progressed -in recent months, especially. 84 is a good, long life though. The brevity of life …that is a thing, for sure.

This video really is solid gold, it is a time capsule itself. Almost a one on one lesson with the legend himself. J D is truly a master.
J.D. kills it on "Going Down the Road Feeling Bad" and "Bugle Call Rag." "Dear Ol' Dixie" ain't too shabby either. We lost another legend today.
absolute tone monster
Not bad on Ground Speed, either.
I've learned more about playing banjo just watching this video than I have in the last ten years.

Oh man 😥another one of my banjo heroes is gone. Rest in Peace JD.
I’m proud to say I met JD twice and man was he everything I hoped he’d be !!
I met JD a few years back when our band showcased at IBMA. Got my banjo head signed by him. Something I’ll always cherish.
