I'm a 58 year old rush the who and Kansas fan also sabbath and this stuff grabbed me about ten years ago and I'm in! Doc Watson to gospel bluegrass and Appalachian stranging it's all very good stuff
Nevermind the low brow hillbilly humor. This kind of music wasn’t respected in those days. Behind the clowning around was a group of accomplished musicians and singers at the top of their game.
Thank you for posting! I’ve loved the Dillards since seeing them on the Andy Griffith Show several times. Sometimes I wish I could trade my life of classical piano for being in a bluegrass group.
Has anybody heard DOUG DILLARD's collaborations with GENE CLARK of THE BYRDS?...Outstanding stuff!!! I'm a 68 year old metal head but i have always like Blue Grass and The Dillards were the best around!!!
I got to be their driver for a gig they had in my hometown. They were in really no nonsense business mode in the car, one worried I'd make a wrong turn in my OWN town , population 3000. On stage, they were hilarious.
It was the Kentucky Colonels featuring Clarence White and Roland White that played this tune on the Andy Griffith show not the Dillards aka. Darlings .
On the Live Almost album, it says, "I'll never marry an old man, I'll tell you the reason why. His lips are all tobacco juice, and he never zips his fly." Maybe the fly being unzipped was forbidden on TV then.
I could be wrong but I believe Doug is the only one of the original Dillards that is still alive. I also believe that Maggie Peterson (Charlene Darling) also has passed on.
Is that JVD? Funny bit with the bare feet. But just a quick note to the director, those acts went way too long. Cut them back by about a half. Too late now, but you would have said thanks and you would have been welcome.
im a 15 year old metalhead but what the hell blue grass is life changing
same from another 15 year old metelhead
Yes it is! For the most part, it is also just plain FUN!😅❤
Bluegrass has the energy of metal but with acoustic instruments.
You should hear Flatt and Scruggs Dear Old Dixie if you think this is good!! Or Raymond Fairchild Woah Mule
Look up New Grass Revival
They made such dazzlingly pure virtuosity look effortless.
Love Bluegrass and love, love, love the Darlings…I mean the Dillards.
I always loved it when they were on the andy Griffith show. I loved there music
Their, not there.

" There wolf ."
There’s always a spelling Nazi.
@frankstefini3392 there's always semi-literates.
Their. Dorry
Always enjoyed watching this talent on Andy Griffith show. They were so talented.
The warmth and joy that fills my heart when I hear this song!!!!
This song makes me cry!😂
Yelp I remember Charlene
Ya just gotta fight it!
❤ Charlene is always in my ❤
@@lesmcc8103 still probably the best answer of the bunch.😀
Listen to “There is a Time”.
I never get tired of The Dillards! Master pickers, all of them..
Pickin' an' grinnin'!
Where's Mitch's pipe?
Boys are really excited today Mr Darlin
Or ...
*Andy:* "The boys are kinda quiet tonight."
*The Boys:* (Four blank facial expressions.)
*Brisco:* "Oh, they're just overcome with emotion."
@@57highland they’d all keyed up
Dean Webb (RIP) was a family friend. ❤The Dillards were certainly early pioneers in contemporary acoustic Americana!
When talent meant something

Had the honor of attending a Doc Watson concert in Richmond Virginia, many moons ago. He. Was. Amazing. RIP, Doc.
Great musicians and great entertainers.

This music still doesn’t get the respect it deserves. I only listen to bluegrass. Nothing better!
And quite young men too. I think at the time of this video, Rodney Dillard (guitar) wasn't much over 20 years old.
What a fantastic bluegrass group! Thanks so much for posting. (It was great seeing Judy and Jerry, as well.)

These guys were great
Thank you. Learn your musical history with a smile.
Classic Dillards, love this! ♥
First got their live album in high school, over 60 years ago. Will always love their music and their humor.
The Darlin Boys!
“Just jump in when ya can sheriff…and hang on….”. If you know this, you are probably old, like me, or watch the reruns.
Mayberry !!!!!!!
Briscoe: "You don't believe I can get banjo sounds out o' this jug?"
Andy: "No!"
Briscoe: "Man's entitled to his opinion."
@@mikel5582 lol I remember that episode it's called The Darlings are coming
" you got time to breathe, you got time for music.
Dillards on fiyah!!!🔥🔥👏👏♥
Hilarious and amazingly talented!
My dad loves this song!
So talented and handsome. Keep laughing how they were on Andy Griffith..
Talent is talent regardless of the genre.❤
Great old tune in the key of C
Thank you for sharing this!
Excellent, thanks for posting this!
Needs more jug!
Git after that banjo!
Missing Brisco and his jug
I got to be their driver for a gig they had in my hometown. They were in really no nonsense business mode in the car, one worried I'd make a wrong turn in my OWN town , population 3000.
On stage, they were hilarious.
Fabulous life affirming music,so well rehearsed!
The Dillards were a dilly!😅. 🤓😎✌🏼
Andy loved em
Love forever!
I saw them as a kid at a Bluegrass festival, they were very entertaining, not just the music but their humor as well.
The Blazing Banjo of Doug Dillard!
Talented cats
Good band and harmonies
That was great.
Lot of Dills right there...........
Best episodes of The Andy Griffith Show were the ones with the Dillards!
They did this number on Andy Griffith.
It was the Kentucky Colonels featuring Clarence White and Roland White that played this tune on the Andy Griffith show not the Dillards aka. Darlings .
Great footage Dillards fan
I got a better one "I wouldn't marry that old maid. Tellyou the reason why. She blows her nose in the cornbread and calls it pumpkin pie" 😅😅😅
You are a true blue grass lyricist
On the Live Almost album, it says, "I'll never marry an old man, I'll tell you the reason why. His lips are all tobacco juice, and he never zips his fly." Maybe the fly being unzipped was forbidden on TV then.
My favorite verse
He blows his nose in old cornbread and calls it pumpkin pie.
😂
Is that Jerry Van Dyke?
Looked like him. I read he turned down the lead role in Gilligan's Island for My Mother The Car
Looks like fun y'all.
Theatrics,awesome
Ireland wants their music back!
Ireland can have her music. We'll keep our all American bluegrass!
He is clutching her with a frightening energy!
fantastic talent
Talent ❤
I watched Andy Griffith for years before realizing who the Dillards were.
Great harmony
Heck yeah!👍! 👍! 👍!!! 👍
Where's Charlene?
A DARLIN’ group.🤪
Did the Dillards add the drummer before or after Douglas split with them?
I wish I’d been their hair grease supplier, I’d be a rich man!
LUBE !
When they were on the Andy Griffith show Harry Dean Stanton was with them on one episode
They remind me of The Darling Family from Andy Griffith
They are them
October 1963...
I could be wrong but I believe Doug is the only one of the original Dillards that is still alive. I also believe that Maggie Peterson (Charlene Darling) also has passed on.
Rodney (guitar) is the sole survivor.
Good, extra good!
Mountain Metal. 🤘
Bluegrass IS Country Metal.
Looks like Jerry Van Dyke is eyeing Judy Garland for later😉
G, C and D… warp speed.
Cool
Dirty me dirty me, I’m disgusted with myself……aw, that makes me cry
Splitlip Rayfield
I believe this open c
It looks like C, but not open C. The guitar player is using fingerings for G-C-D, capo'ed up to C.
None better.
🎉 💙
Yee-Haw!!
It looks like she keeps pulling away from him.
Talented!!!😊

slam action shotgun made out of pipes
They were great but I think I prefer the grandpa jones version a little better

Jerry Van Dyke is handsy and cringe with Garland.
For sure , looks like a creep
He had a pretty bad reputation…
Just what I thought too
How do you figure??
Did look like he made her a little unscriptedly nervous....
They about the worst cooks there is!

Only thing missing is Bristol and Charlene …….. 🫡
