Hard to believe he’s gone...even though he hadn’t played in awhile. I last saw him in 2010. No longer able to sing at all, but the band did the singing, and the playing was lovely..had such a good time that night
His is my favorite version of this song. I agree his treatment of ballads like this really captures the tragedy and regret without being maudlin or overly dramatic. RIP dear Tony. Glad we can still enjoy your art.

Rickie Simpkins can really pull the tone out of a fiddle... beautiful stuff...
Oh my. Tony what a gift you had.
He is so missed . . .
I agree
Besides an awesome & iconic guitarist, he also was so good at singing ballads like this. R.I.P. Anthony Rice, we'll miss you.

My brother tweeted about this performance - so glad I listened 😊

Tony was the greatest flat picker I’ve ever met. RIPMr. Rice
Best guitar break on TH-cam at 3:22 - couldn't be improved on.
RIP TONY

Not bad, but John Denver did the best rendition by far.
