I was born in 1959, graduated from high school in 1978. You know all the music this long haired boy was listening to. Thanks for this cover, took me back.
Del McCoury is one of the greats, a true US National Treasure. What's cool is that all these people do this because they love it - they probably would pay to be able to play!
Del's singing is perfect, and the smiles around the house as people play their parts, or watch the others, are huge treats. So much fun, on a great song, with a great history beyond Canned Heat.
This is the beauty of music. It goes with every form, Blue grass, rock, classical, you name it and you can play it. Look what musicians have done with The Beatles.
Great version! Certain songs once they get in the groove, a thumpin, remind me of a locomotive goin down the tracks. This is one, great rhythm! Thanks!
Check out Henry James' version from 1928 on youtube. He even plays the panflute that Canned Heat used, but as a single performer. These old-timers need the credit due them.
@@joelzdepski9884 I thought he (also?) played a reed instrument made from cane? I think I read that in the liner notes to the wonderful Olde Tyme music comp "Good For What Ails You."
Nice addition to videos from this session posted by you & the Gibson Brothers I've already enjoyed. Would love to see a video of the entire session. Great to see everyone enjoying playing & singing together.
Del McCoury and his band along with some great help here seem to turn every song into gold. thank you so much... I'm sure henry thomas and canned heat would approve too lol
What an amazing cover. Wow, truly special. Great way to honor Alan Blind Owl Wilson, Bob the Bear Hite, Henry Sunflower Vestine, and Larry the Mole Taylor.
Fantastic. Great sound in a great setting with incredible musicians. Thanks for sharing this and giving the attention to detail that these amazing musicians deserve. I love them all and of course especially Del McCoury.
Hi Fran - I just love this piece and you guys just play so well. Beautiful. The scenery is magnificent and the music fits perfectly . Many thanks for sharing. 👏🏻👍
wonder if cash went the Thomas family. Doubt it. If you listen side by side lyrics are different but the phrasing, and groove exact copy asked around the flute part is exact.
@@ThePUNisher2112YYZ Yes, indeed. 'Going up the country' was - perhaps - their biggest single. The also did a marvelous rendition of 'On the Road Again' but my favorite is 'Let's Work Together' Wilson and Bob the Bear Hite, Henry Vestine and Kenny Edwards. Great talent.

Born in '54 and graduated in 1972.....feel the same.
This song has been laying around just waiting for this version.
Absolutely! 100%
Absolutely correct! This is perfection!
I like to call what these 🎨, people play-'Americana', it fits, IMO. Bluegrass seems like putting them in too small a box❤
Love it... Nothing like good musicians playing good music to put a smile on your face... GOD BLESS Y'ALL... & GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
Alan Wilson would be proud of you guys.
haha song is about going to Canada to avoid the draft, it's a big FU to America

It's all about the smiles :D
@@rudolphguarnacci197 I was at Woodstock when Canned Heat had this on their playlist, with a great reception by the crowd!
Growing up I always heard this song but when I heard yall played it in blue grass. I fell in love with it. Thank you for such beautiful music.

Excellent!
Of course it’s a cover of Henry Thomas Bull Doze Blues 1928. Well worth a listen!
90+ years old
Indeed that has been a nearly overlooked fact for decades, but we'll take every wonderful version we can get❤
Thanks for giving credit to the first performance.
Canned Heat held close to Thomas' version. th-cam.com/video/b8NJ-MIfFHI/w-d-xo.html
And Monroe got "Rocky Road Blues" out of that song.
Del McCoury for president! Great job. What a talented group of musicians.
A real treat. So many good musicians. Makes you wanna dance rather than drive or ride.
I am sure Alan Wilson will be smiling down on you fine musicians ... you done the song proud ... thanks form England.
Shame he didnt write it
@@Kevin-ke2in He did sing the famous version that we are all familiar with, though.
@@Kevin-ke2in but he sure could sing it!
Music like this should get bigger. So much fluff and stuff these days. Excellent.
I love canned heats version since I was a kid but, damn. This is amazing. Over the top great. Thanks for sharing.
This is nice but nothing compares to Canned Heat
regarding this song.
Ditto Dirtworshiper 👌
@@bikersoncall check out the original
@@stuartwallace6154 Nice, great tune.
Personally, I prefer the original Henry Thomas.
Love it when it's a relaxed jam,,..just hangin' out. Fabulous!
Love this, love when musicians get together and play like this.
What a great performance. Superb players all! And that voice is pure bluegrass.
Ohhhhhh,,,, such joy emanating from this gang!!! Beautiful music friends!!! Brought me such happiness and joy that I played it over and over again!!!
Am I the only one who thinks that Rob McCoury's banjo playing deserves much more attention than it gets?
I like the vocalist.
Hell this is great. A Scotsman smiling here - a rare sight 😁
Beautiful rendition, Canned Heat, reminds me of my youth.
The group Canned Heat played this years ago. A flute riff was added. The first tune I tried to play when I was a kid.
I watched Canned Heat play it in 1971 in Dallas Texas. Great song...
This got my toe tappin and by foot stomping with my hands clapping...i will play it again an over an over
Just great and thank you very much.
OK, that was an excellent rendition of goin' up the country. Del McCoury Band is tight.
This is lovely! This song was made for Del!
Only came across these guys now , wtf !!! , an orchestra of badassness ❤.Hyup from ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Great version! Certain songs once they get in the groove, a thumpin, remind me of a locomotive goin down the tracks. This is one, great rhythm! Thanks!
Del's band can really find the groove.
When the bass comes in at the start.....
Well done, Bravo...!!!
One of my 1960's childhood favorites. From blues to bluegrass.
I never thought of doing a bluegrass cover of Going Up The Country, but it does work well.
Luv them…this is one happy group…talk about real country with a big slug of blue grass..this is it in all its glory…🇨🇦
SPECTACULAR rendition of a great old song.
If anyone's unsure what heavenly music sounds like.....
Now you know....
OOhhOhhoo! J'adore! Merci! ... ça fait beaucoup de bien! 🤩🤗
What a beautiful song n what a beautiful voice. Love it❤
Loved the music... the mics !!! Nice job on the sound. Beautiful performances. 👍
Mighty Fine, Mighty Fine! Good to see everyone in good health, especially Papa Del!
Good country rendition. Original was adapted by Alan Wilson from "Bull Doze Blues" by Henry Thomas (1928).

Love everything I’ve heard from this session
This is marvelous. Thanks from England
Del’s iconic tenor epitomizes that high lonesome sound.
Awesome version of this song! Very enjoyable performance!
Such a pleasure to hear this! Thank you so much.
Nailed it. 👍👍🇺🇸
Good _GOD_ what a great rendition! Love it!!!
I listen to this over and over again and I love it more each time. Mercy that’s fine!!!
Fantastic! Canned Heat would love it I'm sure.
WOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Very nicely done - THANK YOU!!!!
Excellent rendition! What a great groove.
I love the smile on Ethan's face after he nails that bass solo!
Crushed it!
I had rather hear an informal jam session like this one than a formal concert.
What a herd of heavy hitters. Wish I could have been there and got an earful.
I love this version of this great song
Just wow! Amazing playing and good golly miss molly the vocals are simply stunning. My ears are begging for more. Thank you and hell yes I subscribed.
Del McCoury and his band along with some great help here seem to turn every song into gold. thank you so much... I'm sure henry thomas and canned heat would approve too lol
I’m a Del-Head and this tribute to the original artist is in itself self-explanatory.
These ladies are HOT!
Flawless strings, perfect pitch voices. So glad I stumbled upon them today. They are surely on their way.
Loving watching individuals get after it for the collective!!
Great music, thanks!
Never heard the bluegrass version before. Very nice!
☮️❤️🙂🙏🌈🍀
What an amazing cover. Wow, truly special. Great way to honor Alan Blind Owl Wilson, Bob the Bear Hite, Henry Sunflower Vestine, and Larry the Mole Taylor.
Great job guys! Love this Bluegrass version of this much loved song. Del's smile is priceless! 🙂
einfach ein sehr genialer Sound! Respekt!! Toll!!
Great performance. You`re clearly having fun and that is wat music is all about. Give yourselves a big hand folks.
Del looks good!! May he be blessed to live a long time!!
Canned Heat meets the Stanley Brothers! Great remix, love it!!
Oulala quel bonheur de les regarder et de les entendre 😂, on se croirait en 1968 a Woodstock
I dont usually like Covers but these guys and gals nailed this.
There's just a whole lotta damn talent there! That was freaking awesome!
Great cover of a great song. Awesome musicians in this group.
That was four minutes of pure joy!
Great production. 👍
Del is the best. Period.
Nothing better than muse's jamming, loved it.
Excellent Guys and Gals!❤ THANK YOU ALL MY Favorite😊❤❤❤❤
Fantastic. Great sound in a great setting with incredible musicians. Thanks for sharing this and giving the attention to detail that these amazing musicians deserve.
I love them all and of course especially Del McCoury.
Just showed up in my feed and I thought, “ If this sucks, there’s no hope for humanity “.
There’s still hope …
I like your version very much, thanks for posting
Excellent, cheers from Canada....
Great cover!! Lovin it!! What a band!!
Great version. The great Del Mc Coury and his band and guests.
I love this sooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Made me smile - I especially liked the fiddle playing !
Great cover people, one of my all time favourite bands, thanks.
Hi Fran - I just love this piece and you guys just play so well. Beautiful. The scenery is magnificent and the music fits perfectly . Many thanks for sharing. 👏🏻👍
Wish I could go back in time to see the event on that poster in the background! What a lineup!
Canned Heat, Woodstock Nation..gr8 cover ❤
Just a Wow! Always a great song of the era and I'm of the era.
Solo puedo decir:FANTÁSTICO, GENIAL, MARAVILLOSO,
Lovely. Gets my dollar any day.
I love this!!!
Omg!!! I love this song…. Woodstock!
Of Course this is a Henry Thomas song from 1928, I hope the band pays some attribution to one of the greatest black blues artists of all time.
did not know that, but it fits and sure needs to be acknowledged!!!
@@scottski51 Bulldoze blues
True, but they are using Alan Wilson’s arrangement and lyrics - and putting it back into the 1928 style of Henry Thomas’ era. Love it! 💙
wonder if cash went the Thomas family. Doubt it. If you listen side by side lyrics are different but the phrasing, and groove exact copy asked around the flute part is exact.
Be quiet
Great song, great version.
That was fun! Love that standup bass.
It's not originally by Canned Heat. They covered it themselves. Henry Thomas wrote and sang it in 1928.
Its just fair...👍
I never said it was originally done by Canned Heat ... Alan Wilson was the lead vocal on this song by Canned Heat.
Who would pay attention if it was posted as a Henry Thomas hit from 1928?
When I saw the thumbnail text, I came to look for this comment. I suppose they didn’t know. Most people don’t
@@gingercat555 in the description they present it as a song of canned heat.
Great group, Very talented👍👍
Absolutely great music. Thank you.
Brilliant, got this old boy foot tapping!👍🇦🇺🇬🇧😎🙏
I have to believe that somewhere Blind Al Wilson is smiling at hearing this. Beautiful.
@@ThePUNisher2112YYZ that was his nickname. Magnifcent talent, and gone way too soon.
@@ThePUNisher2112YYZ Yes, indeed. 'Going up the country' was - perhaps - their biggest single. The also did a marvelous rendition of 'On the Road Again' but my favorite is 'Let's Work Together'
Wilson and Bob the Bear Hite, Henry Vestine and Kenny Edwards. Great talent.
I am in love with Alan. What a musician - singing, harmonica, slide guitar and composition.
Great song by Canned Heat and this version is awesome as well!
