this is the best ' SALLY ' on youtube by far. its the perfect tempo for this tune. the two leads always play the melody. the backup keeps everything in the groove, and complement the lead melody throughout. its perfectly miked so all the instruments are in balance volume-wise. just wonderful.
Love Jim’s style, super clean pickin’! Happy birthday Jim for the 18th, same day as mine! I will just celebrate but having a whole day pickin’ God bless.
After hearing Jim Mills play "Sally Goodin", all I can think of is how close it sounds to Earl on the Foggy Mountain Banjo album. Excellent banjo picker!!!
sweet! you got to play with Jim? He is soooooo awesome! He is absolutely my favorite banjo player second only to Earl Scruggs. He is truly an inspiration for me, and his version of Sally Goodin is downright kick-ass.
I was thinking the same! I've had that album since 1960 on 33 1/3 rpm and Jim's playing is very similar. Also J. D. Crowe has a lot of Earl Scruggs in his style. J. D. said he use to go see Flatt & Scruggs when he was growing up starting in 1950 to study Earl. Earl discovered the three finger thing when he was 10 but Snuffy Jenkins was doing a version of it back then too plus Earl and Don Reno use to play together on weekends when they were young with the Morris Bros. Don had a unique style.
Awesome! Of course Jimmy Mills is great and fiddle player too; but how about that big full rhythm guitar coming in there! That’s how’s is supposed to be done.
Good pickin', however, would have been much better in 'A'. I thought all groups had graduated from 'G' Sally Gooden, in 1930 that would have been acceptable!

Great song, great job! just a pleasure to hear one of my favorite bluegrass tunes.

God bless.
I started listening to this so I could hear Jim's Huber bark and fell in LOVE with the tones coming out of that fiddle!
Rest easy Jim.... one hell of a banjer man! Top 3 in my book
Such a great experience being there. I tell everyone that the concerts alone are worth the price of admission !
Why can't I hear this in NY city man!!! There should be more of this at the parks in Queens,Brooklyn,Staten Island and the Bronkx
Must have played that 7 or 8 times back to back. Outstanding.

Hell yeah, Dick Bowden can play that two finger Rhythm like nobody's business!
Jim Mill's banjo playing is so punchy. Every pluck has such presence.
Great style, Jim, and sure good to see Alan Kaufman on his fiddle...great toe stompin', for sure!
Jimmy mills is absolutely the best.!!!
Fiddle for the win. He carried the whole band. ❤❤❤
2:17 I love the way Jim follows the beat perfectly with those pinches!!!

Jim Mills and Kaufman just classic bluegrass. i love how the bass player gets into it
Jim and Alan do have clean notation, all the while zipping it up with a little dissonance..great musicians.
That smile at 2:20 tells the whole story
This is what I want to be when I grow up. lol. Then I try to play anything as cleanly as Jim Mills and I realize I ought to try something else. :)
Kelly Stockwell plays in Hot Mustard, an amazing group. Glad to see her in on this jam!
Great music.
Oh just forget it, Jim is fantastic :-)....Jack Baker NYC
Brings tears to my eyes....REALLY!
Awesome! Of course Jimmy Mills is great and fiddle player too; but how about that big full rhythm guitar coming in there! That’s how’s is supposed to be done.

...wonder why in (G) instead of (A) ?
Ended way to early
Don't the all bop around and look like water boiling in a pot! Great stuff.
Very cool
Man that girl can play the crap out of that bass.
Good pickin', however, would have been much better in 'A'. I thought all groups had graduated from 'G' Sally Gooden, in 1930 that would have been acceptable!
Mandolin player is really getting into it.....
Jim should work on his timing and maybe get a better banjo.
Sure buddy, I’m sure the man who has more banjo playing accolades than you do needs to work on his timing and get a better banjo. Are you challenged?
