OMG...that bass, that bass! Probably the best solo my two old ears ever heard with all the sass she could put in it without making you fall off your chair! Good job young lady! Of course the rest of the band were super too...but, ooooh that bass!
❤️Clarence, ❤️Tony, and ❤️Marty Stuart, who also plays one of Clarence’s guitars (the B bender) and introduced me to Clarence, and so many other tradition-steeped musicians!
Beautiful 😍 Just beautiful, you pulled those wonderful rusty Melodys the way Emma Rubinowitz's dancing can pull the heartstrings of a person made of stone
Clarence White had no problem with timing. He was experimenting with it and he could play out of time and still be in time. He was a true master and innovator.I have his recordings on my Ipod and listen to them everyday. Listen to Apalachian Spring, and see if he had a timing problem. The reason that some of his recordings sounded the way that they did, was because they were not studio recordings and were taken from his tapes.
@thatsthesameoldshit Yes, but like Henry Ford, there were other car makers before him, but he was the one that came up with the assembly line and made cars in mass production. Same way with Clarence White.
Bryn Davies is just flat OK. I, too, play acoustic (stand-up, up right, dog house, etc) bass. My main gig is our cowboy church (Salado TX). I don't get to solo much there so I enjoy watching-listening to good bass solos.
I agree 100%. It's like asking "who is the best looking woman" Everyone plays different and everyone hears different. It's not a friggin' contest. Some morons were arguing one time about who's better...Steve Vai or Chet Atkins.
(continuation) Listen to those Byrds records, It just fantastic how much he weaves in between melody and vocal lines. Oh and one more thing for thesameoldshit or whatever. Clarence absolutely did NOT have a rythm and timing problem whatsoever. In fact in the dvd he says he likes to fool around with time
Can anyone tell me if Wyatt Rice has something to do with Tony Rice (same family?) and ....oooo, this bass solo, Bryn Davies is sort of giant, love her !
I dont think anybody really gets it, clarence brought the acoustic guitar to the forefront of bluegrass music. AND okey so Doc was playing the acoustic to i know that. What I'm saying is that clarence improvised and played the melody. Before clarence doc was really just playing the melody. The best way i can describe clarences playing is weaving.
all these dibates about who's the best guitar player seem to me just mental masturbations,..let's enjoy tha music...!!and thanks a lot who posted the videos of this concert!
I strongly disagree thatsthesameoldshit. Clarene White didn't have a "timing problem". On "33 Acoustic Guitar Instrumentals" he is demonstrating how a soloist plays, so obviously, a person who is playing solo can slow down or speed up the tune as they see fit. How can you be "off" when there is nothing to be off against. If he was such a crap musician as you seem to think then why do all the best living guitarists (except maybe Doc himself) seem to regard CW as the standard bearer?
Clarence and Doc were not the first bluegrass lead guitar players, but they were the first really good ones. If you listen to Don Reno, on the golden guitar of Don Reno for instance, his tone is terrible, it's tinny and he sounds unsure of himself, his timing even gets lost at moments, on a recording no less. Clarence and Doc raised the bar so far that they might have well invented the bar. And Clarence especially with his experimentation in timing opened the doors for Tony Rice and David Grier.
Don Reno did not play lead guitar like Clarence White. Sorry. Everyone in the bluegrass community then and now recognizes the HUGE contribution that Clarence made to bluegrass guitar. There would be no Bryan Suttons or David Griers without Clarence. Just ask Bryan or David, they will be glad to tell you. Some even postulate, including Tony, if you ask him, that Clarence would have continued to eclipse the other players that took the stage after him if he had stayed on this planet a bit longer.
Well, let's just put it where it's at! The Stanley Brothers and George Shuffler brought the guitar to the forefront. I dare anyone to prove me wrong! Clarence, Tony, Wyatt, Larry (Sparks, that is)......anyone to even think anything negative about them is at stupid-ass!
A giant has left the room. RIP Tony Rice December 27, 2020
@Edward Atwell Was getting ready to say the same until I saw your reply. It was the next day after Christmas when I found out he passed. RIP!
God bless Tony Rest In Peace

Bryn Davies amazing bass!!
❤️Clarence, ❤️Tony, and ❤️Marty Stuart, who also plays one of Clarence’s guitars (the B bender) and introduced me to Clarence, and so many other tradition-steeped musicians!
Awesomeness and what a brilliantly expressive bass solo!! Sassy and cool.
Wonderful!
Gawdamighty. what a great performance by an allstar group!
Good grief! I have never got’n hot under the collar watching and listening to an acoustic bass player.
Beautiful 😍 Just beautiful, you pulled those wonderful rusty Melodys the way Emma Rubinowitz's dancing can pull the heartstrings of a person made of stone
Clarence White, Tony Rice, Norman Blake are all superb acoustic bluegrass guitar players IMO.

It's "Appalachian Swing"... :)
Luv you bryn.
Loved the history lesson at the intro...info I never knew. And a great song in addition to boot!
Just great.
I was really surprised by Wyatt's solo, he is no slouch! And that Bass player, did you ever see a bass man handled like that?
You gotta love the way Bryn Davies moves while she's playin' that doghouse bass.
Boy u aint lyin! Woooo, lord forgive me!
nice classic bass
@thatsthesameoldshit Yes, but like Henry Ford, there were other car makers before him, but he was the one that came up with the assembly line and made cars in mass production. Same way with Clarence White.
Bryn Davies my hero
je l'aime

Disagree 100%. Bryn Davies is awesome.
I agree 100%. It's like asking "who is the best looking woman" Everyone plays different and everyone hears different. It's not a friggin' contest. Some morons were arguing one time about who's better...Steve Vai or Chet Atkins.
I think vai would tell you Chet Atkins was better... Chet would say, 'who?'
4 my pastor at faith baptis church in salem virginia junior westmoreland
GREAT..
Great solos. Hot bass solo! Too bad camera didn't zoom in one the guitar solos. Must be a cellphone vid
Tony giver Hell....

+RAHAN G he is Tony's brother.
+strawman8 Thanks
I believe there were 4 or 5 boys in the family. I know there is Tony, Wyatt, and Larry.
You must live way back there in the country somewhere
Bryn!
WOW Bryn davies is such a beautiful lady .
Sorry Doc.....didn't mean to leave you out.
I dont think anybody really gets it, clarence brought the acoustic guitar to the forefront of bluegrass music. AND okey so Doc was playing the acoustic to i know that. What I'm saying is that clarence improvised and played the melody. Before clarence doc was really just playing the melody. The best way i can describe clarences playing is weaving.
Improvisation has been a staple of mountain music since it came over from Britain though. It wasn't new in the time of doc and clarence

Sorry we gotta fire the fiddle. The mandolin too
That'll be Billy Strings Ina coupla decade's if he doesn't come up off'n those Marlboros

The bass player just has "it."
She has always made my putter flutter. With a name like Bryn, how could it be wrong.
Genius is an overused term, but not with these performers. Inspired genius might be more apropos.
Would’ve been better if he’d had the Dawg and Doc with him.
