Porter thought alot of string. I was a young woman when string was around. But I remember. I was a teenager. A true living legend. He was amazing. He is truly missed.
David ( String) and Estelle had no children. Although they admired and loved their nieces and nephews. They would travel often to Jackson County Ky to see their extended family.
He was a great entertainer. I grew up watching the Porter Wagoner show. String Bean was a regular. Dolly Parton was just a young woman when she was on the show singing and selling boxes of Breeze Detergent.
Roy, Stringbean, Bobby, Grandpa Jones. Four legends right there. I don’t see Buck Trent in on this video. But he’s also a very talented Banjo picker that was also on Hee Haw.
I remember being in western Tennessee in the summer of 1965 watching The Porter Wagoner Show on a black and white TV. We lived in Finley, an incorporated little town about five miles west of Dyresburg.
It must be the 3rd time I've watched this. The old time actors and players always intrique me. I love them all. Wish i could turn back the clock of time.
His story is so fantastic. Trading 2 chickens for his banjo at age 12 with a musical family and grandpa jones and friends. I can just imagine their back/front yard gatherings. Just fantastic taste of true Americana. Just love it!
If string is 6ft5, then porter Wagoner must have also been a very tall man. God love string. He was truly a good, gifted, modest, humble man. None like him then or now. Miss you string. You and Estelle are so missed.
The classic costume, too perfect. But he knew they were cutting into his time, and was not impressed. Celebrity was never more important than the music. He could have taught us so much.
I can remember watching all those great country music shows as a kid. That was country music back then. This so called country music today isn’t worth listening to.
I'm 57. I miss country music like these guys. Nowadays country music sucks eggs. I remember the Porter Waggoner Show when I was little. I always wanted one of Porter's rhinestone suits. They were the coolest.
yup. "I went down to the river in my ford truck with a six pack of beer just looking for a fu*k." Just made that up but just as good as any lyric you would hear from country music today.
Growing up I had several albums of "bean". Also Dave Macon. I liked Bean for his whimsical act. But he hardly ever changed chords on live tv. He did on Run Rabbit Run but mostly he would play in open G and play melody only. Out of harmony. Great entertainer. Master of banjo??
He was saggin before saggin was cool. Lol. His ways with the banjo more than made up for it tho. Can definatly see why he made the cut all those years ago.

The bean was a master of the banjo. How sweet it was. There will NEVER be another one like the bean.
@Keith Clark He was one of the best banjo players who ever lived you moron.
"The mastering of an instrument" was a understatement when it came to this man.
dntlss r to get
dntlss he made his mark thats for sure
String was so relaxed on stage. He would bring the best out in anyone that was on stage with him. He was a very giving and caring person.
A movie must be made of this great performer!
100%. Yes!
A better time with better people. I sure do miss them.
Those were the days. God bless stringbean. He really was the Kentucky wonder.
50s,60s and 70s were great years !

There will never be another one who can play the way string did! One of a kind! Karl
Whole bunch of talent on that stage. Some of them left us too soon. Roger, String,.....
David ( String) and Estelle had no children. Although they admired and loved their nieces and nephews. They would travel often to Jackson County Ky to see their extended family.

2 of my favorites. Roger Miller and Stringbean
It didn't get any better than this. He truly was the Kentucky wonder. Amazing!. A living legend.
What an immensely talented man.
Everyone there have sadly passed away but their legend will live on the internet
Roy, Stringbean, Bobby, Grandpa Jones. Four legends right there. I don’t see Buck Trent in on this video. But he’s also a very talented Banjo picker that was also on Hee Haw.
String bean was awesome…
The great stringbean

Great showman.
Don't you just love it? String was awesome! Amazing! So missed.
Oh freaking mazing!!! Thought I was the only one who remembers this greatness. Lucky to be an old geezer who saw this
Sure do miss old string bean, he's one of my all-time favorites.
It must be the 3rd time I've watched this. The old time actors and players always intrique me. I love them all.
Wish i could turn back the clock of time.

The beano was so talented at the banjo...wow....what an amazing talent...sings awesome too!! Ashame he was murdered!
God bless you stringbean. Best banjo picker ever. No one today can pick a banjo like you
Porter always ended his show saying, " What is to be will be and what ain't to be just might happen.
If string is 6ft5, then porter Wagoner must have also been a very tall man. God love string. He was truly a good, gifted, modest, humble man. None like him then or now. Miss you string. You and Estelle are so missed.
I thought that also Porter was eye to eye with him.
Porter probably wearing platforms
"Bottlecap" banjo!
Ol' Stringbean was a thrifty ol' country boy who knew how to guard that old solvency!
God I play his style of banjo picking and I will never be as talented as he was!
Did anyone notice how fast strings fingers moved on his banjo?
It doesn't get any better than this! The Kentucky wonder Stringbean!
The classic costume, too perfect. But he knew they were cutting into his time, and was not impressed. Celebrity was never more important than the music. He could have taught us so much.
Thank you Randle!!
Randell!

I remember watching Stringbean on he ha when I was a kid. Couldnt believe it when he and his wife were murdered.
He shld b in the hall of fame yes ago
Flip that hat son!
I know why I feel sorry for this super country music singer as if he was killed yesterday
This is REAL country music not the trash that passes for "country" music these days.
elaine smith you don't like Carrie Underwood??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!..... she good not trash
She's not trash but she also is not Real country.
He was great, yep that was real country, what they call country now is pop music, all electronic music not as much skills
yup. "I went down to the river in my ford truck with a six pack of beer just looking for a fu*k." Just made that up but just as good as any lyric you would hear from country music today.
. . tru-dat
Can his grand grandson play like him and let his love spread like 1960s
Fantastic, demais - maneco - Porto Alegre -RS - Brasil.

Stringbean got his first pair of pants like that from Little Jimmy Dickens
That is true.
Love me Stringbean !1!!
Mercy
Die Bohnenstange ist ein exzellenter Musiker
Granny couldn't get enough of this trash, and I couldn't get enough of granny
R I P Porter, Stringbean and Granny 😫
the first person that started saging there pants LOL
He started a craze for the blacks in the ghetto! Lmao
Growing up I had several albums of "bean". Also Dave Macon. I liked Bean for his whimsical act. But he hardly ever changed chords on live tv. He did on Run Rabbit Run but mostly he would play in open G and play melody only. Out of harmony. Great entertainer. Master of banjo??
Kinda like Merle Haggard said in one of his songs...” back when the country was strong”...
Back when a song was still a song. By Davin James
Now I know where Ritchie Blackmore got his technique!!!
Claw hammer banjo
Y'all realize Stringbean was gangsta before gangsta was a thing? ha ha
Stringbean! The original "sagger"!
When he died so did Nashville.
He was sagging his pants before any of these whippersnappers
Nice jacket
😊😊😊
So hip hop cribbed from the stringbean
Other than String had talent.
The Original Gangsta! 😃
He was saggin before saggin was cool. Lol. His ways with the banjo more than made up for it tho. Can definatly see why he made the cut all those years ago.
Couple of tall boys
Holy cow that takes me back a long time good old string
That s. Funny
He is funie....
Piute Rancareia
I like country music. But couldn't understand the song.
What tune is this?
Pretty Little Widow
If you're from below the Mason Dixon it's "Pretty Little Widder" ;)
lonny donegan "battle of new orleans"
Tje
his pants not sagging
String got the idea for the pants from little Jimmy Dickens.
You mind is sagging!
It’s his fault there’s saggin britches.
I don't think String appreciated Roger Miller butting in like that and also making that comment about Strings music improving.
Who ever murder stringbean I don't like it
