I love it when two monster banjo players work together and not step on each other. Wish more people in local jams would understand that concept.
I also wanted to comment on Clay's incredible musical ability. The first break after the second chorus, everyone just kinda stood there looking at each other for a second like "Ok, so who's going to take a break???" then after several seconds of silence go by Clay steps up, picks up where the break was supposed to be and doesn't miss a beat. Gotta love it! These guys are great!
It just speaks to the selfless camaraderie and community which is American Bluegrass music.
That's part of what is great about bluegrass music. It is a community thing, even up on a stage, and not a stiff performance. This is a jam session with incredibly talented players --- fun for them, fun for us. They would play the same way if thousands of people were there or no one were there.
I love watching Ron Block and the other banjo player (not sure of name) go back and forth on licks. I love that lick around the 2:51 mark from the player in the back. Cool!
That banjo player in the back is not only one of the bluegrass foremost banjo players, he is a monster fiddle player too. His name is Ron Stewart.
Sierra Hull shows why she is a mandolin protégé and has awesome vocals as she shares the stage with Adam Steffey,Ron Block, Clay Hess Ron Stewart and John Bowman. Thanks for sharin.
I'm sure you really mean prodigy; a protégé is something quite different.
And in fact she's not either one any more. She USED to be a prodigy, now she's a fully-realized world-class musician: mandolin, voice, song-writing, producing, and overall enhancing the world through music.
I see Sierra play and I simply melt!
Clay killed the guitar blast. Love it. Ron Block is amazing.
Sierra is amazing.I saw her at the Capital Theatre in Greeneville,Tn in December with Barry Bales and friends.Great concert
I was lucky to be there inside the Cumberland Caverns to hear these two bands live. Great Show!! They joined forces at the end.
i just don't know where to begin to say how much she blows me away. so young and up there with others that have been playing way longer
Sierra’s break is just plain awesome!
Great sound and Sierra is just a treasure to hear on the mando. charlie tew, raleigh,nc
Ron Block: legend.
real music still is alive as is hopes for new talent , the best and luv the setting
oh my god!!!!!!!!!!! sierras voice is so beautiful!!! there is still hope for bluegrass
Just saw both of these bands in Portland yesterday. Sooooo much talent between the two!
God d**n, Ron Stewart lays the sh#$ down!!!!
Great session!
I sooooo wish I had been there to hear it live!
great musicians on this recording and well played. i enjoyed!
Wow! That's a lot of people on that stage...watch yer step folks!
Clay on fire
I have heard this song, "Big Spike Hammer' performed sooooo many ways, here it is a little different too.
Sensationell
I agree with Julia...EPIC!!!
Underground. Some men spent most of their lives underground, for the sake of the wife and children. Suckers, yes. But the best kind. Bless 'em.
sweet
Wow is that actually a cave? That is really cool
@theGisforGravy1 yeah,they are having a good time,they are funny things going on,enjoying theirselve's.
Just saw Sierra at Grand Ole Opry a few weeks ago. If I weren't fat, bald, old and poor, I'd ask her to marry me.
guitartec That's fine...I'm asking Sarah Jarosz...I'm not fat or bald, so I think I've got a chance...LOL.
I still feel I have a chance, and my wife feels the same way.
shoot, don't let that stop you. you didn't mention ugly so i'm sure you're quite a catch. i have all your great qualities and have to add mentally challenged and ugly to my description. i guess it could be worse but i don't want to think about it.
Adam Steffey gettin DOWN!! Lol literally and with a mandolin. It’s about a tossup which break sounded the best between his and Sierra’s....
Sierra's was too good..
@rocmaven He's coming to Washinton in Dec. for wintergrass!
@MegaBigdodge Collings D3, I believe.
@hallmark498 - Lots of power in a petite little package!
pickin bluegrass in a cave,i gotta see that,wheres that place at!?
SUN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder if Keith meant to sing the second verse again... Even the pros make boo-boos sometimes! They were having a blast though, that's what I like to see.
It would seem the boys are making good-natured fun of Sierra's vertically-challenged stature (3:16)!!
@MegaBigdodge Its a Adi/Mahogany Rick Hayes dreadnaught.
HAY DELLA GET THE PICTURE
@darmp64 Cumberland Caverns.
You can't find two better banjo players...
um…Ron Block, though a great flat picker, is the banjo player on this vjd, 4 what it's worth
she can"t help stsnding out with what she doe
it is not exactly an osborne classic. it is an older song than that. certainly flatt and scruggs did it before. i don't really know if it is even original to them.
It is an Osborne classic. Bobby Osborne wrote it.
she
Are you trying to imply that they shouldn't have a good time?
fine musicians together on one stage -- but why the pedestrian tempo? too slow -- and solos lack inspiration and soul, including Hull's cautious overly-refined work. And why oh why is she guffawing on stage when the singers are trying to engage the audience with the song? I thought the audience comes first -- not the musicians and their egos. Maybe it's ok so long as you're a cute young thang....
+USAbzdur If you don't enjoy it, go watch something else. The rest of us loved it!
