      And Thank You, Sierra Hull. I had the pleasure of seeing you perform in Knoxville with Tommy Emmanuel. You may recall that night Tommy announced mid program he was just informed it would be last night of the tour as it all future ones were canceled due to Covid.

    I'm amazed as others are Sierra Hull's talent beyond the strings. I hope to see you live, but I will always remember her quest for perfections on You Tube videos. Extraordinary people with your talent are far and few! Thank you 😊

    As a couple of others have noted, Norman Blake wrote this great song and included it on his Whiskey Before Breakfast LP, an album that I took a chance on when I bought it new in 1976. And I have been happily following Norman and Nancy Blake ever since. I saw the Blakes play a bluegrass festival in Delaware in the late 1990's and after their set I stopped by where their RV was parked to pay my respects. While there an elderly couple asked for a photo and Norman and Nancy very graciously and patiently stood with the husband and smiled while his wife tried for the longest time trying to figure out the camera. By the way, this is a wonderful rendition by Sierra. And I love Tony's version too!

    Wonderful. Norman Blake may have wrote it but Tony Rice stole my heart with it at Ella Guru's in Knoxville in 1987. He had His brother Wyatt, Roy Huskey Jr, Vassar Clements and Jerry Douglas with him shortly after releasing his Church St. Blues album. I sold my electric guitar, got an acoustic and haven't looked back sense. Tony was my #1 musical instrument influence. He will truly be missed. I'm watching this on my 49th birthday. Next to the Mars Landing footage, you have provided me with another highlight to my day. Thankyou and GO BIG ORANGE

    wow Just an incredible musician at a very high level.. Her technique and dynamics here are stellar with unreal execution of hammer on's, pull offs and cross picking....Great singing and flat picking with great dry tone on that Hayes.

  • @tombarnhart7673

    @timcollins3204 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    TH-cam played this when I wasn't paying attention and started to get emotional and didn't even know who it was for a few seconds. She makes this song her own. I can't tell if the singing is better (suits the song perfectly) or her trademark tone and clarity (maybe the first time I've ever really heard all the notes.) I'd love to hear this on an album.

  • @dgale1023

      No - tiny girl, but enormous talent. I think maybe Justin has encouraged her to play the guitar more, since she has very few equals on the mandolin.

    So great, Sierra. I got the bug to learn this tune when I saw Tony’s instructional video. Now I can pick a couple things up from you. And that’s how it’s passed down. And that’s how it’s done. Nice job on a classic.

    • @austenrobinson2747
      @austenrobinson2747 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The most difficult version to play is by far Tony’s. I know people who have tried to learn his version and gave up. There’s so much to unpack in TR version; the phrasing, cross picking, chord runs it’s no joke.

    When this came out I didn't appreciate the little differences that have been added here. I've been polishing up the tune in my own playing, so I've been looking at it critically again, and there's some nice, subtle additions to the guitar part that I'll have to steal lol.
