I have been a Lover of Dobro music since early childhood. Uncle Josh Graves of Flatt & Scruggs fame was primary the culprit that got me addicted to it. This was well before other Dobro players such as Jerry Douglas came along.
@@timgraves5498 -- Yes Josh did. I watched him very regularly on the Martha White's Flatt & Scrugg Show on TV on Saturdays when I was very small. Although I liked the whole Group and All, Josh's Dobro and he were my main Attractions, seconded by Earl Scruggs' Banjo. I saw him several times at The Station Inn in Nashville. Oftentimes, he and Kenny Baker would be performing together. I also saw you too Tim performing on Stage at The Station Inn. THANK YOU Tim for the Awesome Performances.
I've loved stringed music since I can remember. If I never hear another horn or woodwind....God be praised! But now strings are another matter..... Guitar, violin, fiddle, harp, piano (which is actually percussion), and slide guitar music. I'm old now but was a Duane Allman fan from day one until today and still going. He played a Gibson SG or a Les Paul when he played electric slide but played a Dobro....a National Doulian ???...... has always had the secret of catching my ear no matter what's going on. In Spanish they don't "play" the guitar. There are two verbs in Spanish to say "to play". Jugar (who-GAR) is to play sports and Tocar "Toe-CAR) is to play instruments. Actually Tocar means "to touch". So, El toca la guitarra = he plays/touches the guitar. Well, you have the touch on the Dobro. You could therefore say about you: "Ese hombre si toca el dobro". That man DOES play the dobro. Thanks and keep on "tocandolo"....playing it/touching it.
Enjoyed this very much. Never heard his music before. He sounds a lot like Jim Farmer (behind early Marty Robbins) and Little Roy Wiggins (behind Eddie Arnold and George Morgan) which some would call "the old style" I call them "Pioneers". Enjoyed very much. Mighty fine!
You mentioned on your "slants" video about how barely anyone plays th I s old style anymore. well, sometimes older is better. I think you are the man! I'm gonna keep watching and soaking up that old time feel on my resonator.
Many thanks for upload ! Nice song, fine playing, nice picture et great sound quality...this all for our(*) pleasure to hear and "see" one great dobro player. From France, best wishes and...merry Christmas. Jo (*) I transfer each "if I like" video to my musicians (28 members), "fans" of our "string band and country music/bluegrass friends.
That is so beautiful! Thank you for posting. I've loved the sound since I first heard it on WSM way back in 1966. I actually used proper punctuation as a sign of respect and gratitude for your wonderful playing.
Hey Jim i listened to you year's ago you are one of best Dobro picker's i have heard ,i have been playing for over 20 year's , i noticed that you don't use a capo?, at least on videos i have seen, i don't use a capo either for the reason most time's you have to retune, i'm thinking that's reason you turned your dobro to "A" turning ? well anyway Jim hope your'e in good health and still playing i have an Original dobro that i bought back 20 some year's ago it's given me a lot of pleasure over year's Jim, so you take care stay safe and be careful, wonderful dobro video!
Hi Stan, thanks for the nice comments ! I do occasionally use a floating type capo if I'm doing a fast song that's not in G or A depending what Dobro I'm using. I don't have to retune though. I usually like the A tuning, as that is what Oswald used. Jim
Hi again Jim, i stand corrected i watched one your other video's and seen the capo, Well anyway where do you get your backing music from? i know some musician's record their own backing track's, hope i'm not bothering you Jim, take care stay safe.
Hi Tom, It's the same as putting a capo on the second fret when in "G" tuning. Low to high A-C#-E-A-C#-E. Lighter strings are a must, I use 018-018-022- unwound 032-042-042.
That sounds like my Uncle Edward playing ❤❤
Mighty Good Dobro Playing🌹
You are great God bless you. I love the sound alot

👌 awesome thanks 😊
Uncle influenced us all didn’t he. I am so glad he did. What would the music industry be like without dobro? Prob pretty boring

Would love to have a complete tab on this tune, but Jim never got around to finishing it
Don't forget Bashful Brother Oswold
Brother Oswald
This is where I got the 'bug' to start playing Dobro back in 1950. I'm still at it. That '27 sounds like Oz's guitar .
That was GREAT
If my dad was alive today. I give anything
Релакс. Мне нравится!
Love it
Sweet :)
Love it!
Wow. Whew i love it. Play more. Who is this.
That's me Jim Warren. Thank you for the nice comments !
Great Job Jim,is that a round neck. What kind and size strings do you use sounds like Bro Oswald. Merry Christmas
Mind telling me how to tune in "A"
Hi Tom, It's the same as putting a capo on the second fret when in "G" tuning. Low to high A-C#-E-A-C#-E. Lighter strings are a must, I use 018-018-022- unwound 032-042-042.
Thank you much!
Jim, are you still playing dobro?
Is it just higher than G tuning?
forget the rest you are listening to the best.... dick whatley in tasmania....
Jim who
