Russ, you desperately need to make an album and put this song on it. This is pure bluegrass gold.

Volume too fast!!! 4:45

Damn, I've listened to this at least a hundred times, and those banjo breaks never get old. No less all the others.

That man can sing with the best of them.

I just discovered this yesterday and I'm at 30 views lol

Real true bluegrass here makes the hairs on your arm stand up like Lou Reed of Seldom Scene said "if it don't send the chill bumps running up and down your sleeves then there ain't nothing in it for me"

This is by far one of the best times this song has EVER been played. Let that Banjo shine son.

Greatest compliment I can pay is that The Osborne Bros would have been proud of this version.

A little J.D. A little Earl...a whole bunch of Russ=Super Banjo Pickin! Great stuff!

I love playing this song. If that lead singer doesn’t have a dip in I’d be surprised

Pursed lips sing differently than open mouths. I didn't know that myself. Who knew? Watch George Jones sing with a almost closed mouth!

Where else can you have this much fun with 4 chords ?

@ianvalentine9728

It's only 3 chords.

Russ, man I gotta say, the biggest compliment I can give on your pickin' is the same thing I say about J.D. and Earl....I hear any recording of any of them and all I can do is count down the time till I can pick up my own banjo and play! That's the good stuff right there hoss!!

Really enjoying this December break jam series! Great group of people here!!! Hope there's more videos to come.......

Just love this, have to listen to it almost daily! thank you!

If people don’t absolutely love this and recognize the extreme complexity of bluegrass music and these extremely talented musicians, then is NO hope for them!! And heck you all don’t even play in the same band together. I love to watch Jesse on mandolin and I love Russ killing that banjer!! I mean Russ, I give you a GoldStar man!!!

idahoduckhunter You need a singer like Jesse in every jam. He is a spinning rolodex of song ideas that rock! 🤘🏻

Man, that banjo sounds so fine, I can't hardly stand it!

The usual suspects. Just picking and grinning. This puts a big old smile on my face. Thanks.

Killer rip of this tune. The more I watch Jesse Brock the more I like him. He's filled with it.
