I was 15 years old and sitting in the front row with my brother, absolutely one of the best nights of music I’ve ever heard. These guys were in my opinion in their prime 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thanks for all your contributions Jan!

It almost makes me cry to hear this great version of J.D.'s New South Band. He always had good bands but this was my favorite group. So much talent!!! They sound sooo good but sadly they and many other great bluegrass bands are now playing with the great Angel Band. I miss them and I sometimes get a lump in my throat listening and remembering. Rickie and Jerry, from this group, are still with us carrying the torch and for this I'm greatfull. I'm 77 yrs old and so thankfully for all the great B.G. music I've been blessed with during my life here on earth. Thank you for all your postings.

Wow. Just WOW!

This has fulfilled my life long dream of “being” on stage with JD Crowe and the New South! Amazing.

The instrumental at 15:05 is called Sledd Ridin', written by Dale Sledd who played with the Osborne Bros. Crowe would later record this song on the Flashback album w/The New South. This is such a FINE recording, wow!

This is wonderful. Thank you for this musical gift. JD and the New South were the best ever. This brings back so many memories of my time living in Kentucky back in the early '70's. My friends and I would drive from Louisville to Lexington every weekend to live the experience. The tight harmonies and instrumental virtuosity are so beautiful, it's almost painful. RIP Bobby and Tony. JD, keep on keepin' on.

Lawdy, this is gold!

Man. What a classic moment, Thanks, Jan, as always. So much greatness preserved here. Band's vocals are soooo tight. Tony's voice has that strange quality of his early singing days. Just slips wonderfully sideways into your heart. Amazing. And JD's backup. Holy crap. Clear as day. Love this. Ricky's great adventurous breaks (and usual thin sound) and early Jerry being jerry. Nobody could put a ban together like JD. CLASSIC!!!!

I am thrilled to hear Tony play some licks I’d never heard him play. Son!

Wow! Just WOW!! So much history beautifully preserved here. Thank you!

Who the hell could put a thumbs down on this?

There's great separation between left & right speaker if you listen to this through headphones, Tony & Ricky's voices respectively, crystal clear. Great for learning the harmony parts. Jan, Tony's voice at 6:12.

Well, I for one don't care for the uneven, badly balanced stereo separation, makes it really hard to listen to through quality headphones. Luckily, some awesome person wrote a great little Chrome plugin called "toMono", which directly translates the audio to mono. I use it a lot.

Its a beautiful thing. Thanks Jan!

Awesome video!! Ricky Wasson told me he had a live set from McCabe's. I wonder if this is the one? They apparently played there on the 13th of August as well. This is about the cleanest recording of one of their live sets I've heard.

Who's playing the second banjo?

@redlinemando

Billy Ray Lathum is playing the 2nd banjo. Sorry if I misspelled his name. If I'm not mistaken, Billy Ray played with Tony's dad way back in the 60's as well as being a part of the Kentucky Colonels with Clarence White, Roland White, & Leroy Macknees. I don't recall the bass player's name, but they were on an episode of the Andy Griffith Show called (Mayberry on Record), or something like that. Clarence was playing the famous 1935 D-28 that Tony would later buy from a liquor store owner Clarence had pawned it to. He pawned it just before he left to play electric guitar for the Byrds. Tony is playing that same guitar on this set. The guitar that he would play almost exclusively for his entire career. I'm sure it was a sentimental moment for Billy Ray seeing that guitar again so soon after Clarence had been hit & killed by a drunk driver.

Jan, Bobby;s last name is spelled "Slone."
