    Wonderful blessing. Thank yall. How great this country would be if we all had families that taught about Jesus and raised children with those values.

    I'm still 👀 watching the video but I wanted to say thank you to Tipper before there are a thousand or more comments. Thank you Tipper for sharing your life, your stories, your family, your gardens, Brasstown, Appalachia and all of the music. Honestly, in the last few years I have found a brand new perspective on life and most of it came from watching you, Matt and the girls.. God bless you and God keep you ❤❤

    Paul, you have done so much and continue to do so much to preserve your family’s music history. Wonderful job!! There are no two voices I enjoy more than when you and your dad sang together. Absolutely heavenly harmony.

    They were right up there with the Louvin brothers but chose to take another route. Proclaiming the gospel for Christ in song is the biggest achievement anyone could accomplish. Thank you Paul for your hard work in making this happen.

    Thanks, Jerry. I know what you mean. Although it was a huge hit when it came out in 2013 (#1 in 16 countries), I only recently discovered the song "Hey, Brother" or Avecii's Anthem. As I listened to it, I wished that Pap could have heard it, especially when I saw that the official video features US Marines. I felt the same way a week ago when I discovered a beautiful version of Satan's Jeweled Crown done by a young man on KZread. I just have to comfort myself with the thought that Pap has gone on to bigger and better things!

    I watched the whole thing and I completely enjoyed every single track and the commentary and I just love that they were offered if they would go secular a record deal but they just wanted to proclaim the gospel that's just amazing to me that's what stood out more than anyting accept for the music course. In such beautiful beautiful Harmony and you can feel through their words their love for the Lord, I just literally can't say anything else except that. I watch you all the time every video on both platforms. It's been hazy the last couple months because I had surgery found out it was botched during healing and have to go through it again I was angry at first but who am I to gripe because there's always somebody worse off. I have so much love for you guys I pray your seasons or wonderful, we're in the triangle area Raleigh area but in near Bunn North Carolina in the country where I do caning and gardening myself. I pray for your guys health and happiness everyone have you guys and everyone period. Maybe we can do a meet and greet. I sing also that would be absolutely amazing for me. But if not I completely understand. You guys be healthy and happy and we all love you guys, each and everyone of you!!!!!!!!

    Jamie, so sorry to hear about the bad surgery. We hope that everything can be well corrected. We're so glad that you enjoy our videos. There's a lot more to the story of the demo session in Nashville. Maybe someday, I'll do a video about just that.

    As I continued to listen to this wonderful treasure/music that you all have I can hear some "Everly Brothers" type of guitar playing. They clearly must have incorporated some of it from this type of music. Just love this~

    I'm listening now for second time. Doing work and listening and I guess I wasn't paying attention first time. The first track has made me have to stop to compose myself (got things to do in town and can't go crying). THIS SHOULD BE A HIT right now. I can't imagine anything more appropriate. Made me cry. 🙏🏼 💓 12:39

    Paul, this was awesome. What a tribute to the Wilson Brothers, and what an interesting discussion between the cousins. Thank you all for the effort you put into this project. I enjoyed learning more about the brothers, from their philosophy on music itself to the finer points of salvation. I spent a couple of hours listening and re-listening and watching and re-watching. I can't begin to understand most of the technical aspects you discuss, because I play piano only with music, not by ear. Hence all the re-listening. Look forward to part b.
