Jerry was skinny back then....So was I! That old R.Q. Jones was a major break through in the dobro world. Rudy was the first to really make um sound good. This is classic stuff. You've heard it over and over,but you never get tired of it.
I remember when Jerry's first solos came out on the Whites and Ricky Skaggs records. Nothing like them had been heard before. These two also arranged some jazz tunes like "Spain" by Corea.
The fiddle player I believe is Hoot Hester. He played a lot back then on Nashville Network and Nashville Now shows. Good player. It's definitely not Mark o'Connor.
uhhhm... the mullets look petty tame, plus the color changing eye-glasses... I'm gonna guess early nineties.... i think jerry actually looks younger now!!! damn they can play son...
I hate the sound of a bass player ahead of the beat, it makes all the solo instruments sound lazy or draggy. Nothing against Jerry or Bela, but that bass player has no feel.

and i'm diggin jerry's spectacles
Looks befit the show, it's killin music, that is to say, very nice..IMO
Classic
agreed 100 %. Mark is way above him and all others :)
This was definitely Jerry’s studliest period.
Yes! I was guilty too.
I completely agree. Maybe the monitor situation wasn't the best. At least it's not throughout the whole song, just sporadic.
The 80s were terrible, but this is great!
Play 2nd open then note it at the 1st fret, pulloff of it then note 3rd at 2nd fret and pulloff of that than do the same thing over and over
I'd love see dueling banjo's with a dobro

I can´t help thinking Hoot looks like an amish that sneaked away to have a lil fun ;-)
Flux!
@PeterMayer I dont understand that yankee slang
My Mother had glasses just like jerry's. No moustache though.
@MrCooterbruzer Yeah, English is hard to understand....
we all looked like fucking idiots in the 80s, this is actually not bad...check out John Cowan's look from around this time if you don't believe me
@zmgriffith You got me.
That is NOT Mark O'Conner!
@PeterMayer yea we only speak spanish down here. how about go shovel some snow smart guy.
damn. bela fleck is just a kid in this video.
Yeah Jerry Douglas truly is matchless but he does kinda look like Will Forte in MacGruber in this.
@MrCooterbruzer And what the F is wrong with that?
@toffetoff lol
Did everyone in the early/mid eighties wear coke-bottle glasses?

LOL!! Jerry is wearing rapist glasses and looking creepy as fuck.
sounds like a bunch of yankees
