I love to listen to Lester talk just as much as I love to hear him sing

[@joelcaldwell4852]

Earl mastered a wonderful instrument, the banjo. Lester mastered a wonderful instrument, his voice. Two of the greatest in bluegrass music!

[@johnjr.mayaen4104]

Thank you amazing singers you are an angels the gift of god. You are a strongly snd powerful singers of OPRY

[@danwatkins2677]

Lester is the most famous bluegrass legend but there is so little video about his life that I know. I have listen to him for 40 years and this is the first time I heard him speak off the stage. Awesome clip

[@samekstrom7681]

Don't forget Bill Monroe and Ralph Stanley

[@bobbiposton6215]

This clip touched me so much, I'll tell you why, Lester is my great uncle, my grandma was Clara Flatt Poston and when I heard this it answer a question I've had for years why did daddy buy ma a banjo for mother's day and why did she get mad and say I told you I would never play again. I was very young and didn't understand and I have asked around and found out that Lester was talking about ma

[@annetteparker3471]

Lester Flatt was and still is the Most powerful Bluegrass Performer in America and he and Earl Scruggs are part of American Music History !

[@homerspeedy9397]

Thanks for sharing brings back good old memories

[@SeeCSeesCC]

Nice. ❤️I was so blessed to see Flatt & Scruggs as a little girl. My family knew what would matter for me to be exposed to through music

[@robinhood480]

Thanks. What an amazing time in America..... love Flatt & Scruggs.
But almost every style of music from the 50’s , 60’s, and 70’s was performed with great sincerity. 100% commitment to the music.
Thanks for sharing this.

[@jws5833]

Awesome. Love seeing a young Marty Stuart on mandolin.

[@kennytate1660]

I've never been the kind to ask for autographs but on that day at about fifteen years old I ask Lester and got it. Thirty years later I lost it

[@duanelukawesky3459]

Loved Lester and earl on the Beverly hillbillies. Lester was an absolute giant in bluegrass along with Bill Munroe

[@whitneyfjohnson]

Bluegrass is the best music genre ever Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs love there songs

[@frankstecker3198]

[@lemmykilmister9979]

God rest Lester’s soul God I love him

[@garylam6233]

Truly an icon in his field his show was such a peaceful time .
It was so relaxing and entertaining,his voice and stage presence was a masterpiece.
Martha White couldn’t ever have picked a better sponsor.
Better days gone
By,but won’t be forgotten!

[@jorgecontreras7631]

Lester Flatt !!! Lo más grande !!! 😉👍

[@dean7045]

A young Marty Stuart on the mandolin. Already a virtuoso.

[@fuzzybutkus8970]

Not one video on Y/T of Lester show him in anything but a suit and tie. No one wore a cowboy hat better than him.

[@delorespuckett8056]

Thank you for Sharing love it

[@bushwacker3292]

Long time favorite

[@jw9426]

This is fantastic, thanks for posting!

[@joshuabiddix2923]

I can't help but hear Keith Whitley's impression.

[@weldonpinder7295]

The foggy mountain breakdown part looked like it was speeded up. You could see by their head movements and body parts it was

[@lionofjudahlambofgod9132]

He became a Christian. Praise The Lord, he's with Jesus.

[@rustymullins6623]

That’s good to hear…!

[@jordanwaibel5292]

What great video! Thank you for sharing this

[@lennybrideau8999]

This clip was between late 1977 78 or 79 because paul warren fiddler player with flatt pass away earlier in 1977

[@WillBlindYouWithLight]

Wow
Thank you

[@scarbrough.]

The best there ever was. With Pete Karm, Kenny Ingram, Tater Tate, Curly Seckler, Charley Nixon...Marty

[@jayjaynella4539]

American traditional music is vastly appreciated overseas. One does not find this out until one from the US actually travels overseas.

[@lizbethsdad]

A young Marty Stuart on mandolin!!!

[@bobfromoilcity7274]

And harmony vocal.

[@jordanwaibel5292]

They need to bring back that Martha White jingle-song

[@jeffboyd9101]

Still personally I believe that the Dobro always rolled better with MR FLATTS voice .

[@bethlee2919]

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing it.

[@catfish24]

That voice was made for Blue grass music.

[@DB-cx6cb]

Was certainly a shame when Earl’s boy persuaded him to break from Lester, very sad indeed. Both Complimented each other in a way no one has duplicated since.

[@edmondcamp2878]

I believe if Lester and Earl had stuck with pure bluegrass in the late sixties like Lester wanted too they would have continued to have great success and Earl could have taken his sons on the road with them as an opening act.

[@badface9955]

Sheer class

[@SuperOlds88]

Lester does a pretty good impression of Keith Whitley

[@HemiJoel]

Lester Flatt, one of the greats! what year was this recorded?

[@davidyates9366]

mighty fine pickin and sangin

[@randysimmons9838]

He's cool

[@peterkvoriak6600]

Lester IS america

[@f5mando]

Young Marty Stuart on mandolin, too!

[@bobsink6236]

Just the way I like it ?nice and slow.

[@whatposterman1222]

One of the most talented sidemen ever, Tater Tate. He was a multi-instrumentalist.

[@ronlackey2689]

Is that drop thumb method he's talking about also known as Clawhammer style?

[@Bascomblodge]

Tater Tate on fiddle and Blake Williams on banjo: both later on mainstays with Bill Monroe as Bluegrass Boys, but who is on the bass? thanks.

[@WilliamSmith-gk3wd]
