    It is with a heavy heart we say goodbye to one of the most iconic voices & musicians in bluegrass. David Anthony “Tony” Rice passed away yesterday, Dec 25, at his home in Reidsville, NC. Few will ever match his skill & influence. Rest in Peace, Tony.

      @@bradyross2379 thanks t6o whoever this up. My only time in Hampdem CT was to find an undertaker to take care of my brother and my mother's journey to the next stage, and t hear tony sing this now. Here in FL he means a lot, there are a lot of great musicians drawn into the music like the great Mark Johnson by Tony and his brothers and other kin who still work and live here in Florida

      Saw him and slightly different company round this time at Jormas' "Fur Peace Ranch" (Also on You Tube), devoured a "Hot Tuna Melt" at the outside stand, cool moist night especially after Tony made a prophetic comment about the oncoming outside break and adjustment. Had to laugh again mwhile taking care of our brought on munchies. Then more Tony-Thank you Tony & FPR, add the Unitarian Church here! American Wooden Music-A clean elixir get some on you best if the cultures are live now in 2023.

    Would love to go to his grave and spend some time with him. My greatest acoustic Guitar influence!! No one can flat pick like him. On a plane all his own. My Dad, as a bluegrass band leader, had his collection and I’ve listened to Tony for almost 40 years. Unique..... R.I.P. my Friend.

    Bryn Davies just told that bass what was what, I tell you! Best from the hills of Virginia. Cork
    P.C. Tony was a phenomenal player along with many from the Danville, Pittsylvania, Henry, Floyd area on and on who inspired and taught me the vagaries of the acoustic guitar...they gave me a blessing which will last my lifetime. To be able to play music is one of the 3 great joys of life: family, the love thereof, The Lord- whoever they may be, and music.

    Over the years I've always enjoyed watching Tony Rice give that little nod to the other musicians in the group. He KNOWS what he wants to hear and more importantly when we should hear it too. Such a gift to us all! Each of these superb musicians complement each other with their impeccable timing. Thank God for the gift of music and the talented musicians who deliver to us such beauty!

      @dap777754 Рік тому

      Other than by you, by who else? The TR guitar has been dunked in water, buried in sand (supposedly) and rebuilt and reglued so many times you can't really call it a Martin or a D-28. The best guitar I ever heard, not that you're interested, was that Gallagher played by Doc Watson. I'll listen to Doc any day of the week. TR - nope.

    • @k.c.8655
