    Hats off to the recording engineer. Phenomenal sound. At first glance, this appears to have been captured as a simple stereo recording. The closer you look, you'll see additional sources - a spot mic on the guitar, a DI from the guitar pickup and cello, and (most likely) an omni hanging from the rafter above the xy mic. Someone clearly knows what they are doing. Well done.

    I am familiar with everyone playing on this number except for Jim Miller who I was curious about because I've been learning to play old time guitar for the last several years, and was hoping to find a video of him playing Chinqaupin Hunting that showed more of the guitar. I started to research him on the internet and was sad to learn he passed away recently. I've found nothing but high praise for his musicianship, and plan to explore his music more.

      This is a great idea. He was an early member of Donna the Buffalo and played on many of Tara Nevins records and up until recently was a member of the Western Centuries. Happy hunting

    I think they should show up at like a contest for string quartets. Just because it would be funny. They were good though. I liked the harmonies especially. Also, I noticed that silent communication that only musicians understand. Toward the end, they all looked around as if to say "We've been playing this song long enough now right? Yeah, it's about time to end it next time around. Ready and... *hold on last two notes and stop."

    Michael James Kott played the cello (3/4 size) on a strap. He played with Plank Road and Ace Weems and the Fat Meat Boys in Lexington, Va in the 1970s. I was in those bands and Bruce lived in the area then and played with everyone in all those bands and several times played in them. Rashad is aware of Michael Kott. Just want to give the devil his due.
