Makes me think of a woman I knew 25 years ago in Fairbanks AK .... she sang this song so well.. and played guitar ... Sure would like to see her again ...
Looking for this version - Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson And Ricky Skaggs With Alison Krauss The Banks Of The Ohio. It is the best version,I've ever heard of this song.
Your list of names is almost right,except ....it's "Earl Scruggs" instead of Lester Flatt ... taken from the "Three Pickers " in about 2008 or 2009 ua-cam.com/video/heypFw8snt8/v-deo.html
Yes it is. It is part of a genre of murder ballads that is hundreds of years old and dates back to songs sung at public executions of murderers in England to tell the story of why the person was being executed. Minstrels were paid to sing them.
@rebeccamouse9294. I hear that those rabbit holes can be kind of sketchy. I’ve heard tell that there might be DMT fairy’s in them. And there is no telling what kind of crazy nonsense a person might come to believe 🧚♀️ once they have encountered one
We'll miss you, Tony.
We will all see him again on the banks my friends...
The Tony Rice and Norman Blake collaboration has to be my favorite bluegrass album
A classic. Maybe the best rendition ever...…..

Probably the very best example of a banjo player backing up a vocalist ever by J.D. Crowe, not to mention a great break in open F.

VIVA TONY RICE !!! MARAVILHA DO BRASIL !!!
노래가 참 좋다
primera vez que lo oigo me parece muy bueno
+miguelangel capote ¿Entiende las letras de la canción?
entiendo algunas cosas si, mi ingles es bastante bueno, gracias
No hay problema. :-) Me dió risa como suena tan linda, pero se trata de homicidio!
imagínate tu
Old murder And nice song..
maybe they're against solving unrequited love with murder? Great song, dark subject matter.
What album is this?
It's from his self-titled album, "Tony Rice" from Rounder Records released in 1977
I really wonder why that 1 person dislikes this song
So dark.
Hey, it's Bluegrass.
That genre has _the most_ cheerful murder songs. =)
How old was he when that picture was taken?
Richard Perkins I think he was 11.
Release Date:1977, Born: June 8, 1951, He was 26 years old.
@@theinfamouscletusherringbo8134 Thank you.
Is this a song about brutal murder?
Yes it is. It is part of a genre of murder ballads that is hundreds of years old and dates back to songs sung at public executions of murderers in England to tell the story of why the person was being executed. Minstrels were paid to sing them.
@@rebeccamouse9294where’d you learn this?
@@Santiago_Fernandez I went down a rabbit hole one night and found someone’s dissertation about it

Love the voice, but this is not an upbeat tune imo.
