the crowd has no idea how good this is. This is a new genre of music just coming out of the womb. Five virtuosos allowing each other, encouraging each other to be unselfish. The sum is so much greater than the parts, but each part is an unselfish virtuoso. Phenomenal.
@@grendo45 The op was talking about the live crowd that was present at the filming of this show. The amount of time elapsed between then and now would be irrelevant.
While I understand you saying "arguably" to remain PC JamesScott, there really is no arguing that point. They were unequivocally the best acoustic group assembly. Each man near the top position or at #1 on their respective instruments. Virtuosic!!
Strength In Numbers. Yep, I've always said that same thing about them. You can make arguments for certain individual musicians to be added or subtracted, but really, these guys can play more than I can even listen, so...
It’s now December 2022 and I can still never get enough of this. These guys get better with age and what a legacy they will leave and open to the next generation of musical genius. So honored to continue to have them performing live. Almost no words necessary…… just listen and be mesmerized.
Bela is the master , Edgar is sublime and faultless, Jerry is god on a dobro, Mark O'Connor is the greatest multi-instrumentalist in the univers, and Sam Bush just thinks he's in a metal band, I love them
@@Trollificusv2The best rhythm player in the universe (Not that he can't pick either.) Fleck, O'connor, and Douglas are unarguably the top of the top, of the top, at their instruments (especially at that time.) Myer is the only outlier here, he's merely tied for the top of the top of the top of is instrument. The Newgrass Revival version of this band was awesome too ... got to see them play live.
Superb, Amazing. Saw them on PBS at 1am after work. Mezmerizing, blew me away. Truly masters at their work. Never stop listening to them even if it's the same songs over and over. I wonder if the people in crowd who never heard of SIN know they're in for a treat. Can't stop smiling when i watch them play close up's. Yeah go! looks fun when yer good,right?
I first heard this CD in 1992, and it is still one of my all time favorites. Five amazing musicians with great respect for each other, and having fun at the same time. Hard to beat it.
Far Out I've been looking for this one I was looking and listening when first came out I'm almost certain the unlabeled video tape is in one of the big boxes
The most delightful marination of genious musicians ,I have ever heard......If it were played as elevator music ,I would never leave.........Being put on hold,would be a pleasure if this music were played. ! ....it is now on my desktop for great listening while working on the computer.......BTW. almost didn't recognize Mark without his trademark hat .
In a way, this reminds me of "Indian" music a la Ravi Shankar in that it requires concentrated listening to get a full appreciation of the incredible musicianship here. I defy anyone to categorize this music. It's not bluegrass, spacegrass, jazz, country or anything else. This is musician's music. I'm going to see Bela Fleck and Chick Correa later this month.
Nope. Many, many years ago at the Birchmere in VA, I saw Jerry, Mark, David Grisman, JD Crowe and Tony Rice together (don't remember the bass player). Jerry and Mark are still the best dobro and fiddle players there are. Tony is still the best bluegrass guitar player there is, and his health is failing. Whether JD is a better banjo player than Bela is arguable compared to Alvin Breeden, Steve Vestral or Buck Trent doesn't matter, Noam (pickles) Pikelny is the best I've ever heard. I've been waiting 40 years to hear a bluegrass guitar player better than Tony (I'm not holding my breath). Don't get me started on how good Chris Thile is
Strength in Numbers was an all-star side project comprised of Sam Bush (fiddle/mandolin), Jerry Douglas (dobro), Béla Fleck (guitar/banjo), Mark O'Connor (fiddle/guitar/mandolin), and Edgar Meyer (bass). The artists were familiar with one another, having performed in the same circles for years, as well as on the same stage -- in numerous incarnations -- at the annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Strength in Numbers grew out of appearances by the group as sort of the de facto house band at the Colorado festival; Telluride Sessions, its only album, documented the easygoing newgrass fusion that Strength in Numbers would often perform there. Accomplished bluegrass musicians all, the members of Strength in Numbers were also steeped in the jazz and classical traditions, which found their way into the arrangements on Telluride Sessions. Most of the bandmembers said there would never be another Strength in Numbers album after the first. But since each musician continued to play on the others' albums and appear at festivals such as Telluride, the potential for more genius was there. ~sez FATMATHATCHY
If you like this music I highly recommend Bela Fleck's Tale's From The Acoustic Planet Vol.2; "The Bluegrass Sessions" CD (1999). It features Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Stuart Duncan, Tony Rice & Mark Schatz w/Special Guests Vassar Clements, John Hartford, Earl Scruggs and more. It's very similar to this type of pickin' and the CD is like 79min. long, they couldn't have fit more music if they tried! There's a couple of "trilogy" pieces (three themes linked) that are wonderful. I nearly wore that disc out for the first year! They played at least one of the pieces here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ----Gary
This is the pinnacle of the country-inflected jazz these guys were into in the late 80s. On the Strength in Numbers CD, I think each member contributed two compositions. I loved this stuff back in the day -- it's compositionally complex, the performances are virtuosic at points, but I can't really listen to a whole hour of this any more. Give me the roots.
I remember watching this on PBS in the early '90s. It was my first exposure to Bela, and I started to follow his music from there. Though I like all of these guys, and I love this performance.
I can't believe there was a time I didn't know these guys. God, what I missed for years! I can't believe the amount of talent on that stage. Masters, all!!!
This music takes me to another time and place. Many of the worlds problems were solved(or created) with this music as the soundtrack... ahhh, to be able to go back there
That would have been awesome but I least I saw him many times with most of them - even before he lost his singing voice. What a tragedy. He was as great a singer as a guitarist.
I appreciate being able to watch this amazing, rare footage of some American master musicians jammin together in their early years. Thanks for sharing. A Sam Bush and Mark O'Connor reunion is overdue.
Watched this on PBS with Dad. Got to laughing at the Bon Jovi tune for the opening song. I still followed by big hair ways with Bon Jovi, Great White, and Poison. But also followed NGR, the Flecktones, Sam Bush, John Cowan. Mark O'Conner, etc. Like the yin/yang of musical tastes. Then the Flecktones had a music video on MTV or VH1 for Sinister Minister. Yep, full circle. 24:30 for example....became a Flecktones song.
I was at that show. I think they advertised it as the Nashville Masters. Wish I could find the video stash and the audio stash of the Lonesome Pine Specials.
These boys have more talent in their fingernails than most of the "stars" today have in their whole body. Mark, Jerry, Bela and Sam are each the best at their instruments that I, for one, have ever heard. Love 'em!
Believe it or not, my Uncle(s) knew Sam Bush in KY. He showed up at one of our reunions as both of my Uncles played music. I played Keyboards at the time of maybe 14, We all jammed for hours in a cabin on Nolin Lake! I'll never forget that moment as I did not know who he was until many years later. At the time I had a Juno 106 and I'll never forgive myself of letting it go when the digital age hit. This would have been around maybe 1985/86ish? Also, knew the Kentucky Headhunters as well.
What a treat. Been a huge fan of all these guys forever but didn't think I'd ever get to see this kind of footage. Thank you SO much for making this available. Dang, tears before breakfast even!
Jazz and Blue Grass have always been very similar in their intricate structure. Now take the virtuoso in each instrument in Bela Fleck, Edgar Meyer, Jerry Douglas, Mark O'connor and Sam Bush and Strength In Numbers resulted. I bought this CD 15 years ago it seems. Was blown away. Thanks for posting. I didn't know a live video of them existed.
Might as well be 5 Hendrix's up there in my honest humble opinion. Glorious contributions they all have contributed to to my life/perspective. Live music keeps the artists soul under a microscope and I love it the most for that. Wish there was a better recording of this show but what a legendary gem. Peace and music .
The last guitar lesson I gave..Was this piece from Skip,Hip and Wobble before I knew this existed ...thanks for post ...Nice to how our ideas worked or not ....at this point I realize I still love this whole process regardless of my limitations due to Huntingtlns which I've fought for 16 years ...I'm not giving up cau'se it easy ....besides, I'm back where it's warm and still friends in the Biz ...My strong point has always been words ...Did four TV performances ....Poetry and some stories for the director who I have the lesson to who would visit Pete Seeger before he passed ...We traded Woody stories
Perfect timing, no drummer needed! And this is from a drummer. Very involving music and easy to groove with. Was familiar with Bela Fleck a little and just recently Jerry Douglas a la Alison Krause, but these are so great. A must listen!
Have had a recording of that show since 2001...been on "heavy rotation" pretty much since then...oh, to have been there...the original birchmere...wow...
I saw them in Santa Fe at the Paolo Soleri Amphitheater. Being a banjo player, I guess I went to see Bela, but came back talking about EDGAR! He's astounding. An all virtuoso band.
I am very pleasantly surprised to hear Mark O'Connor playing guitar. I had never seen him do that before. His guitar chops are equal to his fiddle chops.
I can respect that. At this level of musicianship, it's extra futile to try and sort out any "who's better?" arguments, because we're doing it with blown minds!

They fit together like finely tuned gears in the best Swiss watch. The timing and syncopation are as delicious to the ears as rare prime beef to the mouth.
This is the music that Music listens to.
real
Strength In Numbers. The album these guys recorded is one of the best acoustic records *ever*
A masterpiece. All these guys are “musicians’ musicians”. The best in the biz.
Absolutely
Greatest super group ever

Well put.
i think this performance was in the 80s, more than 30 years ago. Wouldnt call that just coming out of the womb.
Check out the Goat Rodeo Sessions and the Punch Brothers. More of the same sort of thing.

If you can't see and hear this as a turning point in string music history, you don't know strings.
Them thar's a gaggle o' jacked-up fellers if ever I seen one....Marvelous....absolutely marvelous ......
These are some of the very finest musicians in the world. Do not take my word for it. That's what the players say out there.

Astounding.

I call it symphonic new grass lol
Watching Edgar play is always a revelation. Such economy of movement, while producing amazing music.
If ever there was more talent together in one room, I have yet to see it. Alone these guys are masters. Together they are incredible.
Amen

For all you youngin's out there, look up a guitar player named Clarence White. He was killed by a drunk driver around '71.
Steve Johnson Amen to that. Folks seem to have forgotten Clarence. I saw in in '70 with the Byrds. Terrific. On electric too.
"If ever there was more talent together in one room"
Not since The Beatles broke up.
New heights in acoustic music. Stunning performances by unbelievably gifted musicians.

Talk about pure magic -- imagine seeing them on a gorgeous Saturday night in Telluride against the backdrop of the San Juan mountains. Incredible!
This is amazing. Can't believe how old this is and how young they look. Agreed their talent is unmatched.

Breathtaking. Echoes of traditional forms shaped into something completely unique.
Sam is also their drummer with that mandolin, his style is so powerful...
He's their incarnate superhuman metronome, also.

Extraordinary, simply the best that Americana has to offer!
'Five Mullets' would be a great band name for this group.
I remember watching this on PBS in the early '90s. It was my first exposure to Bela, and I started to follow his music from there. Though I like all of these guys, and I love this performance.
I love how focused Bela is, particularly on the first couple tunes. Dude just has his eyes and soul on the music.
I can't believe there was a time I didn't know these guys. God, what I missed for years! I can't believe the amount of talent on that stage. Masters, all!!!
If you like this, check out Skip, Hop and Wobble. Edgar, Jerry, Russ Barenberg with Sam on the side.
This music takes me to another time and place. Many of the worlds problems were solved(or created) with this music as the soundtrack... ahhh, to be able to go back there
Fantastic performance! I would like to see Tony Rice up there with them.
That would have been awesome but I least I saw him many times with most of them - even before he lost his singing voice. What a tragedy. He was as great a singer as a guitarist.
At the 24 min mark, Bela explains why they mostly excluded guitar.
I appreciate being able to watch this amazing, rare footage of some American master musicians jammin together in their early years. Thanks for sharing.
A Sam Bush and Mark O'Connor reunion is overdue.
Jay Ingram I tried to like this one twice. Didn’t work.
A 2nd album from Strength In Numbers is overdue.
Edger Myer - intonation, tone, feel and composition - he's got it all in spades. I love that duet with Bela - so sweet and inventive!...

I could listen t these guys for DAYS!
( 5:23 ) The main reason i started playing mandolin i learned you can head bang in bluegrass.
Joe Craven will vouch for that.
Bluegrass sessions and drive. In my opinion, some of the best tunes and talent on the planet.
True masters right here. It does not get any better.
Have the CD - love it They moved Bluegrass into modern phase.
Hey, I'm a baby boomer Rock n Roll Mex/American!

Beautifully expressed!
This is a TREASURE.

first and only real super group Strength in Numbers
these fellas are unreal
the 8 people that gave this a thumbs down. you know they are doing it wrong
I am very pleasantly surprised to hear Mark O'Connor playing guitar. I had never seen him do that before. His guitar chops are equal to his fiddle chops.
Sam Bush is a rocker in a bluegrass band.
What a band!
I think this is my favorite video on UA-cam.
Billions in talent!!!
This is Strength in Numbers -The Telluride Sessions
We used to call it Acidgrass
I love acid anything, especially acid trips. Saw God once, on 4 hits, driving!
I can respect that. At this level of musicianship, it's extra futile to try and sort out any "who's better?" arguments, because we're doing it with blown minds!
