And Tony Rice smiles down from heaven ❤️
wanted to say the same thing
And Thank You, Sierra Hull. I had the pleasure of seeing you perform in Knoxville with Tommy Emmanuel. You may recall that night Tommy announced mid program he was just informed it would be last night of the tour as it all future ones were canceled due to Covid.
Yes, he would approve. Thumbs up to Sierra.
@@69dlx84amen, guaranteed he'd love this
this song, in the right hands, never gets old. it just continues on its timeless journey down some dusty old road in your mind.
I’ve learned during Covid time that Sierra is a world class guitarist as well as mandolinist.
And devoted to tradition!
And all the people said: Ya don’t f*cks with tradition
Do NOT mention covid a liberal disease of election stealing. It was a minor outbreak by demokrauts that made it a pandemic
As a couple of others have noted, Norman Blake wrote this great song and included it on his Whiskey Before Breakfast LP, an album that I took a chance on when I bought it new in 1976. And I have been happily following Norman and Nancy Blake ever since. I saw the Blakes play a bluegrass festival in Delaware in the late 1990's and after their set I stopped by where their RV was parked to pay my respects. While there an elderly couple asked for a photo and Norman and Nancy very graciously and patiently stood with the husband and smiled while his wife tried for the longest time trying to figure out the camera. By the way, this is a wonderful rendition by Sierra. And I love Tony's version too!
Norman Blake would approve! Superb!!
And Thank you Norman Blake.
I listen to a lot of good music. However Ms. Hull if beyond excellent. She is elegant, tasteful and disciplined. No guitar pyrotechnics needed. Just Beautiful, thoughtful music.
she's my favorite for a long time now. Also her presentation skills are second to none.
We do it up righteous in Tennessee when it comes to making the strings smoke and the fingers bleed. We sing and play for our ancestors.
Thank you, Norman Blake. Great job with that one, Sierra.
Wonderful. Norman Blake may have wrote it but Tony Rice stole my heart with it at Ella Guru's in Knoxville in 1987. He had His brother Wyatt, Roy Huskey Jr, Vassar Clements and Jerry Douglas with him shortly after releasing his Church St. Blues album. I sold my electric guitar, got an acoustic and haven't looked back sense. Tony was my #1 musical instrument influence. He will truly be missed. I'm watching this on my 49th birthday. Next to the Mars Landing footage, you have provided me with another highlight to my day. Thankyou and GO BIG ORANGE
Thank you, Norman Blake.
what a talent! thank you for sharing it with us
In a word: authentic. Another one: masterful. Wow. Just wow.
What a gorgeous voice, She bring joy to so many.
Love here treatment of the genre . True talent ...I wish her all the best
Love this tune, so well performed!
Cheers from across the big pond!
Outstanding...... What a talented beautiful young lady !!!!
Thanks Rounder! Thanks Sierra... 💖💖💖
So much here to love!
Amazing Job of that one Sierra !! Your a true star
What a talented gal - Awesome performances!!
Jesus I have tears running down my face listening to this for the first time. Absolutely beautiful. Incredible talent. Thank you so much for sharing this Sierra. You are amazing.
Wow!! 👏👏👏I love your voice an' your songs so much Sierra.
Beautiful singing and wonderful pickin!. Thank you.
That was some awesome picking and singing. I really enjoyed it. Thanks 👍👍👍❤️
Thank you Sierra Hull! A wonderful tune, wonderfully played, with wonderful vocals and a smile for the cherry on top. What a delicious treat! Great work on the video editing too. :-)
Finally, someone that can smile while playing and singing it. ❤
A beautiful, talented young lady right there!
Beautiful vocals! Such an incredible talent. Love her music. 25 Trips is a great album!
Effortlessly perfect!
Awesome!!!!
An outstanding talent.
UA-cam played this when I wasn't paying attention and started to get emotional and didn't even know who it was for a few seconds. She makes this song her own. I can't tell if the singing is better (suits the song perfectly) or her trademark tone and clarity (maybe the first time I've ever really heard all the notes.) I'd love to hear this on an album.
Simply awesome Sierra! Also, thanks again for playing in our little neck of the woods in Mt. Vernon, WA. We loved having you!!
Love the sound of that Hayes box. Great job Sierra- thanks!!!
Good lord. What a perfect performance. Clarity is the word... and that, even for a talent like hers, takes WORK.
This is by far the best version i heard of this song!!!
Sooo beautiful and talented.
Sierra's recent excellent tribute to Tony Rice is made more sincere as she's posted this excellent rendition of Church Street Blues in Tony's honor and with her excellent skill. Thank you for keeping Tony in our hearts.
So great, Sierra. I got the bug to learn this tune when I saw Tony’s instructional video. Now I can pick a couple things up from you. And that’s how it’s passed down. And that’s how it’s done. Nice job on a classic.
Really lovely delivery. Thanks for doing it.
Freaking awesome! ❤️
I’m gonna learn that song if it takes me the rest of my life. You’re so good girl! Love you so much.
Absolutely. There's some great tutorials on youtube. Step by step I am working on it, few months project I think!
Little bit each day
Oh, you are charming Mr.Robinson 🍀 So I keep my fingers crossed.🍀 All the best from the Czech Republic.
I was so fortunate to have, Sierra play on my Moonshiner Album 10 years ago already. Sierra is a wonderful human & to witness what she does so seemingly effortless is indeed a gift to us all! Love & Light To You All out there in UA-cam Land and Beyond! 😉 🍀 💜 🎶 👻 🐾 🤗 🐶 🎸 🎊 🎉 💞
Beautiful, as usual.
Excellent performance, thank you.
Well...that was awesome.
Clean wonderful picking. Thank You.
uh oh look out she's got it. Tony would love this! Great picking while singing, got to be tough. BRAVO!!
Woop, yeah!
Awesome!
I was just glued to the screen
Beautiful
wow Just an incredible musician at a very high level.. Her technique and dynamics here are stellar with unreal execution of hammer on's, pull offs and cross picking....Great singing and flat picking with great dry tone on that Hayes.
The most beautiful thing I've ever heard in my 56 years on this earth.....
So you're still a youngster!
... and thank you ... Sierra Hull ...
outstanding!
Really good, thanks.
Omg, thats amazing, thank you. as natural as Tony Rice. swhat we r looking, enjoy!
I love it!
I hope Norman has heard this. I’m sure both he and Tony Rice would be proud. A few original licks make this her own.
Thank you, Sierra! Thanks for keeping songs like this alive. I’ve been listening to 5 different versions from 5 different artists and hers might be the best. She’s an American treasure.
The most difficult version to play is by far Tony’s. I know people who have tried to learn his version and gave up. There’s so much to unpack in TR version; the phrasing, cross picking, chord runs it’s no joke.
Bravissima ❤
Awesome
World class talent.
Great job
That was awesome!! I love it!
Great cover. Sierra is just amazing. Tony would be proud (even though is not his song). She carries the mantle and has all the respect of Sammy Bush (a good ole friend) and all top tier Bluegrass performers. Wonderful!!
Beautiful voice
Wonderful performance ❤
Great cover and like Ed Helms said, it’s not fair she’s this good at both guitar and mandolin and singing. Sierra is a great musician
This young lady knows the guitar neck as good she does the mandolin, beautiful picking on a great Tony Rice number. Excellent job Ms Hull.
Now that's one big guitar ... and a beautiful tribute to Tony Rice. RIP.
No - tiny girl, but enormous talent. I think maybe Justin has encouraged her to play the guitar more, since she has very few equals on the mandolin.
I was trying to remember the 1st time I heard Church Street Blues. Thank you Sierra for telling me. Thanks again Tony Rice.
Thanks again for writing Church Street Blues, Norman Blake.
Norman Blake
Wow...Talk about nailing a song...:) Excellent...
well done sierra. a fitting eulogy to Tony Rice.
Fabulous work young lady 👏
great picking lovely singer.
Wow that's great...regards from the Philippines Klaus
Well, I’m sure Tony is proud.
Or Norman Blake since he wrote and first recorded the song...
Woahhhhhh
💖💖💖
So nice
Love your picking, Sierra. Clearly modelled on Tony's version, but you made it your own. Beautifully done.
shes the best...
Wow! This is a fantastic version and excellent flat picking.
I'm Always working on this song. I love the way you play this - it's beautiful. I can't decide if the live version is better than the album.
👏👏👏
Great playing! I'm sure Tony's proud!
Norman Blake
@@micsayre that's Tony's version, no?
nice!
Linda e talentosa.
Watching this today after hearing about Tony Rice’s passing, simply an amazing song and Sierra’s voice and fingerpicking is so beautiful it makes me cry. Rest peacefully Tony Rice, you will be deeply missed 😭😭😭
Dam that was good.
Makes me want to use my guitar for kindling... hahaha... beyond excellent ... musicians get better with age.. imagine 5 10 15 years
Crazy shit it seems so effortless to you and thanks for your voice ! Definitely the best version of this song after tony rice’s one haha ! Blessings from France love you !
This is a very very good version of this song !!!! Very good guitarist & Good singer Sierra!! Got very nice separation in the tunes you really hear every note Clear!! Good guitar to is it a Hayes guitar??
Damn, that's witchcraft. Well played!
You have got yourself a Portuguese fan , you sing well , you play even better and that guitar sounds great , what is the make of it , yes , i know part is on the fingers , i also play.
Rick Hayes Guitar. Thank you for asking I looked at the headstock and researched it and learned something new.
When this came out I didn't appreciate the little differences that have been added here. I've been polishing up the tune in my own playing, so I've been looking at it critically again, and there's some nice, subtle additions to the guitar part that I'll have to steal lol.
bel hommage à Tony qui vient de nous quitter!!
As adorable as adorable gets
