I was at the second night at Theatre At The Ace Hotel in Los Angeles. I was blown away! It was also my first time seeing Marty Stuart And His Fabulous Superlatives, but it was definitely not the last!
Omg, I saw the Byrds at the Fillmore in the mid-60's, and until this I thought that experience was just gone into memories. It is just indescribable, what that Rickenbacker and those harmonies have invoked. I am 15 again for a minute, like when I heard "Tambourine Man" for the first time...
I had been a Byrds fan since back in the day, and my now departed ex Patty thought she was the Sweetheart of the Rodeo - we saw the Byrds back then. My son took me to the 50th Anniversary concert in Raleigh NC to celebrate my 78th birthday. What a treat that was, and one of the best times I have ever had at a concert. And being taken by my son made it even more special. The music lives on, and it was just great seeing Marty playing the B-bender. That is quite a story on it's own - go look up the UA-cam interview about his meeting Clarence's brother Roland when Marty was 14, and how he came to own the B-bender. It couldn't be in any better hands Wow, what a history. Cheers
The Superlatives are a musical treasure. Marty is a guy with such deep roots in country, bluegrass, rockabilly, rock, and whatever moves him. He is clearly having the time of his life on this night!
If their latest effort, Altitude, didn't show that, Nothing Will! Fantastic display of what they picked up during the past 5 years touring with , some of The Greatest in Music , history! Namely, Hillman, McGuinn and Miller!
Had the pleasure and privilege of seeing the Tour at the Carnegie, Homestead (Pittsburgh) and was very happy to see Marty and the Fabulous Superlatives at a free outdoor show two nights ago. Never knew the later were Dick Dale aficionados. Great show.
Been a massive Byrds fan since Mr Tambourine Man and I've loved Chris Hillman since then. Wish he would tour in England while I'm still compos mentis enough to appreciate his music!!!
The album cover is a Jo Mora painting. Jo lived in Carmel, CA. Many of his art is in the Monterey Museum of Art. The Sweetheart was from the California Rodeo in Salinas in the 20’s.
This is as close to a Byrds reunion as there will ever be and Clarence is there via Marty Stuarts talented hands !!! The only concert I have ever went to that make me cry happy tears !!!
SIMPLY THE BEST OF FOLK ROCK IN THE WORLD EVER" MCGUINN, HILLMAN AND STUART; SWEETHEART OF THE RODEO, 50TH ANNIVERSARY THE MASTERS CLASS OF FOLK FOR THOSE THAT HAVE NO IDEA OF REAL MUSIC PLAYED BY THE BEST"!
There's way more talent than one stage can possibly hold and every player deserves a spotlight but I hold Hillman in high regard for his ability to command an audience and recall tiny factoids that manage to place 50 years of fine musical artistry on the stage that it deserves. Thank you for compiling this outstanding historical document.
I hope through some method of communication with the afterlife Gram Parsons knows that Sweetheart is now a beloved masterpiece. He put a lot of work and heart into the album.
Terrific compilation, and imaginatively conceived! Kind of a "Sweethearts Plus". Marty and the band are the band to go to for this, Kenny Vaughn, Chris Scruggs, Harry Stinson, all of them exceptional performers and instrumentalists. I felt that Gram Parsons received less credit than deserved for his contributions to Sweetheart, but I also consider "Hickory Wind" the better choice between songs at that moment in time as described in the documentary. I'm more than pleased to see the ghosts of Clarence White and Gram Parsons alive and well. Thank you.
I still have that album. I didn’t realize it until recently that my old friend, Jim Dickinson (Of Memphis) was the Byrd’s manager up until that album was recorded.
What a fantastic video compilation of some wonderful tunes, wonderfully played by some wonderful musicians. Thanks for taking the time to put this altogether and load it for the rest of us to enjoy. Really made my day today. Thank you.
I feel very lucky to have seen Marty and Superlatives several times at Stoughton Opera House in Wisconsin and Roger McQuinn also came there as a Solo act playing and talking-I didn’t think it could possibly be topped- so thanks for compiling and sharing this ❤❤
This is so fantastic to see. As a massive Byrds fan but live in the UK, I did not get to see the tour and I was so gutted. But watching this is such a great experience. Thanks so much.
Just wonderful! I would have loved to have seen this show. A great pity that the tour did not get to the UK where the Byrds are still held in huge esteem.
😊 Great! My father-in-law watched Marty's show every time it was on. I've always dug this album and Farther Along by the Byrds. John Hartford and Clarence White were there in spirit.🙉
This would be a wonderful concert to reprise post-pandemic! Do note Marty Stuart & the Marvelous Superlatives rounding out this superband ~ and also how I found my way to this video. Terrific!
Can't believe it's been more than 32 years since my wife and I first laid eyes and ears on guitarist Kenny Vaughan ( in the cowboy hat here) playing for Sweethearts of the Rodeo (named after The Byrds album, of course) at the 1988 Washington County Fair in Hillsboro, Oregon. While getting their autographs after the show, I asked Kristine and Janis where they got the guitarist with the Buddy Holly glasses and they told me they stole him away from Denver, Colorado.
@@flautalee3090 I sat in the county fair grandstand that July afternoon with my binoculars trained oh Kenny Vaughan's Fender Strat, because the sound coming off those strings was so impressive. Saw him a second time that year when Sweethearts played Portland's Country Music on the Waterfront Festival. I got to talk to him a bit after their set, as he was collecting his equipment from the stage, and he couldn't have been more generous with his time.
I saw this show in Rockville, Maryland, in early December, 2018. It remains one of the best shows I've seen in more than 50 years of attending concerts. This compilation is magnificent; Bravo!
Couldn't agree more on naming it one of the best concerts ever. I'm hopeful fans that didn't have the opportunity to see the show in person appreciate it as much as those of us lucky enough to sit in the audience.
Marty is an amazing mandolin player and a pretty damn good guitarist,.He would tell you himself he could never flat pick like C.W. as long as he has a hole in his but! What has really impressed that after buying the iconic guitar from Mrs. White Clarence's famed Telecaster with B Bender, he has worked and practiced tirelessly with loads of effort on the technique that Clarence used in these songs? it really is terrific, he has made Clarence's guitar live again. The man himself would be so proud of you Marty. Ally.
Wow! This is awesome! I've been a Byrds fan since High School in the late 60s. I've met Roger and Camilla several times and Chris once. Although I tried hard to get to see this show in Cleveland, I didn't make it. Thanks so much for compiling, editing, and posting this! I wish I could add this to my extensive Byrds cd and dvd collection.
This brings a tear to my eye was it that long ago? I remember reading the album cover and listen to this record like it was yesterday my brother brought the record home but I played it the most.
I realize I found this video a little after it had been posted, but I have to say a "BIG THANK YOU" for sharing it. What a GREAT CONCERT it would be to see in person. Marty Stuart has a great band and they all work well with Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman...the idols of my youth. Such GOOD MUSIC.
@@commontater8630 What’s so cool about Marty owning Clarence’s b-bender is that Marty plays it so much and remembers Clarence to us, too. He’s a great guitarist and we are reminded of Clarence as he plays-he’s keeping Clarence memory alive.
Saw Marty Stuart last week in Glasgow and just came across this video. Thank you so much to whoever it was that created this extraordinary compilation - wonderful.
I do my part to let people know about Marty Stuart's music nowadays because I didn't know ! But When I found out ,I said this is really good☝...seriously
the Truetone interview with Kenny Vaughn brought me here.... I enjoyed this concert footage immensely, thank you for sharing... only improvement I can think of is if Croz could have joined them for a couple of numbers.
Excellent Show, Thank you for Sharing it Edw2dz.I was Lucky to see Rodger (solo) in NY end of april 2019 FANTASTIC. And Joan Baez fue nights later.A never to be forgotten trip to NYC.
Saw them in Akron. Drove 900 km the day of the show, rode back the other way the next day. Probably sang You Ain't Going Nowhere 20 times during that trip
Just watching Kenny Vaughan play is worth the viewing time. This is great.
Marty Stuart makes any band the best.
Amen!!
I very clearly remembering buying this album on a snowy December 28, 1968. I paid $2.99. It has shaped my musical interests ever since.

Interesting how he is playing Clarence Whites B Bender Telecaster. Real talent on guitar
wow .. chris scruggs is so talented .. bass / guitar / and a very fine pedal steel ...
I wish that I had been there! I usually don't like flashbacks to the past,but I ready, willing, and able for this one.!
The original album changed my life for the better ,Ya'''ll !!! > Thanx Forever ! >>> J D
Thank you. So many songs from my distant past...and less distant. Bringing in the Superlatives was genius.
This tour was Marty's idea & his agent booked it.
The spirit of Clearance White continues forever in every great b-bender player 😊
Had the pleasure and privilege of seeing the Tour at the Carnegie, Homestead (Pittsburgh) and was very happy to see Marty and the Fabulous Superlatives at a free outdoor show two nights ago. Never knew the later were Dick Dale aficionados. Great show.
Saw it at the Ryman ! Once in a lifetime! My childhood heros and the savior of Country Music in one show ...awesome video!
Been a massive Byrds fan since Mr Tambourine Man and I've loved Chris Hillman since then. Wish he would tour in England while I'm still compos mentis enough to appreciate his music!!!
A group of friends and I saw the tour at Mountain Winery in the Bay Area. What a great night. Loved every second.
Perfect lineup. What a band, what a treat for the soul !
Saw this at the Egg in Albany NY. Jaw dropping performance by MS and the Superlatives. Marty is a true master!!!
WHAT A SHOW! When it can make you move and sing every song, it has the power to change your life and make it merrier.
The album cover is a Jo Mora painting. Jo lived in Carmel, CA. Many of his art is in the Monterey Museum of Art. The Sweetheart was from the California Rodeo in Salinas in the 20’s.
Ty!❤
Thank you for putting this all together. A treasure of great American music performed at the highest level. A compendium to cherish.
I was in L. A. When they played. It was magical.
This is as close to a Byrds reunion as there will ever be and Clarence is there via Marty Stuarts talented hands !!! The only concert I have ever went to that make me cry happy tears !!!
Saw a gig on the tour at the Akron Civic Theater. So beautiful. Thanks to all.
Thanks for posting this piece of history, I only wish I could have been there. This should be a full length documentary.
Became a fan the Summer of 1965 and still goin’.

How cool was for Marty Stuart and his band. There would be a limp in my throat playing those songs with the Byrds.
My god there needs to be an official vid of this … Thanks to the people who got this together … It sounds great
I was lucky enough to see this show in Albany .. one of my favorite shows
Time Between a great forgotten Byrds country rock tune from the Younger Than Yesterday album. I still have it on original vinyl and on CD.
There's way more talent than one stage can possibly hold and every player deserves a spotlight but I hold Hillman in high regard for his ability to command an audience and recall tiny factoids that manage to place 50 years of fine musical artistry on the stage that it deserves. Thank you for compiling this outstanding historical document.
Love the psychedelic solo Marty!!! Well done. Perfect!
Masters all, at work….🎸
I saw Marty and the band in St. Louis on 2016....I totally missed this gem. Glad I went down this rabbit hole!!!
I havent heard such a good recreation of these runes...astonishing!
What a great compilation! What great tour. I would have loved to have been a part of it.
I hope through some method of communication with the afterlife Gram Parsons knows that Sweetheart is now a beloved masterpiece. He put a lot of work and heart into the album.
I believe he probably does know, but if not, Emmylou will fill him in when she gets there.
I have a hunch I'll watch this regularly 🙂but I do regret not getting tickets before their show sold-out in Durham, NC 😞
This is fabulous work! What a great concert! I’ve heard clips of this show but not like this. Much appreciated, truly. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉❤❤
Music is love. This is the proof.
Thanks for the work you put into this. I was able to see this show in Atlanta.
Terrific compilation, and imaginatively conceived! Kind of a "Sweethearts Plus".

Much agreed. The best songs on the album are done by Gram Parsons. He was the real deal.
Reliving my teenage years. Love it. Chris Hillman was always amazingly diverse. The 8 Miles High at the end is awesome. Chris is rocking it.
I got to see this show in Austin. Right up there with some of the best music I've ever "seen."
I loved when Marty had Roger on RFD TV back in the day? Love THIS that they toured together EVEN MORE!
I would love for them to do this show again…such great music.❤
On behalf of the markets that were bypassed by this tour, thank you for stitching together this performance.
Beacon Theater....Hopewell Va......one of the finest concerts I've ever attended....been at it for over 50 years
Pure quality. Love it!
Been a Byrds fan since high school 1965, have a number of Roger's albums. He & Chris Hillman moved to Nashville some years ago.
I still have that album. I didn’t realize it until recently that my old friend, Jim Dickinson (Of Memphis) was the Byrd’s manager up until that album was recorded.
Thank goodness Marty Stuart and his superlative band helped pull this together! Loved it so much, we saw the show in Los Angeles at the Ace.
I have met both Roger and Marty. They were very nice guys. Marty let me hold the TELE
muchísimas gracias....... I was super fortunate to get to fly to SF to see this in the Mountain Winery in Saratoga
A very special moment in time. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to watch and respond.
Incredible musicianship. Really enjoyed. Good job by all putting this together. I’ll be watching it again soon.
I saw the show at The Ryman In Nashville.. goosebumps the entire show
Yep! Electricity from the first chord. Also, kind of an appropriate return to the scene of the crime.
Awesome! Very inspiring.. thanks
What a fantastic video compilation of some wonderful tunes, wonderfully played by some wonderful musicians. Thanks for taking the time to put this altogether and load it for the rest of us to enjoy. Really made my day today. Thank you.

This is so fantastic to see. As a massive Byrds fan but live in the UK, I did not get to see the tour and I was so gutted. But watching this is such a great experience. Thanks so much.
You are most welcome. The video is for all Byrds fans but especially those unable to see the all too short tour.
Just wonderful! I would have loved to have seen this show. A great pity that the tour did not get to the UK where the Byrds are still held in huge esteem.
Agree completely… still very popular in UK
Lucky that the tour happened at all thankfully
😊 Great! My father-in-law watched Marty's show every time it was on. I've always dug this album and Farther Along by the Byrds. John Hartford and Clarence White were there in spirit.🙉

Just amazing! Would love to have heard this ensemble do "Chestnut Mare".
Can't offer enough thanks for doing this.
Saw the very last show of the tour in Fort Lauderdale. It was exceptionally good show, but then they are exceptionally good musicians..
Catching this just before I get to see Roger play his solo show in Gilbert AZ, October 2024
I saw this show in Rockville, Maryland, in early December, 2018. It remains one of the best shows I've seen in more than 50 years of attending concerts. This compilation is magnificent; Bravo!

Kenny is a guitar monster! one of the most dynamic players around...
Such an awesome show.. thanks for putting this together and posting it.. Marty Stuart and his band are so great
Was at the show at the Emerson Colonial Theatre in Boston, MA, just a fantastic night!
This brings a tear to my eye was it that long ago? I remember reading the album cover and listen to this record like it was yesterday my brother brought the record home but I played it the most.
Came here after watching Joe Chambers interview Marty. Wow. I have a whole new level of appreciation for Marty Stuart.
He’s a legend in his own right.
Nice version of Hickory Wind with Chris H on vocals
Hey thank you for compiling these and presenting them this way - really appreciate it
I realize I found this video a little after it had been posted, but I have to say a "BIG THANK YOU" for sharing it.
What a GREAT CONCERT it would be to see in person.
Marty Stuart has a great band and they all work well with Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman...the idols of my youth.
Such GOOD MUSIC.
A masterful collection with such good sound quality and views, thanks for making this wonderful compilation
Appreciate your kind comments. Putting it together was a delight.
This is really good. Not bad for "audience participant" recordings. Well-worth watching.
Thanks for dong this. For some reason, management did not want any fan shot video which is truly short sighted.
Thanks for posting this! Long time Byrds fan
Wow I never knew Marty Stuart played guitar. And played it so good. And sounded like he's playing a pedal steel. And sounded like Clarence White!
Wow. If you didn't know Marty as a guitarist, what did you know him as? He plays mandolin as well, of course, but...
@@commontater8630 Actually didn’t know anything about him until I stumbled upon this video. I just knew he was a country singer 😀
Marty’s the real deal…❤🎉❤
Very talented. And owner of Clarence White's B-bender!

Great job piecing together the show! We were at the last night in Ft Lauderdale! What an awesome night that was!
Thanks, Bill. I envy the Ft. Lauderdale fans. You heard two songs in the encore not played at any other show to my knowledge.
Excellent Show, Thank you for Sharing it Edw2dz.I was Lucky to see Rodger (solo) in NY end of april 2019 FANTASTIC.
And Joan Baez fue nights later.A never to be forgotten trip to NYC.
You are welcome. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Beautiful! How can anyone down vote this??
Appreciate that. Glad you liked it.
Thanks ...what a great band
Glad you liked it. Marty and the Superlatives were a perfect complement to Roger and Chris.
